BTW is that a where's Waldo sighting of a Natural Light?

Here's the goody box I sent home with my mother for my elderly grandmother. Homemade bbq sauces included. Ran out of corn.

Disappointed Man, ya really gotta show your grammy some more luv'n . Take one for the team and sacrifice your ear of corn.

Funny you say that I was out of natural light and PBR on Sunday. Had picked up a case of Coors light and was drinking on that most the day.

If I had realized I was that short on corn I would have gladly given her my piece and put it in the box! My 6 year old daughter even liked it and she normally doesn't like anything but pizza and chicken nuggets. Haven't gotten her on the BBQ train yet. She thinks it gross I cook butts lol

When I was in my drinking prime they wouldn't even sell Coors around here. Something about it not being available east of the Mississippi or the Mason/Dixon line. They missed out on allot of heavy beer drinkers.

Ok, Grandma excuse accepted. My daughter wasn't into smoking meat in the beginning. Now she likes a heavier smoke and bark then I do. Geeeze daughters.

We got some good heat coming here this weekend, I’ll have to grab a 30 pack of Genny to stay hydrated.

Now that the easy part is out of the way, what to smoke? That chuck roast you have there is imprinted in my brain!

 

[smokerjim]

what a great looking meal,(meals) everything looks delicious, there must of been a lot of happy people at that party, hope the mrs. had a nice birthday. p.s. good thing you remembered about the towel this time or all your hard work would've been shot to hell!!!

Great looking eats John. I'm sure everyone had to be happy with all of that food.

Don't want to get dehydrated beer is essential! I would do the chuck roast for sure. Both of them shrunk up so after that and all the fat I picked out I probably ended up with 4 pounds of finished pulled beef off of 2 3.5 pounders.

Haha no kidding Jim. I used the good towels one time and I still hear about it to this day from the wife and that was at least a couple years ago. Wont make that mistake again! Thanks for the kind words and like!

[6GRILLZNTN]

Playing GA. State at Knoxville to kick off the season. Go Vols!

 

[SecondHandSmoker]

Now, that is an awesome looking feast.
Definitely carousel worthy IMHO.

Thanks Secondhandsmoker I appreciate the like and the kind words. Was def some good eats I should be smoking chuck roasts more often!

 

[drdon]

Fantastic looking spread! Looks like everything turned out well!

Was actually going to throw in a butt too while I was smoking the chucks but my freezer stock was depleted and the store was out of them when I went

Forget the stores! With this amount of cooking I bet you could get the local butcher to hook you up ALL the time. (Nothing against stores mind you)

Man I wish I could get a local butcher to hook me up! Wish I could get a local brewery to hook me up too!

 

[drdon]

That's a shame. I would have bet that Knoxville would be loaded with BOTH Butchers and Breweries. Might be new calling for someone.

 

[jaxgatorz]

Wow!! Awesome cook Vol... I would have been in a coma after eating some of everything. It all looks excellent

Knoxville has some good brewery's. I hit six of them last time I was there.

Thanks Jax. Was a good smoke. Gonna try to smoke some gator when we play y’all this year! Don’t think it will help haha but it’s worth a try!

There are some decent breweries around here. Was in Atlanta a few weeks ago and they have us trumped though. Drank a lot of good beer there

Which ones did you like? Smokey mountain and blackberry farms have some good brews. Forget the one on gay street but have had several of theirs too with good results
