Did the inaugural cook with my green Weber kettle. Smoked 2.5 lbs of salmon with the Slow 'N Sear.
Getting the fire started with good help from the BBQ Dragon
Soon time to pour the briquettes into the Slow 'N Sear
I put 4 chunks of apple wood on the fire for good smoke flavor
Here it is, humming along, and I'm enjoying a glass of Riesling while waiting
The salmon with a real nice color from the smoke
Served with tagliatelle, an avocado salad and some fresh lemon on the side
I cooked it at 240° F for almost an hour. I took it off when the inner temp hit 136° F (58° C), which is optimal in my opinion.
I've done salmon this way many times, yet it was still exceptional. I attribute the difference to filling the water reservoir in the Slow 'N Sear for this. I've used the water reservoir many times before, but not for short cooks like this. Will definitely keep doing it. The SnS is a great product.Comment

It's going to be an all-Meathead dinner. Two racks of baby backs dusted with Memphis Dust Rub. They'll be sauced with KC Classic Barbecue sauce (using Meathead's American chili powder recipe, this batch turned out good enough to drink) and accompanied by Bourbon Barbecue Baked Beans.
Cooking assistance provided by @Pitboss's SNS. This is my second cook with the SNS and it's a thing of beauty.Attached FilesComment

I might need a cigarette after that. I took one bite of the ribs, looked at my fiancée and said, "You've never had better ribs." The beans turned out to be... well, beans. I'm not sure I like Meathead's "stew" idea. So next time, I'll probably use half the water (or less) called for in the recipe.

The second half of the shrimp, in a ketjap manis butter glaze.
first, make the ketjap. Soy sauce, molasses, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, bay leaf, star anise, coriander seeds, cook down to a thin syrup or until the wife complains.
Made two cups. Needed three tablespoons. Take three tbsp of butter, three of the ketjap, and one tablespoon of lime juice., stir together.
I I brushed on both sides of the shrimp, which are peeled and depooped, dry "brined" with baking soda, salt and sugar for an hour. Then rafted up tight.
I rebasted as i turned the rafts, and served with scallions, red pepper flakes and pasta.

Late Sunday tri-tip. A little more banding than I would like, but still tender and delicious! Very rich flavor in that cut! 😎Attached FilesComment

Thanks, David Parrish! It still was very juicy, as you can see, and delicious. I think I may have started the sear a bit early on this one. -
See the pink center in the first picture? The grey band around it? The sear on the outside. That's banding. The grey band is generally well done meat that you get by not searing hot enough or fast enough. It tends to be very dry, maybe cottonmouthy. Certain amount of banding is inevitable.

Pizza: thin crust (store bought) with mozzarella, onions, red peppers, mushrooms and chicken apple sausage. Forgot to take a picture of the whole pie, so here is the plate of leftovers ready to go into the fridge.
