PitCast Episode 102 - The "Rack Slabbath" Interview - April 12, 2018

[BBQCentralShow]

This week we head back to getting to know "US" a litle bit better...and rack_slabbath takes his turn on the hot seat. Tyler (IRL name) talks about his career, his family, what he likes to cook, what kind of cookers he has and when he found Amazinribs.com. Before that, I do a news item about the "under-cooking" of steak in restaurants across the country...IT'S A TRAVESTY!!

[Jon Solberg]

AWESOME show guys! Love the passion Tyler! rack_slabbath

[rack_slabbath]

Calling him Smokehead made me feel like a Butthead!

rack_slabbath just noticed you live in Graham. I'm right down 40W in Kernersville. Small world.

[Hulagn1971]

rack_slabbath just listened. Lowe's Foods carries tri-tip. They are vac sealed. Go to a big one in your area.

[rack_slabbath]

Someone else told me that Lowe's carries tri-tip but I asked the meat manager at my local one about them and she said they don't know when they will get them in. I'll check at another one.

[Hulagn1971]

Try to find a new or upgraded Lowe's. They are usually more upscale and have the stuff the older one's don't.

Undercooking of steak. I remember one of Kenji’s lectures he said that most line cooks are too "macho" to use a thermometer. I guess there’s a lot of truth in that. I’m about 50% getting a decent steak at a restaurant and 100% at home.

They wouldnt lose lose money by overcooking if they used a thermometer and cooked it correctly the first time.

That myth about juice gushing out if you poke a hole in the meat with a thermometer refuses to die, just like most of the other food "lore".

[Huskee]

Dang, I'm 50% at home

[Polarbear777]

It’s really hard to screw it up when you SV them, which is pretty much all I do now for steaks.

[Mr. Bones]

Another Great Interview!!!
Fine Job, rack_slabbath BBQCentralShow ! !

I enjoyed very much, brothers!

[KB9VGD]

I never order a steak at a restaurant. If I want it done right, I do it at home on the grill AND always use a thermometer.
