Hey all, been a while since I have posted here but now that the weather is warming up I will be posting like crazy in the coming weeks. I am just getting over pneumonia but it will NOT stop me from firing up the smoker this saturday
I made a trip to Sams Club with the Mrs and made out like a bandit! I got these two butts (bone in), a 7.5 lb brisket and 3 racks of baby backs to get me back in stride!
Today I decided to make some BBQ Sauce. Since my rub has a little heat to it, I wanted to make something light and subtle that would balance the flavors. So I started with a mixed fruit Gastrique.
Here is the mixture getting all sexy-like
Getting ready to mash the fruit through the strainer
Final product, ready to be jarred. This is a tomato based sauce I make adding white vinegar, molasses and a variety of spices.
I plan on starting the smoke saturday around 9 am, letting it go nice and slow and of course having a few adult beverages while tending to the smoker
Thanks for stopping by to see what I have so far, I will be taking TONS of pictures saturday throughout the smoke!!
