Show Us What You're Cooking! (SUWYC) - Volume 42, SUMMER 2026

Today's cook was a brisket-style Tri Tip in the Hasty Bake. There were no complaints.

[Hulagn1971]

Looks great, an extra compliment goes to your choice of briquettes.

[SmithsOK]

Thanks Guys!! Regarding the briquettes, I started using B&B after they had the B stamped into them, so I never got the brittle ones. From the standpoint of cook time, consistency and being able to run a clean fire, I really like B&B charcoal.

Tri-tip like a Brisket = Trisket?
You done did good, PBR Light Good

We were at our son’s house for my wife’s birthday today. He made an American Waygu brisket from SRF. About ten hours on his OKJ Bronco followed by about three hours resting in a cooler. He put it on at 4:00 AM this morning.

It was perfect. Tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Yum. He has a knack.

Chip off the ole block! Wood chips off the butcher block, that is!

[klflowers]

He has great taste in plates! Looks great, he must be a chip off the old blockhead

[dpearce]

That's the High Life! Dang, forgot to put mine in the pics yesterday. Nice work!

[Matt_Leaf]

Family friends visiting my parents and they requested ribs. Made a bourbon honey glaze to finish them

[Hulagn1971]

Haven’t had a NY strip in months, got me a 1 1/2” Prime strip from HEB. Flipped over some hickory on the SNS. Ain’t never done shiitake mushrooms with a steak so I tried em out tonight….oh yeah! Sautéed em in butter with a little garlic salt and pepper, much better than my usual white mushrooms. Baked tater for the side.



I like to dress up a little when I hit HEB on the weekends.

[SheilaAnn]

That’s cool that you let George Clooney borrow your suit. Looks good on him.

[bbqLuv]

Sorry I could not make it over there for dinner. I'm sad.
Looked at what I missed.

[texastweeter]

I just laughed so hard I think I farted.

[barelfly]

Fireside dinner tonight! Chuckeye steaks and bakers!!!!!

[cruiseplanner1]

Love a chuck steak. We used to do them all the time. A nice flavor to them

[SheilaAnn]

Shrimp Ceviche! Argentinian Pink Shrimp, shallot, lime, tomato, cucumber, avocado, cilantro, lemon drop peppers.

lemon drop peppers from CSA. Nice little spicy pepper; the aroma is citrusy and a hint of pineapple. Think Peruvian cuisine! Aji Amarillo.



shrimp with csa limes and shallots



veggies: tomatoey, lemon drop pepper, cucumbers, cilantro and a squeeze of orange, I added avocado just before plating.



plated

[bbqLuv]

I would eat that in a heartbeat

[Richard Chrz]

Heck yeah!

[texastweeter]

Ceviche is one of my favorite dishes. Have actually made it with crappie, red onions, thin sliced Serrano peppers, and fresh lemons on the boat in a red solo cup before!!!

[realdocBBQ]

Not really cooking, but this was my latest creation.



I think I started with... 22lbs or so of pork belly, after curing, smoking, then drying in the fridge for a few days, ended up with a hair under 19lbs.

When I went to put it in the freezer, I realized I still have about that much in there from the last batch - we haven't been cooking much bacon the last couple months. Sooooo... some friends, neighbors and coworkers might end up with some. I've got a small catering cook this coming weekend, I might slip them a pack of bacon in as a bonus surprise. lol

[texastweeter]

I like the way you roll. Good looking portion control there. Everyone gets their own bag.

[GolfGeezer]

Made one of our favorite dinners last night. SRF Wagyu ribeye steaks, SV'd at 131* for 1.5 hours, let cool, then reverse sear on the SnS. Roasted/air fried potatoes and fresh broccoli. And wine, of course!

[GolfGeezer]

Panhead John At least she didn’t want brussel sprouts….😱

[Hulagn1971]

Perfect steak and perfect meal. Ftr I love broccoli and brussels sprouts.

[bbqLuv]

Beautiful cook meat to balance broccoli and brussels sprouts
Good you done did.

Breaking in the new 3 Nail skillet. I seasoned it twice and then cooked a pound of bacon (in two batches) yesterday. Today I made hash browns in the bacon grease. It is truly non-stick and actually better than my seasoned cast iron skillets for hash browns. No final picture but I got the hash browns a good dark brown in color before plating.

The hash brown recipe is from an old Southern Living cookbook that my parents had, not sure where it is now. It calls for a batter of flour, milk, and S&P. The recipe calls for par-cooked diced potatoes but I started to julienne them with my cheese grater to skip that step. Same with the onions. I added hot Hatch chilies to this batch, no green chile flavor but the heat was there.

[Hulagn1971]

Oh hell yes.

[SheilaAnn]

Double hell yes!

Beef Short Ribs on the Ranch Kettle. SPG and a little coffee rub from PS Seasonings

[Hulagn1971]

I think this is the first post I've seen on AR with someone using a ranch kettle. Nice work sir, those look beautiful.

[skyuka]

Chuck roast on the Hasty Bake 357 Pro rotisserie. Soon to go into the braise, then fire-roast the veggies/fruit for salsa. Tacos tonight!

[barelfly]

TACOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jerod Broussard]

That's cool. Here, stay tied to these forks.

[Jfrosty27]

I’ve never thought of chuck roast on the rotisserie. Interesting idea. Sure looks good! May need to try it. 🤔

[cruiseplanner1]

Fried up some of the perch I caught Friday morning and got out some frozen seasoned potato wedges.

[Jfrosty27]

My grandparents had a bait shop in far northern Wisconsin when I was a kid. My siblings and I spent whole summers there. Perch and bluegill by the cooler full every day. Pan fried and delicious for nearly every meal. I still love it.

[texastweeter]

Yessir, dont get much better than that!

[texastweeter]

klflowers it built character. Its like paying taxes...

[Finster]

First soup of the season…. even though it’s really not yet soup season.
Garlic Parmesan Chicken Chowder.
It was a hit so will be mixing into the soup rotation

[Jfrosty27]

It’s always soup season in my opinion. Yours looks outstanding. Yum.

[58limited]

That looks great! Please post the recipe.

[SheilaAnn]

All these gorgeous steaks lately made me crave a little steak. Wagyu ribeye, reverse sear with a smidge of hickory. Mushroom caps. Arugula dressed with olive oil and balsamic. Baker (dressed at the table).

[Jfrosty27]

Yup. Winner.

[LegoMySearwood]

I want steak now. Looks good.

[bbqLuv]

Good you done did

[wrgilb]

Decided to try a tri-tip brisket style. Everyone enjoyed it, I'll do it this way from time to time, just for some variety. 275 for about 4 hours to 203 IT on a pellet smoker, then a quick sear over charcoal. I didn't keep track of the exact time, my bad.
