Had to make room for the new stuff, so it was tri-tip for supper tonight. Dry brined for 8 hours and then rubbed with Hanks Beef.

From there it was on to the pellet pooper set for 200° combined with a smoke tube full of hickory chips. Two hours of heat and smoke gave us an IT of 125°, so it was time to move things over to kettle.

A quick sear later, and it was time to eat.

No plated pictures. Sorry. Yes, I know, the I got the grain wrong on the first few slices. We got it sorted out after that. 😂

Another week pick up ribs and bread, this time baby backs for customers, then a rack of St. Louis spares, and a plate of dino ribs or us.

Long day on the jobs today, so a quick indoor cook. Sous vide and seared black cod served over baked farro and summer vegetables, all with a bit of roasted tomatillo salsa from the garden.

Messing around with hot sauces. This is a simple one.....just habaneros, garlic, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, sugar, and salt. The pictures don't show it well, but it came out this beautiful orange-yellow color. It's got some serious heat (with twenty habaneros, I guess it would). I want to try it again, perhaps using roasted garlic instead of straight garlic and banana instead of the sugar.

The hockey beer league I play in is having their first annual family picnic and I volunteered to make pulled pork. No pics (yet) but I have 3 butts on the 18â€ WSM, and believe it or not there’s room for a 4th. I can’t believe how versatile that little thing has been for what it cost. Bang for the buck nominee. 😆

Ok, pulled everything (pun intended) at 7:30am. For the first time ever I didn’t go over my planned cooking time. Wouldn’t have minded it if it needed to stay in a little longer, lunch isn’t until much later. I wrapped it and in to the cambrio it went. I’m going to wait until the party to pull it apart. (Although I saved a little for a pulled pork â€œegg mc muffin.

.)

I’ve been notorious for cooking things forever because they never hit their target temp. This time I bumped my cook temperature up to 275 and left the top vent open about 80%. I didn’t have any problems pulling the bones out this morning.

As always, thanks Meathead and ALL else involved for putting this site together and making me a better cook! This is something I would have probably never attempted prior to coming here and learning as much as I have.

Ribs on.
My dry rub and some Hogwaller with mayo as a binder on one side only, usually do both sides so trying something different.
Cooking on Jealous Devil lump with pecan chunks and some hickory chips I’m finishing off.
Going to try to maintain a steady 280, see how that goes

Leftover pulled pork became pulled pork empanadas just in time for college football season

My work schedule for this semester is pretty rough, I don't get out of work until 8:15 pm each night. This has made cooking on weekdays a lot harder. So what I'm trying to do, is to cook stuff on weekdays that makes lots of nice leftovers

Earlier this week I made a big ol' SVQ pork loin. Then I made some cuban sandwiches with the leftovers. Fed us all week!

Reverse-Seared T-Bone ðŸ¥© with a Bacon & Bluecheese Compound Butter! Cooked at 250F indirect, took it off at 115F internal, added some freshly lit hot coals, seared 1 min each side twice for a total of 4 min! Delicious!
