    Beautiful Half Chickens

    Skin turned out good. I probably could have cooked them at 300 and had them come out better though.

    Thank you all very much for the kind comments! I had to take advantage of the nice day, as Iowa rarely sees 70* weather in February. Now its back to rain and possible snow. But I do have a 14lb Prime Packer Brisket in the deep freeze that I need to get thawed here shortly!

    Beautiful Half Chickens

    Been awhile since I've posted, but these are just to pretty not to share. These half chickens were rubbed with Deez Nuts Pecan rub from Meatchurch. I had 1 half chicken for supper and we pulled the rest to make sandwhiches and the gf wanted to make chicken noodle soup as well. 10$ for 2 whole...

    Two Butts for Family get together

    I would have liked to document the process better but I was super crunched for time with this cook. I will say that I did trim the fat cap down to the meat for this cook.

    43 Day Dry Aged Ribeye

    Sadly we forgot to write down the before aging weight.  My grandpa just did this with a whole sirloin too. Originally it was just over 5lbs, after dry aging it was 4.14lbs. After trimming it weighed in at 3.3lbs of good edible meat.

    43 Day Dry Aged Ribeye

    Hey fellow Iowan!  First thing you notice about the dry age meat is the sort of nutty aroma that comes from the meat after the aging process. This intensifies the beef flavor IMO, Dry aging also helps with making the meat more tender. This was one of if not the most tender steak I've ever had...
