Been away a while.

Hello everyone. I haven't posted anything for a while and even though I still enjoy cooking on the smokers I haven't taken many pics. I did smoke a couple prime rib roasts for family Christmas dinner for 16. This one was 10 lbs and the one not pictured was 4 pounds. I cooked the smaller one to 140 for the few in the family that like it more done. The larger one was 130 on one end 135 on the firebox end to give them a good choice of the doneness they like. Cooked on the Pecos with hickory and cherry. I did a kosher salt black pepper rub with a little garlic and onion mixed in. Turned out nice and everyone was happy. :)

Nice work. Looks delicious.

While these were cooking I did some bologna burnt ends and Photon Torpedoes (hand rolled meatballs with Habanero and Jalapeno peppers) on the Weber kettle. It was a busy morning.

I slab my roast into cuts and cook to my wife's liking for no moo.

I did a couple trays of sausage burnt ends for New Year's Eve party. They were left over pieces after making pig shots. Both the pig shots and burnt ends got claimed by others.

1.5 lbs ground chuck. Bread crumbs. 3 nice sized Habaneros, cored and seeded, finely chopped. 2 large Jalapenos sliced and coarse chop. Cajun spices, minced onion and chili powder. Mix all ingredients well in a large mixing bowl. Roll into meatballs approximately the size of a ping pong ball or golf ball if you like them to be bigger. Cook 1 hour at 225 - 250 on the smoker. I add a habanero bbq glaze after they develop a nice crust at about the 45 minute mark. Nothing like a meatball with a smoke ring. ;) I grow hot peppers as a hobby and I've made these with heat level all the way to Carolina Reaper. The Habanero is a great starting point though and I normally use those.

I get the Star Trek reference and they sound tasty going down and potentially painful on the through put
