Did steaks on the stove last night too.
I told the Wife it'd been ages since we had done them indoors, but with the weather and seeing she had just bought me a set of HexClad pans with a Black Friday deal I said why not?
Two 1 -1/4" NY strips in the pan and finished in the oven with a pat of...
One of the first turkeys I smoked was on an ECB (El Cheapo Brinkman) water smoker.
Man, that thing took forever.
Tasted great but trying to dial that thing in on a cold windy day was useless.
Love my Ryobi twin 40V.
Used it twice today, 3" both times. Did mine and my neighbors on one charge.
I do like the quiet part as you can hear cars or the plow coming when near the street.
Still have my gasser two stage for the big one!
When they get gunked up, I'll soak overnite in a degreaser like simple green.
Rinse and bang them on the side of a bowl and rinse again.
They usually come out almost new again.
Looks good butt marinades only penetrate 1/4" or so. Fine for thin things like steak, chops or chicken.
Too much mass for a marinade to work on a butt IMO.
Was it injected or brined at all, could you taste it all the way or just on the bark?
