Proof that it’s summer: hot dogs, baked beans, home made coleslaw.

DaveD I buy bone in, skin on in bulk when they’re on sale, and freeze them in 2 packs (this one had an odd small piece in there). I saw a Jacques Pepín vid on how to debone them easily, and after a dozen or so I got pretty good at it. I used to take the skin off, too, but they grill up juicier if I let her take it off at the end. Sometimes she does, sometimes she doesn’t.

DaveD ahh… the power of grammar. I should have said a meatball AND cheese sandwich. Not my food, but here is a picture.

Yeah, having cheese melted on top is automatic, I wouldn't even consider making a meatball sub without it! But for all that, I'm not a huge meatball sub kinda guy. Leaning toward slicing them with an uber sharp knife when they're just starting to thaw out from having been frozen, to try to get good slices, and use those as a pizza topping. Our usual delivery pizza is meatball slices & mushrooms...

This week I was in Nicollet MN and stopped at a favorite Meat Market "Schmidt;s". This is always a Great Adventure as they are about 50 miles from me so I only get there a couple times a year. They had Brisket Points, Raspberry Chipotle Bacon and for the BIG WIN Petite Tender Medallions which I reverse seared for dinner tonight. They were awesome to say the least. I think these are from the Teres Major which is usually hard to find. I may have to make a special trip back there!

Supposedly this is dish has gone viral…saw it on instagram so thought why not…I like 3/4 of the dish…cottage cheese, well lets say this is probably the most cottage cheese I’ve had in my life! It wasn’t that bad, but the bowl it self, a hot honey beef bowl, was actually really good!

Simple but really good….thick cut pork chop from the HEB meat counter, dusted with some of my favorite all purpose seasoning…Harley’s Texas Style All Purpose BBQ Seasoning. You can put it on pretty much anything. Served with some oven baked wedge potatoes with a little Cotija cheese on top. Dipped em in a mixture of 50/50 sour cream and cream cheese and a teaspoon of horseradish…

This is the best lookin' chicken breast I have ever cooked, and the skin was super crisp. However,
I somehow managed to switch from F to C on my Chef Alarm. It was taking forever for it to get to 158° F and was in the 80s, (C), when I discovered the error. I believe the temp was ~ 190° F.
As you can imagine, it was a bit dry and a little tough, but the skin was great.

Apparently it was pizza night! I did a thin crust sourdough pizza and a gluten free yeast crust tonight (kiddos with wheat intolerance). Came out darn near perfect cooked on a Lodge CI pan in the oven at 550.
Half of this pizza was pepperoni and olives, other half chicken and olives. Alfredo sauce. More details in the pizza thread.

I guess we got the memo - my lovely bride made us her BBQ chicken pizza for dinner last night. It's a Cal Pizza Kitchen copycat, better than the original IMO...

Trying out the rotisserie on my Hank’s Hot Box. I have used it a few times before, but for some reason never done a chickin’. Well, that’s about to change 😄
Just got it started, the byrd is spinning, and fat is dripping into the coals. Mmmm!

Well, this isn’t a good photo, but my rotisserie chicken turned out great! Super easy cook, took about 1 hour. I just sat in my chair with a cold beer, watching. My hot box kept 150 deg C / 300 deg F. Tasty and juicy. Gonna do this a lot more 👌

What to make when SWMBO makes WAY too much pasta the night before…the Cajun Shrimp and Sausage recipe from the team cook. Minus the shrimp and used Barese sausage cooked on the the gasser/GG.

Pizza on the kettle
4 individual pies because my family all likes different toppings.
plain cheese
white Pizza with tomato onion and sausage
sausage and onion
pepperoni
These are the best ones I've made to date. Although, as a former pizza shop employee, I'm not pleased with cheese overrunning the crust. Sloppy 😡Comment
