Always looking for interesting ways to use leftover BBQ. Made pasta e fagioli tonight and added some diced smoked short ribs that we cooked this week. Highly recommended.

It’s been a minute or two since I have posted. This getting a real job outside of the house has really cramped my cooking style….. I’ve been pulling 50-70 hour weeks and it’s not looking to lighten up anytime soon. I’ll know more tomorrow. So, I have for you today, judges is grilled chicken and zucchini. Chicken from my friends farm. Zucchini from csa. Chicken finished with MH bbq sauce. This was a comfort meal to ease the week away. Not shown: Mac and cheese outta the box because I’m dang tired. this was a half spatchcock on BFs plate, my plate had the leg quarter.

klflowers and stever R. No office… as it were. I am putting together a food and beverage program for a bougie fitness club. It stinks because of all my allergies.
I’m allergic to vegan, gluten free, fake nails, Botox, duck lips, fake ta-ta’s, posterior implants, and Orange County, ca.
But it pays the bills.
DTro I would have snagged the wing, too, but BF was hungry and ate it up before I got to it.

Smoked up a hunk of Coho
Glazed with Korean BBQ sauce. Coulda used a bit more sugar, but it was really good.
And then, since I found a 2-bone rack of beef back ribs in the freezer, I decided to counter the Swedish Menace and make up a beef rub. I mean, since Henrik is all mean and hates America now someone has to step up. I'm not the hero we deserve, but I'm the hero we have.
Rubbed with Fauxnafide and on the smoker with some apple wood.
4-ish hours later:
And done. Did I manage to clone Bonafide? Not quite, but I'm dang close. If what I made was the only beef rub I could use I wouldn't be mad about it.

I hadn't used my 26" kettle for quite a while so I fired it up yesterday and smoked some ribs and coleslaw.

This was a couple nights ago in the Huron National Forest on the AuSable River in northern MI. 6 strip steaks, dry brined a few hrs ahead of time with Henrik's Hanks Signature Steak rub, cooked over live fire with what was most likely maple coals but not entirely sure. Yum, they were delicious and so tender. Honestly, as many steaks as I've made on various cookers, live fire wins hands down.

The inlaws came with a gift, a couple of two-pound, grass-fed beef briskets.
Thanks pit members, for your suggestions and help!
The Plan:
-Dry brine for as long as possible
-rub P&G
-cook 250º over charcoal and oak
-inject tallow (first time for me)
-spill tallow all over the stove and floor (okay, not really part of the plan)
-boat or wrap depending on bark and cooking time (I did both)
-probe for doneness
-rest
-Eat Good Beef. -it worked

Panhead John The potatoes were well received. They got a nice crust and a dusting of Tony C’s. Hard to compare only because its been a while since I did a straight roast.
FireMan Thanks brother!

Used some of my stock today, made chicken and artichoke noodle soup. I did add 1 chicken bullion cube since it was 50/50 stock and water.
Anyway, carrots, artichoke hearts, smoked then cubed chicken breasts, fresh parsley and chives from the garden along with some dried dill and the killer ingredient... lemon juice. Only thing I would change is I shoulda quartered the artichoke hearts.

I should not be left unattended. My wife was out of town for the weekend, so I planned to experiment a little bit. I decided to do some baby backs and use an unconventional seasoning. Ajika seasoned ribs. I dry brined them overnight using kosher salt. As a binder I used the mustard sauce I doctored as found in the Recipes channel then seasoned liberally with Ajika seasoning.
After smoking
Then I decided to try a roasted corn puree. Roasted corn in the husk on the Weber gas grill for 20 minutes. Put the corn in the food processor with butter. When it was done, I added some charred yellow, orange, and red sweet peppers that I had done on the grill
I liked the flavor on the ribs. Tried a mustard-based sauce and some Sweet Baby Ray's but neither seemed quite right for this seasoning. Might have to try something else
