    BBQ Hash and Rice...(Long read and lots of pics)

    I appreciate that! The Dixie Pig in Rock Hill is on the list, but theirs is more like just really overcooked pulled pork - I ate there once and don't care for it at all, I'd forgotten about it to be honest even though I drive by it 5 times a week, it's that forgettable. I'm going to scope out...

    BBQ Hash and Rice...(Long read and lots of pics)

    About the last 10 minutes of this is my favorite.

    BBQ Hash and Rice...(Long read and lots of pics)

    It's unique to this area and not many places serve it anymore. When I moved to SC in the mid 90's every little Q joint had it on the menu. I don't think there is a single place in the county I live in (100k people or more) that still serves it. It's the pepper that makes it. I would...

    BBQ Hash and Rice...(Long read and lots of pics)

    I'll be by for a taste in 5 minutes! Have you ever had hash from Midway outside of Union SC - I judge all hash by theirs. Back 15-20 years ago I had an ex brother in law lived in Union. Whenever we'd go camping or fishing or gold prospecting if we could we'd stop and get a at least a quart...

    Extremely Poor Man's Burnt Ends

    Aldi bellies make premium burnt ends ;) I tend to hurt myself when I do them. I've got the self control of a damn addict when it comes to burnt ends.

    Extremely Poor Man's Burnt Ends

    Round is going to be a bit trickier than chuck. Will still be tasty, but don't be surprised if they are a bit dry. I don't use round unless I'm cooking it medium rare or grinding it (and then I grind it with something fattier. Or making jerky, though I haven't done jerky in a long time...

    What are you watching ?

    On my umpteenth rewatch of The Sopranos Mixing in The Penguin when I get tired of the gabagool.

    Grinding plate question

    Safe? Sure. I seasoned meat pre grind for a bit (especially just doing breakfast bulk) but nowadays I just dump it all in post grind. I don't know if my reasoning has any merit, but my reasoning is that I want to keep salt away from my plates and knives. Some people have a matched...

    Homemade Egg Fried Rice

    Looks good. I made a small batch of beef fried rice last night. I hardly ever have a craving for it, but I have been wanting it for a few days now.

    Carving prime rib, etc.

    Prepared and served PR weekly (on Fridays) in a restaurant ~2 years End cuts were saved for requests. Sliced just like I would if I were breaking down a whole loin into steaks. We started out with boneless loins, just sliced straight cuts, often cutting them in half and then using a slicer...

    Ollie's deal #5 Weston grinder

    I'm not 100% sure if this is a good deal, but Ollie's finds generally are. Local store has about a dozen #5 grinders for 49.99 #5 will do the job. I had a cheap #5 for quite some time back 20 or so years ago. It's more than capable of smaller runs, and an excellent way to get away from store...

    Reverse Sear Tomahawk with Pommes Pave' ( also Lemon Fudge for after )

    I'd eat it and love every bite. If you are going to take a steak to medium well or well, a ribeye can handle it like no other cut can, as long as it's got a metric sh#t ton of fat. Not my preference, but that well done fat is delicious.

    Childhood Favorite Resurrected - Pimento Cheese

    For me, it's one of those things I absolutely love or absolutely hate. I never could get homemade just right. My favorite one has American cheese, my second favorite one has cheddar. I've got a jar of pimento in the pantry that's probably 3 years out of date lol. Leftover from when I was...

    Fassett's Breakfast Sausage Seasoning

    Love Pops simple recipe. I HIGHLY suggest reducing the salt by 25% and using as much red pepper flakes as you desire. Pops ratio is 8-2-1, 6-2-1 is perfect for me. It's still a bit salty, but in a good way. Kind of like the bacon I make. 1.65% is just enough salt for it to be slightly...

    BBQ toys

    @nomoreusmc FYI on the Mavericks, put them under cover (I used a ziploc bag) when you use them. They are susceptible to water damage. I killed one when a little popup storm hit and bought another. Heavy dewfall killed that one. Good units, just keep them dry.

    Christmas rib roast: smoke or no smoke?

    God forbid we were able to turn out things like beef wellington and crown roasts and prime rib roasts before remotes or insta reads. Animals and barbarians we were. Everything we cooked we turned into cinders. Guess I'm an idiot ;) I didn't own an instant read or a remote until 2015 or 2016...

    brisket reheat

    Stick it in a full size aluminum pan and cover it with saran wrap. Then cover it with foil. At destination, park it in an oven at 170ish for about 45 mins to an hour. Me personally, I break the rules by just parking big hunks or containers of hot stuff out in the garage fridge. The correct...

    Christmas rib roast: smoke or no smoke?

    Good either way, I prefer traditional over smoked, but I ain't turning my nose up at either one. I tend to agree with this. If I'm smoking beef, I generally only run salt and pepper. Call me crazy but I don't even care for the O&G in SPOG (for beef)

    Help me get some knives

    Many of us bought a set (or 6) of the Brewin knives on Amazon. I particularly like the heavy chef's knife in the 3 piece set. Right now they can be had for $25. There is a 5 piece set that folks here also rave about. Mercer boning knives are outstanding. The Brewin set is often even...

    “Drones”

    Jake, make sure the cover is shiny side out. If you really want to add a foolproof layer of protection, double layer it and make the inner layer shiny side in. That way nothing gets in, or out!
