Today is Hatch chile day!!!
I found fresh Hatch green chiles at our local Homeland! W00T!
Was already planning on doing some brats over charcoal, so I decided to push that back an hour or two and do up some chiles to freeze first!Comment

Smoking some ribs, roasting more hatch chies, and making a hatch chili and tomatillo salsa with a touch of texastweeter 's ghost peppers for a kick.

Never realized how hard it is to get a good pic of chili but here’s the best I can do. Brisket chili recipe CaptainMike hooked me up withAttached FilesComment

Yeah, I thought it was kind of small-sized. I usually start with 5 - 6 lbs of brisket meat and adjust accordingly, but you worked with what you had. Now the fun part starts and you can do your own riffs! Thanks for taking me along for the ride, this was fun. texastweeter before too much longer we might all be sneaking in beans to stretch a meal!

Simple meal. Burgers and brats. And leftover graham cracker bars.

fzxdoc I cut it in half when I made it and used an 8x8 pan -- for the measurements here, I'd use a 9x13 pan for thicker bars like this. -
Michael_in_TX I always cook them where the grill gets hot -- it seemed especially hot last night! -

Well I was all set to grill up some bacon cheeseburgers tonight. But nooooooo. Wifey saw a tv commercial for Burger King and decided she had to have a Whopper with cheese. That’s right. Instead of my homemade burgers that she swears she loves, she needs a fast food burger. 🤦 She is a marketing department dream. TV and email ads get her every time. BUT it gets better! After spending over $20 on carryout, she comes home, eats about 4 bites of a Whopper and a few fries and declares she is full. AND better still! She doesn’t like leftovers of any kind so before I can stop her she tosses 3/4 of her burger and a half order of fries. 😡🤬🤨👎
So no cook for me to show you all today. Thanks for listening. I kind of feel better. NOT!
Update: It’s about 45 min since we ate the takeout food. NOW she says she’s hungry again! Ahhhhh! 😵â€ðŸ’«🤯Last edited by Jfrosty27; August 21, 2022, 05:19 PM.Comment

I have a passion for cooking for others. Today's smoke was just such an occasion. I owed the neighbor for all the help he has given us here at the Casa. The old Traeger 780 got her mileage in today kicking out a wonderful looking and tasting 7.5 lb pork butt.
The smoke ring on this was stunning and the first taste was out of this world. Next time around I will be using the same rub for a family smoke.
I am so appreciative of all my fellow Pit Master Members. You have all been wonderful companions on this journey.
And the journey only grows with each passing day and the turning of each new page in my rather large cookbook library.

I had some leftover ground bison from the meatballs that I made yesterday, so Oklahoma burgers it is!

More Detroit style pizza off the Roccbox. The top half is pepperoni for me, the bottom is just olives for the LW.

Our town has an annual BBQ competition and I went for the first time yesterday since 2019. They skipped it in 2020 and I was in The North Woods of Wisconsin last year. My buddy was on a team and they did a whole hog. Excellent. The team next to them did trays of ribs on their LSG offset and invited us to try them. They were amazing. Couldn’t get over how many WSMs and kettles I saw. Over 40 teams and the WSMs were everywhere.
I actually thawed these ribs on Friday. I picked them up at a Wild Fork in Skokie last week. The top rack is Berkshire pork and the lower rack is not. Too rack on WSM and lower rack on Silverbac. Both were amazing. The Berkshire were the winner but since we ate both racks there no losers. Well except the Cubs. But that’s to be expected.Attached FilesLast edited by radiodome21; August 21, 2022, 09:14 PM.Comment

Just finished smoking a pork butt on my Camp Chef Woodwind 24. I just can't say enough good things about this smoker. The temps are pretty consistent, the smoke level is about perfect (my boss wife doesn't like heavy smoke), and the ease of cooking isaking me feel like a lazy bum. Rolled out of bed this morning at 0440hrs, started the pellet smoker, waited 10 or 15 minutes for the startup phase and temp to hit, tossed the butt on there. Don't gete wrong, I love my Smokey Mountain, but jeebus!
Anyway, 9 hours later, pulled the pork out when it hit 205 and put it in my cooler to rest for an hour. It turned out awesome! Made enough to freeze a few pounds and give a pound and a half to my neighbor.Attached FilesComment
