    Goat Leg Tacos

    When I found a whole goat leg at a local farm to market, I couldn't resist. I pretty much treated it like a pork butt with different seasonings. Here goes: 1. I scored the top and seasoned it with a layer of SPG, then came back and hit it with a french herb mixture I picked up from some ladies...

    Tri Tip 2 Ways

    I cooked two tri tips side by side with different finishes. The first was the usual med-rare with a reverse sear. The other was schmoked like a brisket. Both just salt and pepper. Both smoked with oak lump charcoal with some pecan wood chunks on my custom vertical pit. Here are the results...

    Beef Ribs (Dino Ribs) - Easiest Smoke There Is

    I just wish the plate rib was as easy to find as it is to smoke. I seasoned these with a 2:1 ratio of black pepper and kosher salt. I leave the membrane on the bottom to help the meat stay on the bone when everything is done. These get so tender that if you pull it off, I find that the meat...

    Simple Rib Sammich

    This is why I never care if the McRib stays or leaves. The real trick is making sure your ribs are taken high enough to get a clean rib pull, which is always higher than I schmoke them to just eat at the table. Also, I'm usually a dry ribs guy, but for these I sauce after the wrap to get a good...

    Inaugural Smoke on the Custom Smoker

    With the help of this forum, I've been playing with this new custom smoker that my dad got me (new to me, anyway). I still don't feel comfortable with it, but I'm throwing down some meat on it anyway. Just 20 minutes ago I dropped 2 briskets and and pork butt. Stay tuned for results. And...

    Help Me Learn to Use This Custom Smoker

    I posted a while back about some smokers my dad surprised me with. I finally made it to Texas to pick them up and put my eyes and hands on them. I'm asking for help with learning how to smoke with this one. It's made out of 20" well casing that is thick and hefty. Here's the dimensions: 20"...

    Brisket - Nothing Fancy

    I have a really hard time trying to do anything fancy with a brisket. The meat is just so darn good with minimal intervention. Here's my basic brisket method: This time I started with a 15lbs certified angus beef brisket. Usually I shoot for smaller briskets because all I have right now is a...

    Don't Want No Stinking Peanuts

    I was on a flight to Nashville, and I hate paying airport prices for food. So what's a man to do? Slice some onion thin, pack the tortillas, and pull out the pulled pork. People on the plane were looking at me like, "Tha heck is this redneck doing?!?" Sure beats peanuts and paying airport...

    Tri-Tip Reverse Seared

    Started with an almost 3 lbs trimmed Tri-Tip from Albertson's. After a nice rinse and pat dry, I seasoned it with some of Wild Bill's rub. Wild Bill isn't a commercial rub, he's just the guy that everyone wishes to have as a friend. He's an older retired man who slays elk and slams fish by...

    Keep Elk Roast Moist?

    I'm wanting to smoke an elk roast I have for Potluck at church this Sunday. I'm concerned that my lack of attention to it because I'm preaching will keep me from producing what I want. I've never smoked an elk roast, but I'm guessing it'll be pretty easy to dry out. What IT would y'all suggest...

    8 Year Old Smokes Again - Chicken Legs

    My 8 year old done it again. She found some chicken legs for 99¢ and I couldn't say no to that face. She came home and coated them with some salt, pepper, chipotle powder, and a few sprinkles of cayenne because "dad likes spicy stuff". Again, I started the smoke rolling and she took over the...

    Smoked Everything Club Sandwich

    It's hard to know where to put this post, but I settled on here because the initial inspiration to make this sammich was needing to use some of my Meal Prep Turkey that's been in the freezer. It just so happened that I also had some smoked pastrami in the freezer and some pulled pork in the...

    Smoked Chuck Nachos

    Nothing fancy here, just good ol' nachos using beef from my Meal-Prep Chuck haul. The kids wanted to play Monopoly and I needed a meal we could eat while playing. So I did a basic nacho: Heated the smoked chuck in a simmering pot of water. While that was happening, I sliced up some toppings...

    Pork Chops by 8 Year Old Prodigy

    Some of y'all have probably read on here that I've got my daughter trained on checking meat prices every time we walk into the grocery store. She loves to cook and is the same one who took second at a chili cook-off this past New Year's Eve. A couple of days back she came up to me with a...

    Smoked Turkey Taters

    This is a follow up to my Meal Prep Turkey thread that I posted a while back. I'm trying to post the different ways I used the meat I put up to give others ideas on how they can use leftovers. Who doesn't love taters? and who doesn't love smoked turkey? Well then, it stands to reason that...
