I didn’t know this either until I saw it but n the news this morning. Man why didn’t someone give us a heads up earlier this week so we could plan. Can’t wait to see your meatloaf.

Nice score for you!
I gotta go check out the freezer. Thankfully a steer just moved from my pasture to my freezer so there is lots of beef options

Wife got some ribs Friday, think they are babybacks.... so I guess we are doing babybacks!

 

[smokin peachey]

I pulled some beef short ribs out of the freezer and raced to the store while my wife started inviting some friends
This will be the meat options . Hopefully there is something for everyone.

@pc farmer , @Central PA Cowboy , @HalfSmoked , @ anyone else that wants to join us this is your invite so no one can say they weren’t invited.

4 "racks" of beef short ribs from Costco and 2 chickens that have been brining overnight in my pale ale brine. Time to start up the smoker.

 

[smokin peachey]

Just added TriTip, chicken, abts and bacon wrapped scallops.

I saw it on the news today too.

I already had plans to do my second smoke today anyway so I'm celebrating with a beer.

Cut up two whole chickens, a first for me. 99 cents a pound vs $1.99 for the pre cut chicken.

Anyway, I brined it for 4 hours, then tossed it in olive oil and chicken rub.

Just threw some sausages on the rack above the chicken.

In about 20 minutes I'll be throwing some mushrooms stuffed with cream cheese, asiago and cheddar, bacon and crab.

The whole thing should be done right around 6 PM.

As I mentioned above, this is my second smoke. I am still having issues controlling temp, I am alway 40 or 50 degrees over my target. My first time, I hit 565 degrees before I got the fire under control and could put the meat on!

This time I haven't cracked 340. Currently 280.

I'm learning but, it's a learning curve...

" and 2 chickens that have been brining overnight in my pale ale brine. "

pale ale brine???

that sounds interesting. do tell more!

 

[Steve H]

I was wondering about what you were going to do with all the meat from the cow you had cut up. All I'm seeing is store bought.

 

[Rafter H BBQ]

Not even close to the cook your doing Peachy, but tossed on a couple racks of pork BB’s!

 

[flatbroke]

Dang are those CPB ribs from the freezer? They look like they were fed out nice. Too bad only 2 Tri tip come from a beef. Your guest are lucky to dine on CPB aka Certified Peachey Beef.

 

[Bubarooni]

I guess I did it right.

As my guests exited they said 'chef', 'genius' and 'polymath'.

The dude who said 'polymath' is now on my 'Christmas list'.

Sorry but my local butcher doesn’t cut out the tritip and he can’t do pork ribs or boneless chicken thighs from a steer.
