So we are full time in our RV. Large or cumbersome smokers are not within our means to transport.

Really? Put a tow hitch on that thang...

Beef back ribs this weekend

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Got a full packer a little while back, separated the point from the flat, corned both, cooked the point as is and the flat went into the smoker to make pastrami, wrapped it at 160f now waiting for it to get to 203f.

And a pic of the regular corned beef as well, cause why not. Don't wanna talk about my first cut, realized after that I went with the grain, and I'm not even drinking...

Jerky is in the smoker, first check after about 2 hours. I sliced a bit thicker this time. Gonna need a few more hours and maybe the dehydrator over night.

Yesterday's cook: 6lbs of Smoked chuck and 2lbs ground Bison for TX style chile. Made a mean bowl of Frito pie.

This went on the Weber Smoky Mountain this AM. Kingsford and Pecan/Cherry chunks. 225F.

Question? If i had a pellet smoker would I drink less Bourbon? Hmmmmmmm….

Final product of the pastrami posted above, good batch, Maybe more black pepper next time, the last one I did the pepper was a bit much, and I love pepper, this one not enough, gotta find that sweet spot. Definitely happy in any case. Got several pounds, didn't weigh it but I'd guess 6 or 7lb.

Getting in a smoking/grilling rut... Ribs and meatloaf, meatloaf and ribs.

Need to hit another pork butt and/or brisket

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Yeah, but smoked meatloaf is so freakin good. I've been there though, smoke the same couple things over and over, gotta switch it up.

How about some beef cheeks?!? I pulled out the 7# pack to thaw...

 

[catdaddy6676]

Got the first batch on! 3-4 hours smoked then the same braised... Then the second batch goes on. Pretty jazzed about it, actually. Just checked the crockpot and they are super tender already

I’ve avoided this hobby because I don’t need another rabbit hole to fall down. Well, yesterday I found an old Traeger (lil Tex?) at a garage sale for free. Needless to say, yep another hobby. I started simple with pork ribs. Wife loved them and I’m hooked. I’ve long made fun of my pellet smoking friends for “cheating” but i guess im one of those cheaters now.

I know how you feel! My brother got me an 18" Weber kettle for Christmas two years ago after he began grilling. I was 56 and almost never grilled but now I do 4-6 times a month. Happy with the results and I'm still digging through that rabbits hole lol
