I've had a busy summer and I'm trying to catch up. We did a group dinner for the July 4th weekend. The day before, I made 5 pounds of bacon candy for the gang.
I also spatched and smoked a couple chickens for pulled chicken sammies. I put the bacon candy on the shelves above the chicken so all that bacon, maple, brown sugar goodness basted the birds as they cooked.
The next day I made a few venison Moink balls, and venison burnt ends. The pizza peel is a handy tool to load/unload the goodies.
Burnt ends.
I pulled the chicken and put in into a crock pot with some chicken stock. It was great.
I also sauteed a cabbage, onion, tomato dish for one of the sides.
There were plenty of side dishes everyone brought along with 60 dozen clams. It was a feast for sure.
Last weekend, I did my first dino ribs. I scored two 4-1/2 pound packs of very meaty ribs for $2.99/pound.
Just salt, pepper, garlic. They were shake off the bone tender.
