    Our church cooks’ dinner once a month for some unhoused guests in our community, last night I had the main course duty. I did 4 pork tenderloins, tied 2 together head to tail to get a more even cook. I used my last bit of Spogos to dry brine for several hours, then rubbed down with "W" sauce and seasoned with The Shed Rack Attack.

    Cooked on the PK360 at 275-300 for about 1 hour 20 minutes and then seared each of the 4 sides for 1 minute each. No pictures of the sliced up pieces as the guests were ready to eat. I used the Dot on one and the Meater Pro on the other after about 1/2 hour both thermometers stayed within a couple of degrees of each other.

    My wife made a delicious plum sauce to go with the pork. Here's the recipe she uses.
    • 1-13 oz. jar red plum preserves
    • 2 Tbl. butter
    • 1 small onion diced
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/3 cup chili sauce
    • ¼ cup soy sauce
    • 2 TBL. lemon juice
    • 2 tsp dry mustard
    • 3 drops of hot sauce
    • Directions
    • Sauté onion in butter until clear, 4-5 minutes
    • Mix plum preserves and all ingredients together, add to the onion, cook over medium heat, uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring often.
      It will thicken and become a beautiful red color.

      We do the same with the two in the pac tenderloins.

    Chicken Thighs. Cheap, juicy, and something for dinner. 2+ hours on the pit barrel. I ran this puppy at 325F. Crisp up the skin a little bit at that rate. With the signals and billows setup, I can run slow or fast. I chose fast(er) this time. Weavers chicken rub (overnight) with a pat of butter under the skin. I like cooking with the butter, seems to add a bit of juiciness to the cook and keep it from drying out.

    No vegetables tonight. Went a bit carnivore. I threw some KC BBQ sauce on the plate at the end just for something to slather on the chicken. Buffalo sauce would’ve been fine also. I’ll be eating this for a couple days.

    Sunday pork butt smoke. Technically started cooking at 11 pm then went to bed. Pic is a restful 8 hours later freshly flipped and rotated.
    35 pounds of pork butt. Some to be shared immediately with neighbors, some to be frozen for later.

      That’s my favorite way to do carnitas…smoked pork butt with Mexican rub!

    After Weight Loss Surgery a couple weeks ago I am on the soft proteins phase of the post surgery diet...When the nurse practitioner says that ground beef is okay especially if it is in something and uses chili as an example, I think that is a sign to fix a batch of chili for lunches this week...

    Know what tastes good after a day in the Sun and wind helping a friend pack moving pods? Homemade potato salad that’s been chilling since yesterday.

      Kind of…? I mashed a couple recipes to my liking. Absolutely there’s bacon and onion as well as egg, mayo, Dijon mustard, cider vinegar, paprika, and garlic. I was out of celery.

      I had some end cuts in the freezer from a holiday prime rib so grabbed one out of the freezer. Dry brined and rubbed with Mrs. O’Leary’s. Then low and slow with a reverse sear. Internal on cutting was 132F.

        My last Click Akuashi item: a 3.5 lb tri-tip. I one big mistake: I didn't assess the thickness of the fat cap - its thick! I should have trimmed it. Reverse sear on the SnSK with some hickory, oak, and mesquite. Meat turned out good, made some corn tortillas to go with it. I eat grilled and smoked meats like this all the time: just slap it on a tortilla and go. No toppings needed.

        The last 2" of the tail was really thin, I trimmed it off and cooked it on the same rack for a snack.

        Dang!! That fat cap! Meat is good but I really wish I would have assessed this. Since this was not a slow and low cook like a brisket it didn't render much.

          Flip it upside down and dip just the fat cap into a deep fryer to render it out. I do that on duck breasts too.

          I wish Click was still around. I loved their meat, and the prices were good too.

        Flank steak and potatoes on the SNS kettle. Used kingsford professional from Costco. Not a huge a fan of that charcoal. But the dinner was delicious.

          Bone in Pork Loin Roast
          Didn't have any Pork Rub left, so I tried homemade SPG with Paprika.
          I over seasoned the roast a little.​

          Traeger set to 225*F with super smoke

          Finally got to make the lamb stew that we had intended for last Sunday. It was worth the wait.

            Another repeat….. an Andrew Zimmern recipe where I subbed in ground salmon. We love this! Served over dressed arugula. It’s a veg-a-tah-bull

            We did another stuffed 8 bone pork crown roast the other night. Came out great but not looking so good. Got a late start and tried to push it along with higher heat. Should have been more careful when applying the glaze and kept it off the bone tips.
            My string tying was pretty bad also. 😤 With only 8 bones you can't close the crown.
