    What's your occupation?

    I worked for a land surveying company for 3 years. Got to be crew chief a few times on a 1500 acre state of TN job in Soddy Daisy. I really enjoyed my time in that career. We worked all over Nashville doing mostly residential, as well as outlying counties with larger acreage.

    Where do you buy your meat?

    I'm 30 miles north of Nashville. I can find butts on sale for $0.79/lb multiple times a year and just about any day of the week for $1.39/lb. ...sorry just wanted to brag.

    Butter on the counter....

    We have a few like this that were passed on. Room temperature butter just tastes better in my opinion.

    Smoked porkchops question

    I prefer to brine, but its certainly not necessary. I'd smoke indirect with the chops starting really cold and the smoker pretty low. I'd pull at 136ish then finish over a hot grill to pretty up the exterior and get some crust.

    Ribeye Roll

    Sure sounds just like a whole unsliced Ribeye. Can you post a picture? I suspect it's a trimmed ribeye. Sliced and you have a Ribeye steak with the fat cap and tail already off. Just a guess.

    Calling the sauce gurus

    I like cider vinegar, little brown sugar, squeeze of ketchup, squeeze of sweet baby rays, and then some rub. I usually just tweak it til it tastes right.

    Calling the sauce gurus

    Have you ever just done a basic vinegar sauce/seasoning?

    Stubb's original bar-b-q sauce???

    Noticed this the other day. Had a fake hickory or liquid smoke taste.

    Chuck Eye Steaks (Finally found some)

    I think, as usual, this is dead on true from Chef Jimmy. I get them sometimes that are almost identical to a Ribeye and other times they are inconsistent and resemble a sliced roast. The title and often times lack of familiarity with the cut seems to give a large amount of leeway to the...

    Smoking Prime Rib already cut into steaks

    Those look awesome! I've been looking at getting a Sous vid cooker. I was curious as I ate a thick cut Ribeye off my green egg tonight. When you sous vid something like a Ribeye, how much more internal fat is rendered?

    FIRST TIME CHUCK EYE STEAKS

    Chuck eye, in my opinion, is the best secret in the steak world. I luckily have a place that has them often for 5.99/lb. They are also closer looking to a Ribeye than not at my store, and I haven't had issue with them falling apart. I do find them a little firmer than a good marbled Ribeye...

    CI Seasonin..

    I exclusively use CI or Carbon pans. I just cook in it, make gravy, fry potatoes, bake in them. I cook at home a lot so they get used daily and it seems to do fine. Mine are in great shape, some old and some new.
