Memorial Day was spent working on our DIY kitchen remodel. I was smart enough to pick up a tomahawk and a Bloody Mary tri-tip the Thursday before. I liberally coated them both with Jeff's rub. The tomahawk got the Texas rub and the flavored tri-tip got the original. Into the garage fridge they...
Congratulations on being featured in Jeff's newsletter this morning! I've sort of made these in the past not putting any thought into them and it's convinced me these are better than the pork counterpart. They need to start breeding chickens to have the abundant skin of Basset Hounds.
