Another experiment
Edit: added outcome - slightly dry ribs, more dry corn, poppers off my personal Scoville scale. After a day long cook I was so hungry I couldn't wait to eat before thinking of pics. Next time I promise.

Counterclockwise snake? My OCD just can't handle that. -
Counter clockwise felt so unnatural. Never again.

I recently won 2nd prize in a major contest. To celebrate instead of ordering pizza I covered myself in flour and cooked it myself! Family gave it the thumbs up! I’ll have something nice to say about the new ninja pizza oven in the pizza forum soon

Tacos! thin cut ribeye, chorizo, grilled onion, cheese and avocado. Got to this point when I realized I'd forgotten to chop onion and cilantro. I just doused 'em with a generous amount of Red Beards Green Gator sauce and everything was just fine.Comment

Ok, ya gotta try this!
After my hamburger tacos came out so good last night, with Cholulas taco seasoning, I decided to try this on some oven baked chicken wings. Mixed a packet of the Cholulas with 3 or 4 tablespoons of canola oil and a few shakes of Tobasco. Stirred it up in a bowl and mixed the wings with it all over. I then put the wings on a sheet pan rack in the oven on 400* for about 30-40 minutes.
Ready for the oven…
They were delicious! I had enough hamburger stuff leftover for another taco. My only nitpick is I didn’t get them crispy enough. I have a convection oven but forgot to hit the button for that. 🙄 Nevertheless, the Cholulas Taco Seasoning makes a great tasting coating for wings too. Trying it next time on the grill. You could easily air fry these also.Last edited by Panhead John; May 16, 2026, 06:54 AM. Reason: Contrary to popular belief I can’t spell…..🥸Comment

Had the family over for a pizza party. Smoked some wings, finished them on the grill for a little extra crisp, then topped them with homemade white BBQ sauce.
The pizzas came out solid too, but I’m still dialing in the sweet spot on the Ooni between getting the crust fully cooked and not scorching the pie. Feels like every cook gets me a little closer though.

Picked up some lamb loin chops at Whole Foods and added a lemon-butter orzo and salad.

Jfrosty27 Couldn’t you cook lamb chops for yourself and make the wife something else she’d like at the same time?

I did a couple NO WRAP Overnight Pork Shoulders last night on the BGE. They had to power through a few rain showers but they turned out pretty good. Now we have some in the freezer.Comment

Kids came home from school yesterday and stated, 'we want musubi for dinner'. I had no better idea than that, so musubi it was. I started prepping and realized I donated my Spam to the food bank when we moved, so I had to run to the market for that. Made the teriyaki sauce from scratch this time; came out great and will do it again. Double batch, 14 pieces:
Not the prettiest pics, but they will do. I used two different kinds of furikake because I ran out. My DD didn't like the newer one, but my DS and I liked both.
Next up, pulled beef.Comment

First attempt roasting coffee on HB. Took some McGyvering. This is the 2nd basket I bought as the first’s mesh was too big. The basket takes a 1/4” rod, motor = 5/16 so figured I would apply Liquid Metal but found it too runny then to slow to dry. In flash of brilliance I realized a section of bamboo I had would make a perfect mold which then needed filing to size. The latch is sketchy so paper clip to secure it. Had to buy collars. Previously was roasting coffee in a large skillet. Does make for smoother coffee.
Both methods produce a good bit of variability in color and degree of roasting. Skillet method works well though. See how it tastes tomorrow.

I love the setup. I've not roasted my own beans, though I worked for a coffee roaster for a couple years in another life. I've heard you can roast coffee in a stir-and-pop style popcorn popper, but I've not found one in my thrift adventures.
The coffee will continue to outgas CO2 for days, depending upon how you store it. Tip for anyone wanting to roast: do it outside or in a well ventilated area. Roasting coffee stinks, literally.
