just a lil something i threw to gether to get done while brisket is resting. bought some of those big portabellas, yano softball diameter. i have never tried them before but we gonna wing this. i hope this turns into something edible. took the stems out of the shrooms, diced, a stick of celery also diced, a couple slices off a vidalia onion diced, and some minced garlic. sauted all in butter til tender(wanted to do it with some bacon and in the bacon fat but all outta bacon-bob gonna have a field day on this one!!!) so just used butter about a third a stick. added some pepper and some chefs shake and spooned equally into shrooms. topped off with mozzerella cheese balls-the fresh type mozzerella and into smoker. here a before pic



will put a finish pic and report on taste. like i said i have never had these mushrooms before but being i like all other mushrooms i see no reason why these would not be good. thks for ckin my qview!!!

Sounds good to me, erain!....I love portabellos....they're sort of a "meaty" mushroom, if you will. They stand up well to various types of cooking without turning to mush.

Can't wait to see the qview!

Eric

chef_boy812 is right, ya they do look like mallows... and your rite about the water as well, i just cut a slit and spread shroom a bit. drains nice and cant even tell.

also eric correct on what he said, very meaty shroom, is a good cooker and a better eater!!!
here are finished, that mozzerella goes great with the ports. the bacon woulda been good also but were still good eats without.

I luv stuffed shrooms. Try some left over brisket shavings, dice them stems, maybe a touch of cream cheese, and just about anything else. Steak shavings will work well with them also. Haven't tried pork butt yet. A local eatery here serves them up as Cow Pies with prime rib shavings there okay but there better if ya make them yourself. I also use sausage and cream cheese mixture. There almost endless like fatties. Might be time for a Porta throw down. lol
