I feel like I may be on the other side of this discussion as I have had to be the one to make the cost cutting decisions. We are doing rolling 1 week furloughs where we will cover medical and the associate can apply for unemployment. We are essential and building items for ventilators. If we...
Work conference call left them on longer than they may have needed. Will watch a little closer next time but can't imagine they are going to get much better!
I'm the main chef of the family, so if I wanted a special meal on my birthday it was up to me, myself, and I. Out shopping yesterday and found a 10 lb bag of non-frozen wings separated for $1/lb and knew exactly what I wanted. Hit them with a small amount of chipotle dry rub and put them on...
It's starting to be apparent it was operator error. My 165 brisket was barely edible with how tough it was. I don't mind "fall apart" slices, even for dinner with cabbage or whatever sides you prefer. I will have to try a side by side the next time I fire up corned beef.
I'm not going to doubt anyone elses methods, but the one time I took a store bought corned beef to 160-170 it has been very tough. May have been a bad hunk of meet, but I still prefer to smoke to 190-195, let it rest, and then slice.
I'm in the same boat on a griddle, haven't pulled the trigger on one either. Flat top would be awesome to finish the meat and mix with the veggies and then just cover with cheese.
I gave up the booze in January for 2 reasons:
1 - Get myself moving in the right direction on the scale...
Wife doesn't like the smokey flavor (except on PP), so they will be in the oven.
I did a similar roast at 131 for 21 hours the last time for french dips and it was amazing. Will likely try the same. May also SV some wings as a side by side comparison with normal vortex. SV for 1 hour at 165...
Damn, $1.19 baby backs and 2.99 TT. My already full freezer would need a brother!
I do a similar spread with 1 block Velveeta, 1 lb burger, 1 lb sausage. Cook the meat, mix in the cheese, spread onto cocktail breads, and bake. I like the addition of salsa to this recipe, may need to give it...
Sous Vide a Top Round Saturday and slice thin for philly cheesesteak sliders.
Brined wings and drums with my new vortex on the egg
Homemade salsa
Cheese and sliced bear log
Still trying to come up with some additional finger foods/apps. Will go back through this thread for ideas.
Got me looking at the windy city smokeout. Looks to be at the United Center. Grew up in GR but moved to Chicago so this may be an opportunity to get out and spend a day. Went to a similar festival a few years back in the parking lot of soldier field... Blues, Brews, and BBQ.
I will be watching to see what others come up with. I usually keep the cauliflower as is and add it to smoked meats and other veggies to make a (low carb) meal.
I was running at about 250-275 when I put the eye of the smoker. I left in on for about 45 min - 1 hour before pulling it. The cold pieces I snacked on while slicing had a good smoke flavor but your results may vary.
Trying to do more food prep in the new year so I can eat (somewhat) healthy and not have to worry about cooking after work. Had the idea to smoke a big batch of thighs after I pulled some previously smoked ones from the deep freeze and they were amazing. Combined this with a sale on eye of...
