Playing with my new toy so needed a fattier cook. I decided on some thighs. Then the Pico thread changed my mind and I knew I wanted tacos not bbq...

Smoked the thighs at 200-250 for a while, when they were at 170 IT I ramped the fire up and chucked the thighs on a lower grate until 190ish.

I didn't prep these thighs so I was expecting maybe rubbery skin, but the skin was nearly bite through. Regardless, I had my mind set and pulled the skin to slice and fry.

Also made some beans and chorizo along with the Pico.

Mall teriyaki chicken on the griddle! Finally cooling off a little and got to eat out on the patio tonight, which made this even better!

A little Seafood Delight: Lightly Sautéed Halibut with some Mussels in a White Sauce and of course our usual favorite, Steamed Artichokes.

The Halibut was just delicious.

The other night's Rapini and Beans along with some store bought Rotisserie Chicken snd Veggies from the Garden.

Rapini is an often overlooked dark leafy green similar to broccoli rabe but leafier. It is absolutely is delicious and healthy. It can be little bitter, but a quick blanch seems to cut the sometimes bitterness.

The shrimp got dusted with Old Bay, cooked in bacon grease, and served as an appetizer. The main course was Vietnamese vermicelli rice noodles, veggies, and chicken sausage. Once the noodles got a bit of crust, they were sauced with a mixture of oyster sauce, soy, sesame, and sake. The veggies and sausage were served over the noodles. No plate pics, it was too tasty to stop eating.

Super simple meal for last night's dinner - our dishwasher is out so we're falling back on dishes that can be made and eaten with a minimum of cookware and dishes (and hence the paper plates lately). Baked taters topped with butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder, shredded cheese, and smoked pulled pork from our vac-sealed leftover stash and some Rudy's Sause. This pork butt was probably the best one I'd made (got the cut from Wild Fork as opposed to the local grocer), super tender and tasty. Comfort food

Did my fifth-ever brisket with an overnight cook that I began last night. All the details right here. SnS kettle with B&B and hickory chunks overnight, transferred to the Pit Boss Copperhead in the morning, and it finished around midday. Then held it in the PB rig all afternoon at about 170/75. Came out really great except for the tip of the flat section, which dried out. Pot of chili in our near future with most of the flat meat, I'm sure

Chrzaco’s got the official call for dinner.

Seasoned ground beef with my taco blend, lettuce, cheddar, fresh avocado, tomato from our garden, purple onion, siracha, and I made a up a fresh lime crema using a base of full fat Greek yogurt, mayo, lime juice, cilantro, some ground onion, ….

Oh great…🙄 I get to follow Richard. Pretty sure no one will confuse my cook for his. Anyway, grilled thick cut pork chop, sausage and some of my world famous fresh from scratch scalloped potatoes.

The potatoes weren’t bad at all for out of the box. Anything HEB puts their name on is usually pretty good.
