8-day cure on the low-salt end of Pop's brine. All brown sugar, lot of black pepper and pasilla chiles in the brine. This pic was before the wrap of strawberry jam, miso gochujang, and parkay Pasta Salad was just free macaroni, grape tomatoes, and green onions I got free from a produce...

About 2" max thickness on this butt slab Red and white oak, some hickory and mesquite chunks, steady 200-225* Smoked some hot dogs separately (kept taking them off and baptizing in Blues Hog Tennessee Red), garbanzos and black beans and onions in the cast iron, I got all of 'em free in a...

skin and start marinating chicken drums in my proprietary greek viniagrette in the morning, throw some of them on the top rack of the oven shortly past 4pm, with a stainless skillet underneath to catch any drippings. broiler was on high. flipped once, pulled the skillet and the chicken and...

I'm sure it would get a lot of use

Bought a real old, very much salvageable offset cheap yesterday. Once I got done burning off the cobwebs and wasp nests, figured I shouldn't let the coals go to waste.. Pretty much just Pop's brine. About 1c salt and about 1c sugar/gallon, but I used 1c of strawberry jelly instead of any...

Came up in chat, figured I'd post this here as there's not too many videos (to my knowledge) of making it at home. I have yet to try making it. Thinking white American though.. Maybe brick, monteray jack, white cheddar, a little liquid smoke..

Herbs de provence and a new green curry powder that tastes mostly of lemongrass were the differences this time

(STL trimmed these a little too tight, i know...) (Left the fat cap on heavy so i could give it more time, knowing how pretty it'd be once i peeled it off..) (My GOOD cleaver couldn't even cut through it clean..) Tiger Sauce (obv) Sriracha Kraft Catalina Thai sweet chile sauce Honey...

Simple concept, the more you stress the harder she works. Water can legitimately become a cost issue (those tomatillos required about 2-3gal water, 4x daily). Using whatever regular soil you do is fine, but you can try adding in some sand or other well-draining anhydrous medium to your soil (a...

Step 1: Grow 2 different chiles Step 2: Go to the store sometime before flowering and buy your first box of Q-tips ever Step 3: Rub one of the plant's UNOPENED flowers/pistils (inside) with a Q-tip (the more open the flower is, the higher chance it's already gotten knocked up) Step 4: Rub a...

Many more details to come throughout the day tomorrow-

3 days seems about the sweet spot for tightening everthing up in attempt of better pulling away from the bone, before totally falling apart (3:2:1). rolled them up in their ziplock backwords/upside down this time which may have made a difference but will have to do a control relish for the...

Birds been on a little over an hour now at ~250*F.. Will probably brush some of my finishing sauce and sear that into it. Helps having one foot long and one foot wide spatula, lol. Speaking of sauces, running low on my master hot sauce so I started a jar in between stuff. Made a $2 lasagna for...

Really still figuring out cured ribs.. First pic is after the damn unfoiling!! FTC'd for a half hour even though I knew they weren't done after 3:2:1, didnt bother unwrapping so threw back in the oven at 225 still wrapped in parchment then foil. After about 30-45 to hopefully bring them back to...

Only my third smoke on this new chargriller smokin champ, which was apparently assembled by a bunch of jabronis. must be karma for losing so many tools during a move this summer pretty much pops brine for the most part, havent been into curing too long. smuckers grape jelly instead of honey...
