What are you guys cooking!?

[mhinchliffe]

Watched a dismal W for my Buckeyes today. CJ 8-1/2 and I came back to the AS and cooked loaded baked ‘taters with a ribeye! A both fun and memorable day! I’m a lucky guy!
It’s sloppy because this is a cheat weekend, 26 pounds shed from this frame has helped immensely.

Plan to smoke my first turkey this week. Should be fun.

I’m curious what type of smoker you are using ? 45 years ago my brother sold something called a Mr. Meat Smoker - charcoal with a water pan above the charcoal which kept things moist. It worked very well. What I’m saying is just don’t overcook it. Nothing worse than dried out turkey.

I use a weber smokey mountain. Charcoal with a water pan over it. I will cook to 160° and pull to rest. Need to get the brine and bag today.

That’s what my brother has been having a couple decades. Seems like it was called a bullet back then.

Thanksgiving Turkey… left is Greenegg, right oven

 

[Belizeit]

Went to one of the nieces house, smoked turkey and ham. Also probably 20 side dishes and several deserts. Just a small spoon of everything and I was full.

Small turkey or big chicken?

Mine was a 14 pound turkey. Small. Only 3 of us eating and it was way more than enough.

Turkey and sausage make about the best gumbo ! That’s how you finish off a whole turkey carcass when you have extra.

First burn on my “new” grill. It’s a built in plumbed into the house LP

 

[mhinchliffe]

And seared to finish off

Plated, $8.99/lb ribeyes. Delicious. Thank you Mrs CJ8

No pics but in prep for out 3 week trip to Texas I cooked up some marinated pork butt, cut into 3/4" cubes grilled on the Blackstone. Soy sauce, ginger, garlic, some pepper then seared on the BS. Also some fried rice. By precooking stuff we don't have to eat out as much and it is easy to nuke and not have to mess with cooking on days with no time to cook... Have some taco meat made up as well. This helps when you aren't set up with your RV for a long period of time to justify getting the small BS out and set up. Now you know...

4 rib prime rib roast going in the fridge for a 3 day dry brine

 

[Belizeit]

Just about my favorite, but been afraid to try the brine.

 

[mhinchliffe]

As a beef eater all I can say is that’s gonna eat!

Went across the street this evening to the neighbors, they did some pork. I helped during the afternoon the only way they would allow me to. Eating some gumbo and consuming a couple of adult beverages while maintaining the fire.
