    Bone in ribeye on mesquite charcoal

    My second outdoor cook after a 2 month hiatus during construction. Ribeye over mesquite charcoal, baked potatoes on the grill, corn on the cob and my wife's famous mushrooms swimming in butter! That hit the spot and rubbed it out!

    Pork chops on a charcoal fire

    Finally back to grilling and soon smoking. I haven't posted for two months while we were doing a patio extension, pavers, misting system, electrical and plumbing. All during the hottest part of an AZ summer. The final part will be the wood fired oven that I will be building from scratch. Here's...

    Home Grown Tomatoes

    That's the best part! The dish in Italian is called "Caprese," (ka-pray-zay)

    Help me with a (salt, pepper, garlic, and onion) rub

    2 parts coarse pepper, 1 part salt, 1/2 part each of garlic and onion. Use granulated, not powder. powder tends to clump.

    Logistics of Feeding 100 people

    Look into a reasonably priced holding oven. I see the one from Vevor has gotten popular. Another inexpensive way to go is a turkey roasters ( or find some to borrow). Hold at 150°. There are many on YouTube who have held brisket, pulled pork etc for up to 20 hours. Cook the day before, and...

    Is Fig a good Wood to Use for Smoking?

    I use my fig trimmings in the smoker after it is seasoned. It dries out fast, especially here in AZ. I've never smoked with it exclusively, but I have used it with some hard woods like mesquite or pecan.

    I figured I should give a follow up since I posted it in the open forum (prostate biopsy)

    Annual PSA checks are key. If insurance won't cover it, pay it out of pocket, it's only $40. If you do get a big bump in the PSA number, get a re-check of the PSA. I had that happen once about 18 years ago, and the second one came back normal, and every one since.

    Black Angus buys

    Made some Black Angus meat purchases a couple of days ago from a local butcher shop. We ground a whole brisket and a chuck roast for almost 14 lbs. of hamburger and grilled a tri-tip over mesquite charcoal for dinner yesterday. The tri-tip was melt in the mouth awesome!

    Mother's Day Breakfast

    Mother's Day breakfast for the gang. My part was the meat and hash browns on the Blackstone. Bacon comes out better on a flat top for some reason especially when it is homemade. Not shown is the eggs, toast, fresh fruit, coffee cake and lemon pound cake. A good time was had by all.
