    Thanks for the strip idea, @Steve H

    After seeing Steve's NY strip thread, I pulled a few 1 1/2'' prime Costco strips out of the freezer. I used the SV for the 4 hrs at 130* with S.P, and smashed four med size coves of Garlic & grated in two tsps of micro plained up almost 2 TBLS of dried black truffle, and two big globs of Kerry...

    Finally put my sourdough start to use again.

    Made up a few pies last weekend. They turned out great. As much as I like the Neapolitan style pies, my heartfelt pies are grandma style, that's what my Noni made for us at home. The darkness on the grandma pie was done the way my wife likes it. To me, it was over done on toppings, but the...

    I love New Yorks off the UDS.

    I found a couple of prime N. Y's in the freezer, so off to the drum they went . This time I just tossed a few oak logs into the drum and sparked them up until they burnt down to coals. I threw the two steaks on the grate and choked down the fire until it was a slow smolder. I left them in the...

    What to do with leftover rib roast. CHEESE STEAKS!!!!

    I bought a 14 lb cryovac'd rib roast for $5.00 per pound between Christmas and New Year. I let it wet age for a 8 days because I was lazy. Last night we ate S. V. Rib roast, smashed baby potatoes, and broccoli. Sorry no pictures. I S. V. It for 13 hours at 135* and it wasn't as tender as I hoped...

    For the love of, Pyrex!!!

    "LONG" I grew up watching my Sicilian Noni, Mother and Auntie 's cooking with Pyrex for as long as I can remember. When I moved out of my parents house my Mom set me up with a few of her old stock pots and pans, along with a few Pyrex casserole and baking dishes. I've always loved my old...

    I had planned on this for a few weeks, but missed the deadline. This is a pork loin, that was cut and pounded with a meat hammer, and rubbed down with pesto. Inside is leftover Thanksgiving dressing, spinach, cranberry, onion, garlic, and Granny Smith apple, prosciutto and smoked mozzarella...

    I know several of you have messed up spines as well.

    How are you feeling with the change of weather? I know that I'm not the only human barometer. I love this time of year because of duck and goose hunting and crabbing, but damn does the change in the weather kick my ass. I've been getting our 5th wheel trailer ready for our upcoming week of...

    Competition pork ribs.

    Flintstones, size tri tip roast.

    I found a 7 lb Magnum, prime T. T. at Kinder's butcher shop a few days ago. I seasoned it up with a 50/50 blend of McCormick's Santa Maria rub and my homemade blackening seasoning. I cold smoked it for 2 hours using Oak chips then tossed it into the kettle over some real Oakwood coals, turning...

    Looking for the member that did the water jet cutting on his pizza peel.

    He offered to perforate an aluminum pizza peel for me a few months ago after I complimented him on the pizza peel that he water jetted at work. I have a little project I'm looking for a little help on, it's cutting out a few guitar picks out of 1mm to 1.5mm brass. If any of you know who this...

    I gave in and took my wife to see Top Gun last Wed night at a prescreening that a friend hooked me up with.

    Tom Cruise makes my skin crawl to say the least, and the story line was as ridiculous as expected. But the cinematography saved the day. In my opinion, this movie is perfect for viewing in an IMAX, big screen movie house. I wouldn't of lasted 15 minutes if I was streaming it to my home TV, even...
