my wife brings dinner to her parents on Saturdays and asked me if I would bbq something for them. i proudly told her yes, thinking i'd be grilling some chicken or sausages or burger steaks. then she came home from the market with Prime filets and lobster tails. I grilled them, packaged them and sent them on their way without a taste. my wife and in-laws said it tasted excellent. kids and I ordered pizza.

So, a couple of firsts for me yesterday. I brined a pork butt in salt water for about 3 hrs. before smoking it ( a first). Then I cooked it until done without using the "crutch" (another first). Also did a first cook on my new Weber22. I smoked some chicken by placing the charcoal in the "snake" method ( another first) and laying chunks of hickory every so often. As an observation, I think the butt was a little drier than normal because I wasn't able to capture the fat and juice inside the tinfoil.Last edited by Starsky; March 28, 2021, 06:29 AM.

I am proud to contribute to the Spring SUWYC for the first time with a progressive meal we basically ate all day.
We started with prepping fruits and veges for the grill... bell/poblano/Hungarian wax peppers, onions and tomato for vege skewers. For the fruit, we had pineapple, papaya, mango and apple. Skewer time
We were hungry, so the results pic is kinda sketch, obviously a subset of the original taken after we had eaten significantly.. it was good, nothing earth shattering... yet Things really kicked off with the bacon wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese. These went so fast, no picture was achieved. With the Weber Kettle set up for 2-zone a humming, we threw on some wings. One had been dry rubbed w/Malcom’s BBQ Rub, the other just salted. After playing some Spikeball while they cooked, I sauced hot bbq sauce and the other set with spicy garlic Buffalo sauce. After breaking out the Buffalo trace to aid in digestion and watching some March Madness, we decided to proceed with the Ribeyes. Pulled in the rare/medium rare range, served with wine, bourbon, and some bread to sop up those tasty juices we then collapsed in victory... Happy weekend all!
