      Brioche Buns from Sam's Choice and Checkers fries. I don't think my Wal-Marts has @Panhead John's signature line of products yet, but I'll keep an eye out!

      We are currently in negotiations with Walmart to start carrying my "Signature" line of plates. They do stock my "Basics" line at this time. Due to the fact Target is now carrying my "Signature" line, the pressure is on Walmart. Watch for them to fold like a cheap tent.

      I've found the sweet spot for tri tip sous vide is 12 hours at 131° before searing on the gasser. Yours looks wonderful, done nicely for so short a time but at a higher temperature. Was it nice and tender? It sure looks delicious.

      fzxdoc It was very tender but it went a little past where I like it on the doneness scale when I seared it. Tasted great and my wife ate the leftovers for lunch, which I take as a complement!

    Had a break between meetings. Decided to sear some scallops.

    Fresh sockeye salmon and yellow potatoes on the gasser. Smoked the potatoes with some apple wood chunks before the salmon went on.

      Redman It's been nearly 20 years since the last sockeye sports fishery on Lake Washington in Seattle. It was amazing to let out the downrigger, and pull up a Sockeye just 100 meters from the 520 floating bridge carrying 20,000 cars a day across the lake. With Mt. Ranier in the background. I assume this was caught in Puget Sound? BTW, very nice!

    Supermarket porterhouse front seared on the forbid over lump charcoal them finished in the smoker at 235°F to an IT of 122. It carried over to 124°F. Side of instant garlic mashed with extra fresh garlic grated and added plus extra butter 🙄.

    It only took about 5 minutes, flipping every 30 seconds to get this sear:

      fzxdoc - Kathryn: I dry brined for a couple of hours uncovered on a rack in the fridge. Then I put a moderate sprinkling of McCormick's Spicy Montreal Steak Rub on both sides right before putting it on the fire. For doing the front sear, I always keep the meat in the fridge until the last possible moment.

      Dewesq55 Panhead John I also vote for Land 'O Lakes, but the unsalted. They now have a European style with 82% Butterfat. Our local QFC (Kroger) intermittently puts it on sale. I load up, put a few pounds in the freezer (No need to rewrap.) I would like to see a blinded taste test up against Kerry Gold, or others. (off topic, but I also prefer my butter cold, not left at room temp.)



    Cooked a Costco Prime Ribeye last night. Since I’m usually cooking a single steak, I’m able to use just one of the Weber charcoal baskets for the reverse sear. I’ve quit banking the coals or using my SnS insert for steaks. I use less charcoal with the one basket and I still get a great sear. The steak was maybe 1” from the coals on the sear.

      To save charcoal, turn your chimney upside down, fill it with charcoal, light it, and cook that single steak over the chimney. It's a bit easier if ya buy a smaller grate, but not absolutely necessary.

    Chicken rubbed with Oakridge Chicken and Pork Rub (gold bag). Mesquite, because it’s what I have right now. Pea Salad (English peas, sour cream, mayo, bacon, red onion, sharp cheddar, white pepper). not shown: corn-on-the-cob dripping in butter and cracked black pepper.

      I also like the homemade bacon, although my wife doesn't. Oh well. Mine also looks dark on the edges, from the sugar I think. Tastes delicious however. And looks delicious as well.

    Fried shrimp and Hickory Smoked Scallops on the grill. After drying the scallops when the grill was almost ready, I put the scallops in the freezer for a bit, to get them cold as possible and to slow down the cooking process while I smoked them. I put them in a dry CI skillet off heat for about 5 minutes to absorb a little smoke. I then removed the scallops and put a little butter, white cooking wine and Canola oil in the pan and placed it over the coals to searing temps. Once it was sear ready, I added the scallops and a little minced garlic. Cooked for 3-4 minutes. They came out really good with just the right amount of hickory smoke.

      Thanks Steve! I think the only thing I’d do different next time is omit the Canola oil and go with straight butter.

      My favorite batter for the fried shrimp is: Mix some flour and cold water together to the consistency of ketchup. Add a tablespoon of canola oil, and lots of Tony Chachere’s and a little cayenne pepper. Let your shrimp rest in the batter for about 5 minutes before frying. Yum!

    Did ribs two ways on the PBC for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary...

      To make it even weirder, my brother, who is a clergyman, married me and my ex-wife on his 5th anniversary. If I hadn't gotten divorced, tomorrow would be my 45th.

    Grilled some great Berkshire pork chops with Hank's KC Royale over a live fire on the Buckaroo. Served with braised cabbage and roasted yams.
