So I am finally on a plane. In seat 10D instead of 1A, which is the seat I would have been in last night. With plenty of leg room. And guess what? We are sitting on the freaking tarmac again. This time because of a problem with the plane I am on. I can't explain in words appropriate for this forum how mightily pissed off I am right now.

Sorry to hear this Kevin. The older I get, the less I like flying...Comment

We made it home to nice weather but it all changes tomorrow. I've been banned from smoking anything for a while, guess we got overloaded with great BBQ flavor.Comment

klflowers Did ya finally make it home?Comment

So we were both about 1000 miles away from the MeatUp. You flew, we drove and got home before you. So much for flying. Glad you finally made it. -
captainlee I drove to the last one I attended. And I'll drive to the next one. With coolers lol
-
Wow! I am so happy to all the pictures and read about all the good times that were had, in spite of PJ's shenanigans involving the nuns.
Someday I hope to make it out to Texas for one of these get togethers. Time will tell...Comment

A lot of people have been wondering what led up to our infamous Friday Night Pillow Fights at the Meatups. A quick rundown for everyone dying to know… at the very first Meatup CaptainMike and I got into an argument and decided to settle things the old fashioned way, with swords and bare knuckles. After this brutal beatdown, we decided to settle things in the future, in a gentler fashion, which then led to settling our differences with pillows.
ACTUAL VIDEO OF ME AND CaptainMike WARNING! NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH!

I tried some of the rubs we were given at the Meat Up. Denny Mike’s Chick Magnet was good on boneless skinless chicken thighs, but I like SuckleBusters Clucker Dust better. The SuckleBusters Meat Candy rub we were gifted is really sweet and I don’t think I would use it on anything but pork even though they say it is an all purpose rub. I wait for my grandson’s verdict on the chops tonight.Comment

Our buddy Kev-Dawg (aka klflowers) was exceptionally generous when he chose not to transport some unfinished spirits (yes, it can happen) in his luggage. I just tapped into it and boy, it is really yummy stuff (highly technical spirits analysis terminology). Thanks again brother...........

Starting to get excited …
… about the Meatup in Colorado that Panhead John so graciously offered to arrange sometime in the next few months.Comment

Alan Brice - golf course (although, once it gets cold enough around here there's not much difference).

Along with being gifted some very tasty bourbon we also had leftover kielbasa and artisan cheeses that Tom (aka Mosca ) brought for our enjoyment. David (aka 58limited ) thought ahead and brought a vac sealer to preserve the leftovers. Tonight I took those "care package" items and put them to use in a sausage, potato, and cheese casserole for dinner. The Meat Up keeps on giving..................and thanks Tom, the sausage and cheese still tasted great.

I am honored to be an honorary member of the Texas MeatUp club! Panhead John was kind enough to send me one of the coolers and all the rubs, along with some cheese storage bags! Thanks for thinking of me and Yvonne out there in the Great State of Texas! I can’t wait to try all of these!
Thank you ALL so very much!

You’re quite welcome Jim! Most of the credit goes to Mosca and a few others for coming up with the idea, and everyone wholeheartedly agreed! 😎

I did it again: last of the leftover BBQ in a pot of RG yellow eye peas. They just finished the initial boil.

I am, working at trying the new rub samples we received at the Meat Up. I used Denny Mike’s Turkey Lurkey on some smoked boneless skinless turkey breasts the other day. I really liked it and I don’t like turkey. My wife is delighted. Today I tried some of their seafood rub on air fried shrimp and I am becoming impressed with these rubs. By the way, if you like the Turkey Lurkey they list it as seasonal and available at Whole Foods. It looks like it is half price at Whole Foods compared to Amazon.Comment

jfmorris One pack of Turkey Lurkey did my 12 lb turkey last week. Of course, you may use more or less per bird than I did. jfmorris maybe
you should pick up some at Whole Foods just in case. I would hate to ruin your turkey day because you did not have enough rub. LA Pork Butt do you think 2 packs will be enough for Jim to do a 20 lb turkey?Last edited by Purc; November 13, 2024, 03:05 PM. -
jfmorris that’s a bummer. It is really expensive on Amazon. Hopefully ordering direct won’t eat your lunch on shipping.

LA Pork Butt Looks like $7.95 flat rate shipping for spices direct from Denny Mikes. Still ends up cheaper than buying a single bottle on Amazon, but makes sense to get multiple bottles to defray the shipping.
I'll try the spices out and see what else I like before spending any cash.Comment

jfmorris I just ordered a dual pack of Turkey Lurkey and Chick Magnet (We do al lot of Chicken) and Fintastic Seafood rub because I really liked it on the shrimp I did. Also, I liked the Chick Magnet.Comment
-
I'm putting on a rotisserie chicken on in a few minutes and used the Chick Magnet. It smells nice and earthy, I'll report back. -
Chick Magnet was excellent. The only problem was that I didn't put enough on. As typical for me I go light on a rub the first time that I use it, mostly because of possible over salting. This rub is perfectly balanced and you can go heavy. It's on the list to order.
