Smoke therapy weekend, day two; in which I make the best damn pulled chuck I've ever made. And it took <checks notes> 4.5 hours on the smoker?!!?
Yeah, I'm not sure how I pulled that off either, but here we are.
Standard Choice grocery store chuck roast, nice one but nothing particularly special. Dry brined overnight, rubbed with Bonafide, got Junior fired up, and... Junior has decided we're cooking hot and fast today. OK.
Noon:
1500 hours:
Wrapped with a couple of tablespoons of tallow:
1630, the chuckie went into the cambro, and since I need to make some room in the freezer I threw a bag of frozen meatballs on. Because having smoked meatballs is never bad.
1800. Cambro rest done time to pull:
Yeah. That'll do.

Over the weekend, I tried sous vide que - pork belly in SV for a smidge under 24 hours, then on smoker for about 3 hours (225 until pork hit 185). By that point I was getting impatient, so I blasted the skin with a propane torch.
I have zero complains about this - it turned out really well. The belly I had on hand was pretty fatty as far as belly goes, so the end result was a little jiggly. Might try this again with a less fatty cut one of these days.

I posted last week about a load of meat I got from Wild Fork Foods. First cook from the batch was a prime grade Picanha.
I wanted to do it Brazilian steakhouse style so I set up the rotisserie on the Weber 22†kettle. Trimmed, cut, and skewered. Seasoned with SPG. Spin it for about 30 minutes over the coals running at 375-400 degrees. Pulled at 130 IT and rested for about 10 minutes. Served with sautéed mushrooms. Delish.
As usual, my photos suck though. 🤷â€â™‚ï¸

Yesterday was a mild 105 at my house, with today going to be somewhat warm at 113! I cooked everything outside because no way am I going to heat up my house, with no air-conditioning. At 8 PM, when I was cooking, it was still 95.
Cooked two steaks from the Crowd Cow package that I got, corn on the cob, and made a salad. My wife said the steak is one of the best she's ever had. I thought so too. Nicely marbled, very beefy and flavorful.
Also cooked a couple chicken breasts just to have something easy for today.

Jim White I was going for a butter/cream/dijon concoction with fresh cilantro. The mustard did not incorporate properly so I gave up, didn't add the cream. It surprisingly had pretty good flavor regardless. It was time to eat and I wasn't going to spend any further time on it. So there, I've exposed my dirty laundry. Good flavors, just not a culinary masterpiece
