We have two weber kettle grills (one LARGE and one small/average), the SnS and the Weber Smokey Mountain 18" smoker. We use both natural lump charcoal and KNB for smoking and measure our temps with a Maverick 733, thermopen and MK4. Favorite beer depends on what is cooking (alt answer is yes).

My wife is out with the girls, so it’s a total guy dinner. Had some leftover pinquitos and a couple of smoked boar sausages from Broken Arrow Ranch. Just fried the sausages to get them hot and some crisp on the outside. Doctored up the pinquitos by adding some yellow pepper and red onion, heated the beans up and then served.
With Carolina Gold and a Shiner Bock!

Dr. Pepper 2 nights in a row the wife was out and I wasn’t? No, we were home Friday night. I made a Japanese inspired pan simmered black cod, but didn’t post it.

Those do look good. What is your secret to keeping them from sticking to the grate?

Michael_in_TX somebody else on this forum (can't remember who) suggested putting lemon slices between the fish and the grates. Works pretty well

Got a few racks of lamb ribs when Porter Road had the sale the other week. I figured I'd give them another chance. Everything arrived fine. I got 2 pigskets, some beef brats (not very tasty, but I think I just prefer pork brats), and these lamb ribs.
Smoked these guys for 2 hours at 225 then ramped up to 350 for another hour to try and melt some of the fat. Didn't matter, these things are just way too fatty. I will eat all the lamb fat off a lamb lollipop or even the little lamb steaks, this was just WAY too much fat. Not a knock on PR, they delivered nicely trimmed ribs... you can't really trim the fat down because there is meat hidden in there. But these ribs were not enjoyable to eat, take a bite of fat, try and get whatever meat then spit out fat.
I did half with S&P and the other half got Hardcore Carnivore Red. If you try these, stick with S&P as most of your seasoning will be wasted. I did eat some of the outer fat. I also threw a few of these back on the MAK when I was burning off all the fat on the grill to try and make the fat more edible, but it only slightly improved it.

ItsAllGoneToTheDogs I agree completely. I love lamb, and like you, can eat the whole lollipops with the salty crunchy fat included. I bought a few lamb breasts, basically riblets with meat and fat, and smoked them. They were too fatty for everyone, even though cooked thoroughly, and a decent amount of rendered fat had accumulated in the drip pan. They would have been fine had I cut them into individual, or doublet ribs.

Experimenting with a smoked ragu type sauce. Sautéed the onion and carrot on the blackstone with 1 lb ground beef and 1 lb Italian seasoned sausage while I heated up the Kamado and Dutch oven to about 275. First time using basil and oregano from this years herb garden too.
Now the waiting game begins!

Looks good! Is that on your new patio slab you had laid?

It turned out pretty well! If I do it again, I probably won’t throw on any wood chunks, just go off the smoke from lump charcoal since it was skirting the line of "Smokey"
It is my new patio pad. Still getting the grills arranged how I want and mainly waiting out lumber prices to make some more improvements.
