Sorry this may be a long one....
Wanted to try the spatchcock chicken and then figured lets fill her up. This was honestly the best meal I think I have ever made. Fed a LOT of neighbors and friends.
Fatty as a thank you for some brewery friends- leftovers from breakfast cook with added homemade bacon and hot breakfast sausage link, shredded cheddar, MC The Gospel
And maybe a piece of wrapper from my new scraper... didn't see that til this pic, LOL
Saving to sous vide and serve to them.
Chicken- 1st try at spatchcock- just cut out backbone, broke my kitchen shears doing this. Not sure how well I did, but you cannot taste that.
Injected with garlic and melted butter, rubbed with cajun and paprika
Chicken Part 2- Bnls thighs coated with avacado oil and Penzeys Adobo (1 tsp per pound), needs more for future reference
Meatloaf- Had some venison out to mix in for sausage but my grinder broke. My inner dialogue- "Last of my venison burger, defrosted, be resourceful"
3# venison burger
2# HOT italian sausage
4 cups milk
4 cups breadcrumbs
4 cups ketchup
Some mustard
2 bags shredded cheddar
a bunch o cajun seasoning
5 eggs
totally forgot onion
Top with ketchup/brown sugar mix last 20 minutes
Prob my best meatloaf yet. Sweet, smokey, and the perfect bite from hot italian sausage
Mac n Cheese- First smoked and just a blend of recipes and tips
4 cups elbow mac
1/2 pack Velveeta
Smoked Muenster
4 cups Milk
Bag of shredded cheddar
Stick of butter
Seasoning
1 can Cheddar Soup
Didn't look too tasty going in. Stirred every so often. OMG was this tasty!
Aged Ribeyes- 30 days in the UMAI bags, kosher salt and pepper, sat out a good hour, smoking hot grill, rest tented with a little butter, best steak I have ever had, SO BEEFY!!!
Sliced up for everyone to get a taste, cooked to perfection. Definitely needed to be rare to med rare.
A few cook pics...
A few goody bags for neighbors. Overall a great experience and this is the reason I went to the pellet grill, volume. Wife made some amazing banana bread too.
During this cook, neighbor had friends over and asked if I had any smoked treats- I managed to get out from freezer and serve a tasting dish of smoked trout, smoked colby jack, smoked venison snack sticks, smoked brisket and half a rack of ribs. We have good friends that we also call neighbors here. It was a busy afternoon to say the least!
