    pork belly question(s)

    Hey Y'all for at least the last 5 years or so I have been buying skin-on pork belly slabs. typically about a foot square. been paying about $3.99/lb. I then process in bags with Prague #1 by the book, to cure for bacon. smoke,and refrigerate. Before I hit the slicer for bacon, I "square up"...

    Pastrami newbie.. Cold or hot smoke.

    I'm too old and impatient to try and cure my own but have had spectacular results (IMHO) with the packaged corn beef brisket from the store. I give it an overnight bath. make up a special pastrami rub, then on the kettle indirect with temps around 260. I take it to 200 IT, but some on the...

    Water Filters with Chip

    FWIW. the GE filters go by date, not volume. (XWFEmodel) I've just given in to the fact that its going to be $50 each to replace. My GE was completely replaced with new by GE under warranty (long story. our city water is very drinkable, but the ice maker slows way down when the filter gets...

    I love the TD's but my photo skills suck. even broke out the DSLR for the last one, then slightly overcooked a fat tri-tip.

    Tri-Tip - My favorite way to make it.

    I wish we had regular access to "real" tri-tip. Or "Latin meat market sells what they call tri-tip but I think its just cut from that area of the cow because it's more rectangular Next time they have their "Tri-tip sirloin", I'll definitely want to try this.

    "sinko-de mayo" folded quesadillas

    Hey y'all. On Saturday I made an attempt to "re-do some tri-tip after my over cooked madness submission. They were still more medium than my liking but tender and a little smoky. We discovered 3lbs was too much beef for one sitting. I saw this little trick watching "The Kitchen" with Cinco de...

    Bottom round

    one of the few things i still use the pellet pooper for. typically when its on sale, I'll give it a good spg coating and set pooper on about 230 or so. Cook it to around 125, then remove and rest then use the deli slicer for imitation deli roast beef. A little horsey suace and some bree-osh buns.
