Love a good Chimi myself, highly underrated if you ask me. I used to go by a couple different recipes then figured out you can really tweak things if you want.
Couple months ago got my meat back from my TX Aoudad hunt in Feb. Everyone I talked to really made it seem like the meat is next to nasty, near inedible. With wife and kids gone again I decided to test it out. I grabbed a 8" chunk of backstrap out of the freezer and a whitetail tenderloin from...
I like experimenting but sometimes it is tough to beat good ole SPG type rub. Could have done my own mix with fresh cracked pepper and kosher salt but it was just too easy to grab one bottle. A little bit of a dipping sauce on the side might make an appearance next time just to mix up flavors.
After seeing @philpom with his Ahi Tuna I just couldn't get it off my mind (think Willy Nelson singing "Always On My Mind" but Tuna On My Mind). Up in Fargo ND we don't have a ton of options but a local grocery store has Tuna Steaks and usually you can find some good ones so I stopped after work...
I use mine quite often and even the wife uses it here and there. Quick and simple from big cuts like butts to salmon fillets. The rotating display is kind of nice too, which at first I didn't think was a big deal as I just needed something affordable and reliable but now that I have it I notice...
Love my Thermo Pop. Not sure if I got a Gen1 or Gen2, I'm guessing a Gen1 beings I bought it 1-2yrs ago. What did they change between the two? Just by reading the front of the box mine has the same specs.
My first offset that I ever ran and only one I own is a Oklahoma Joe that is half offset and half propane. The fire box and the cook chamber for the smoker/charcoal grill are the same size, the one thing I did play with is taking various widths of plate steel to make baffles basically and a...
Wife and kids were gone for the weekend at one of her relative's graduations, beings I have spent more than enough time in Iowa for work I was given a pass besides someone had to look after the dogs. Weather could have been been better but it was just good enough to do some simple cooking on...
I've done screaming hot grill or cast iron, usually simple SPGO but have tried a few different seasonings. I don't make them very often so results are always good but if I don't watch it I can be a little inconsistent. The last one I did I think I used Lane's Q-Nami for seasoning, was not icky :)
Saw some good looking yellowfin steaks at a grocery store I like up here, have had good luck in the past. Almost grabbed a couple last night but passed for the time being, after seeing this I might have to grab a couple.
Thanks for sharing
Makes perfect sense, fat is an insulator hence why animals put on fat going into winter. Not sure why we don't naturally think of it for cooking, at least I never have anyways
Interesting. I've mostly been doing it on my deer because I have found where the family has the preference, I really have to screw things up for them to not eat, the girls (10yr and 13yr) always help clean the venison or any steak up usually.
Nice write up. I have been playing with carry over cooking on some of the venison steak cooks I have been doing and its amazing how much it raises in 5min. I don't steak out my venison anymore, leave in a bigger chunk (basically a roast) like a 6in section of backstrap, season, sear in case iron...
Done a few chucks, most of mine end up as Mississippi Po Boy's along the line of Sir Malcom Reed. Have done a couple as poor man's burnt ends decent and everyone else loved them, I thought they were ok. Chuck is far from a cheap cut (in ND at least) and it averages out to about the same price...
Scissors and Sharpies tend to go missing for me (Wife & Two Daughters 10&13yr). Then you couple in that sometimes I rob from my hiding spots, use them somewhere else and forget where I set them.
