Third (Or Fourth?) Cook On The Bronco

[58limited]

Raiding the freezer today to find something to cook along with some Berkshire pork ribs. Well Well Well, What Do We Have Here?




Its 1/3 of a 10 lb pork loin! Rolled it out and stuffed with some Benton's 20 month aged ham - paper thin sliced. Added some Lumbre Hatch chilies (hot) and some pepperjack cheese.



Rolled back up and covered with Benton's bacon. I didn't add salt to this loin: Benton's products are popular but are waaaayyyy too salty for me. They even ship at ambient temperature - no cold pack.

I ordered 4 lbs of bacon, when cooking it for breakfast I soaked it in water for 20 minutes to leach out some salt. Probably won't buy again.



In the Bronco at 250^o with some B&B charcoal and some hickory and applewood chunks. Ribs go on a little later.

That may win the AR pit today. Amazing

Currently listening to a baseball game on radio, sipping a bourbon, and bathing in pecan smoke from my first Bronco cook.

How did you hang it? That doesn’t look like the standard hook.

I'm about to light up a cigar and enjoy this wonderful but windy day. A little bourbon sounds good....

[Reds Fan 5]

Windy here in Chicago, too, but otherwise spectacular fall day.

Cigar sounds good but I don’t want to kill my tastebuds for the ribs.

And, it might be more than a little bourbon…

Reds Fan 5 They’re shish kabob skewers from Oklahoma Joe. I’ve got a set also, not just for shish kabobs though, they’re great.

Panhead John, thanks. I will definitely purchase these. I love smoking whole chicken and this looks perfect for that

Reds Fan 5 Check prices on Amazon, might be better or at least free shipping if you are a Prime member.

[Panhead John]

Reds Fan 5 Yep David, I just checked Amazon and they’re only $16.08 right now.

The ribs, they be on! Also, some good Louisiana Boudin that had a compromised vacuum seal.

Dry brined with a 50/50 blend of pink Himalayan salt and Red Boat fish salt. Seasoned with Lawry's seasoned pepper.

Red Boat Salt – Red Boat Fish Sauce
Red Boat Salt is infused with our famous fish sauce, which adds a natural touch of umami to any dish. Now I know and learning never stops

What are you smoking and what is in the glass?

[58limited]

Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature for the smoke - I haven't been able to source these for a few years but found some while returning home from last weeks Texas Meat-Up - I bought a box. Booze is Rumble by Balcones Distilling in Waco, Tx. It is: fermented wildflower honey, turbinado sugar, and Mission figs. So not a bourbon or really any class of whisky. Closest would be a distilled mead or maybe a rum but is all kinds of good. The glass holds about two shots, I had two glasses, then back to beer

Holy Cannoli 58limited !!!

Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair. (I hope you don't know the next verse of that sonnet... )

Cook finished. Ribs good, slightly dry but not bad. Everything else is great! Served with oven roasted smashed potatoes.

Pics suck, lighting was bad.
