    Fatty fillings - would you, wouldn't you, have you ?

    I've done a French Toast and scrambled egg fattie and a meatloaf fattie stuffed with cheese, peppers, mushrooms, corn and onions.

    Rib Reviver and yet another Cardinal sin.

    Boiling meat just seems so wrong when there's so many better ways to prepare them. Even ribs just slathered in sauce and wrapped in foil in a 300° oven would be easier IMO. I even cringe when I have to boil vegetables, and I'd never reheat ribs in a microwave unless I was at the office or...

    Grandpas Brine Recipie for Smoked Fish

    Thanks for sharing that recipe, I'm making a copy. I like the salt to water ratio, to many brines seem to make Salmon way to salty.

    Sounds great!! Love to see some pictures. What makes them "Memphis Style"? Is it the rub or the way they're smoked?

    Red-eyed Weekend

    We're talking about a $4 to $5 bottle of wine that I use for cooking, plus it gives off a nice aroma.

    What was your biggest BOMB?

    I've had some bad blunders in the passed but this one wasn't all my fault but was very funny. A 10 years ago I was hosting my first Thanksgiving at my new house, I had just bought my first Weber Kettle and was going to cook a turkey on it. I had done one a few weeks before as a test run and it...

    Is It A Pork Loin or Fattie? w/Qview

    Thanks for the points Krusher!! I wish I could've gotten my temps up a little higher to make the bacon a little more crispy, but other than that, it came out great.

    Is It A Pork Loin or Fattie? w/Qview

    Thanks for the comments, and yes I get a lot of questions, laughs and eye rolling as the flash goes off in the kitchen and at the table. My GF and a few friends are now use to it, but some think I'm a little off my game. Everyone had just sat down at the table and we started eating when I...

    Red-eyed Weekend

    You said you were able to get the temps up to 550° to 600° to season it, what did you do differently when you went to smoke your brisket? I'd also get a differnt thermometer and compare the temps, the therms that come with that unit are known not to be accurate. As far as the water pan goes...

    Is It A Pork Loin or Fattie? w/Qview

    Thanks everyone for the comments!! Richtee, after I rolled the loin up I realised I could've stuffed it with something.... like stuffing . I was a little rushed Sunday morning because we were suppose to go to a friends house to watch the Bucs and Rays games. His kid was sick and had to...

    Is It A Pork Loin or Fattie? w/Qview

    So what do you think it is? If you guessed a Pork Loin, you're right!! I bought a 2 lb split pork loin Sunday and marinaded it in a Chipotle mixture. I wanted to cook them as one piece, I thought about using toothpicks or butchers twine, but thought, why not bacon? Using Capt Dan's said...

    Tri Tip Part Duex with Qview

    Thanks for the Points and comments!! It's funny when you mention if I'm from Texas; everytime I mention the cut Tri Tip, I either get a weird look, or I'm asked if I'm from California or Texas. The Tri Tip cut in these parts are pretty much unknown, the meat cutters here, either make...

    Tri Tip Part Duex with Qview

    I'm really liking these Tri Tips, after smoking one last week, I knew that I needed a good piece of meat to feed the guys coming over for the Bucs game. I found a good butcher thanks to Vlap, (Oneco's Meats) that hand picks and tirms them for you. I got a 2.6 pounder, and it's like butter. My...
