    Boston butt freezer find

    rooting through the freezer found a $.99/lb Boston butt and we were fresh out of vacuum sealed shreds. Time to fire up the WSM. s typical of these sale butts there was a hefty chunk of fat, which I trimmed down to about 1/4". Scored the fat side to absorbs much rub as possible. Made my own rub...

    ThermoPro rebranding?

    not an earth shaking development, but recently as doing research after an electric salt/pepper grinder set popped up on Thermopro website. I'm a big 'ol worry wart and absolutely love my relic "Corkie" salt and pepper grinders that are now 6 years old. I also decided to check the price on...

    Top blade Flat Iron Chicken steak.

    Post name is kind of a joke. I comment frequently about our local "Latin" supermarket / meat store. I was wandering through the other day. looking for some griddle steaks. Not real thick like i would buy bone in ribeye. I'm not sure who makes the labels, but thought it was comical. I noted the...

    OTT chili on the WSM

    Well, we're having our week of winter this week and Mama's been hinting chili. She was talking of digging up he uncle's old chili recipe, but I can't have that. Decided to give it a go on the WSM. This is not a recipe, but more of a guide or inspiration. I don't do "recipes", but typically...

    time for some Dino ribs.

    Every now and then my head(and stomach) says "it's time to make some Dino ribs. Our local "Latin" market. typically has these displayed in the "expensive" section of the meat area. Selection is usually limited o a couple of pieces with a take it or leave it attitude. Communication is limited to...

    New Years viddles

    it's already the 7th and just now getting to this. Work is already whooping my backside, plus trying to take a little time to mess with my car toy. Mama told me we had to have pork, and the obligatory black eyed peas. Luckily Publix had Hatfield pork tenderloins on BOGO. I've become a big fan of...

    My @Inkbird IBBQ-4T is ailing, plus Amazon sale for replacement

    I noticed the battery (built in) on My @Inkbirdbbq IBBQ-4T 4 probe thermometer started acting wonky at the South Florida gathering where the battery life after full charge seemed to be draining much faster than I'm used to. Still works fine when connected to your average pocket sized battery...

    tri -tip two ways. long with a couple pics.

    So my "Latin" Market had and ad with USDA tri-tips for $5.99/lb. I was a bit speculative but had to look. These things were huge, as I usually get the smaller 2-3 lb jobs. Took a chance and got the smallest one which weighed in a little over 6lbs. it was a repackaged piece in shrink wrap, so i...

    Chicken balls

    saw this on a F/B kettle forum and decided to try it. The recipe was chicken breasts cubed and wrapped in bacon. Worked of but next time I'll use thighs. Slippery little suckers were a task to wrap in bacon. it would help if Publix thin bacon wasn't paper thin. Next time, if i do it again I'll...

    In Atlanta... is Rodney Scott's worth a visit?

    I got conned into attending a tech event near Georgia Tech . Yelp says there's a Rodney Scotts nearby. I'm embarrassed I'm not familiar. it's close enough to Uber. Worth a shot?

    Sometimes you just have to have brisket burnt ends

    without rehashing the cost of beef these days, I got a little brain message telling me it was time for burnt ends. Luckily my local Latin meat market regularly offers precut point and flat cuts of brisket. Prohibitively expensive at $8.99/lb, but my mind was set and it looked like a well marbled...

    Electronic rodent control question.

    Way off topic. My patio/ cooking area is covered but not enclosed. I got a silicone cover for my griddle. It's "sealed and keeps anything off the cooking surface. I can see the patio from my "office" chair. i saw a small rodent scurry across my cover last night. traps and/or bait would not be...

    Sunday pork tenderloin.

    With the price of beef lately, we've been doing a lot more pork. while I don't particularly care for "marinated in the package", it does make for a quick Sunday smoke. Walmart had these pre-marinated garlic and pepper jobs for a decent price. $10 all in. Mama found this "unique "sauce in the BBQ...

    Virginia Brunswick stew with pics

    I think I piqued some interest of those previously unfamiliar with Virginia Brunswick stew. I was raised (pre-teen years) in tobacco country Virginia. Spent most of my summers on a small tobacco farm in Central Virginia. This afforded me some great culinary experiences like country ham Brunswick...

    $.99/lb chicken for Brunswick stew

    Mama is always bugging me to smoke her a chicken so she can make Virginia Brunswick stew. I would be easier to go to Sam's and get a rotisserie job. But what fun would that be. $5 and change all in. Let's kettle.

    Finally a straight rack of ribs

    I get tickled silly when I buy a rack of ribs that is not all crooked and "messed up". I don't know about y'all but I watch a mess of BBQ competition shows and see all these turn-in boxes with beautiful uniform, straight ribs in them. I quit buying Smithfield a long time ago, because the yield...

    between excruciating work schedule and my new car project, I've been preoccupied from outdoor cooking. Luckily I have a great freezer manager.

    Just plain 'ol sirloin steak.

    I've only been to Outback maybe 4 times. Usually on a gift card my wife gets from school/students. Their most affordable steaks called a "top sirloin". Always pretty good for what it is. I had a hankerin' for some real beef steak. Dialed up Jess Pryle's web site and watched her video on Top...
