    While I was smoking a brisket on the new cooker, I decided to cook some of the meat in the fridge on the Kamado Joe. I had a rack of ribs and a bit of ground beef.

    For the ribs I dry brined them and let them sit for a couple hours. Then rubbed down with mustard and applied some Slabs Perk Up Your Pork rub. I got the KJ stable at 225-ish and put the ribs on indirect over the diffuser with an empty drip pan underneath. After about six hours they passed the bend test. Did not foil. My wife wanted hers without sauce so I gave her half the rack dry. The other half I sauced with Blues Hog and put back on the KJ to caramelize. They turned out great. Tender but still a bit chewy, with a nice smoke ring.




    For the burgers I used some mustard as a binder (wife is allergic to eggs). Added some garlic and onion powder, some Dizzy Pig Cow Lick and some worchestershire sauce. Formed the patties, got the KJ up to about 400 after finishing the ribs and I threw the grill grates on the KJ upside down (I've enjoyed grilling burgers and steaks on a griddle lately due to the crust). Burgers for lunch tomorrow!

      ribs still look great tho=)

    Just finished slicing up roast for jerky. Got it marinating until the weekend. Rewarded myself with french bread and chocolate milk! Living that Ferris Bueller life today......how could I possibly be expected to handle work on a day like today?

      SteveFromLafayette how thick do sliced the meat? Do you mind sharing your marinade recipe?

      DWCowles I try to slice it around 1/8th inch thick. Partially freeze (not rock solid but firm) the meat for easier slicing. Trim any significant fat off. Keep your knife sharp.


      I like to use soy sauce, teriyaki, cajun seasoning and a small amount of brown sugar.

    A brisket and rack of baby backs.

        Ah, Tilapia. My youngest has really gotten on my case to make tilapia. Looking at your tacos I think I am going to try something similar.

      I'm in the club now! Boneless skinless chicken breasts FTW!

        Just in a stainless steel pan. Wanted to keep it as simple as possible tonight. Didn't get a great sear but the chicken was great.

      Here are some recent, albeit somewhat boring, cooks:

      My mother-in-law recently had hip surgery. So, we picked up groceries and went over there this evening and cooked dinner - burgers, baked beans and macaroni salad. Simple stuff.

      Smoking 4 racks on my mixon smoker. 2 st. Louis and 2 babybacks. Funny thing while I was smoking an hour ago a shoot out between my next door neighbor drug dealer and the state police. Real interesting. Checking temp and finding a place to hide. Lol. Wife freaked out..

        Criminetly, MagWarrior, I'd say it's time to move, wife, Mixon smoker and all! The sound of gunshots in the 'hood must do a number on real estate values though. Stay safe, man.

        You win the full contact cooking award for sure! Doc said it best.

      Pulled chuck. Put two on the offset so I could empty my gas tank for a long butt smoke next weekend. Less than 2 hours it was empty. Off to the Pit Barrel.

        Not nearly as exciting as MagWarrior's cook, but had to take advantage of the wonderful weather in Altadena today.

          No bullet holes in the smoker....not exciting at all.

        I love seasoning a kettle after a good cleaning. : )

            Maybe the State Police were looking for any excuse to get close to the marvelous smells wafting off that Mixon Smoker! Just kidding. Hope your cook turns out great, whatever is going on.

            Booo! Booo1 I like St. Louis myself. Can't imagine why you would have a swift "grab and go" in that neighborhood.

          The wife pick up a pack of Jalapeno Chedder Bratwurst patties at Wally World yesterday and I grilled them on the Weber gasser today...They were FANTASTIC especially with Spiracha mayo, tomato and lettuce on a toasted bun. Click image for larger version

            I've made brat patties before and my family and I are fans, they are tasty suckers. We like the mushroom & swiss ones. A drizzle of yellow mustard and I'm happy.

          Sorry no pics, my computer and camera or not playing well together. Cooked beef ribs for the first time on my Camp Chef pellet grill and was really pleased.
