Getting a slow start, but got things in the WSM and am in casual mode letting it do it's thing...

(linky pic to gallery)



Feel free to tag pics and/or a post of whatchas 'all are smokin'...in the WSM that is...speaking for myself, I rolled me a fattie, and now I'm smokin' it!

I've been noticing a familiar trend. Everyone posting picture has beautiful marble countertops lately. My crappy apartment kitchen can't compare.

Tom,

If it makes you feel any better, when I bought the house those counters were formica, and due to an unfortunate oil fire in our kitchen, we were left with a rebuild that required the entire kitchen to be gutted. A friend I went to high school built the cabinets for me. I sold my sailboat to ensure that my wife got a nice kitchen...

Seriously, I could get some of those brightly colored paper plates, maybe, and serve pieces of toilet paper in lieu of any we have around, if that would make you feel better...but the fact is that you could take great looking pics in your crappy apartment with a tad of effort.

but I have to tell you something...because it's funny you posted about this...I was almost not gonna take decent pics, but in surfin' TVWBB, I was looking at Chris' pork butt article (yeah, I should have looked at it before I tossed mine in the WSM, but what the hey
icon_wink.gif
), and I noticed that he was serving his meal on a white ceramic/similar plate like my wife uses...so I started to feel not as bad, and tucked my shirt in, tied my shoe laces, zip'd up my pants, I'm feeling pretty good again, can't wait for dinner!

I'm hoping the ribs and fattie will be done by then...

Just so you don't think we're all poshy buying those William Sonoma cutting boards, here's where my wife got that one in the foreground...

I could use a box from a 12-pak of beer instead of the cutting board, if it would make 'ya feel better...Since I don't drink beer though, I'm not sure what I would do with all the beer, maybe I can shove them up a chicken!

Just finished a meatloaf. Used modified Chris A's recipe (2 lb gr. chuck, 1 lb gr. pork, added 1/2 cup of sauted diced onions and red bell pepper), slathered on some good 'ol #5 sauce (with onions and seranno pepper - this is really one of the best bbq sauces I've ever had), apple wood smoked...fantastic.
 
Oh come on Bryan, you can't be serious, can you?

It's already almost 7:00pm your time, you should be well recovered!

To save some face, Burger King does cook the meat with a fire!

I couldn't get a brisket locally, I wanna try the burnt ends...but spares were on sales...so...life decides things for all of us sometimes...

I still can't believe you're eatin' at Burger King, you must have left overs... or did you eat it all?????

But tell me, why does you fry box say "FRYPOO", where does that stuff come from?

Don,

That sounds good, my wife tries to get me to cook stuff not on a bone sometimes...but she prefers the kettle (grill) for much stuff...my family also...tri-tip can save me from the WSM blues with my family, and I like that...this sounds good, I'll have to dig the recipe Chris A posted, he's got some great stuff up his sleeves...do you guys cook those in a foil pan?
 
Picked up a 6# flat and did a high heat cook. Had some grilled corn and ABTs too.

Rubbed and on;

163 degrees and on it's way to foil;

Sliced;

Plated and brushed with some No. 5 sauce;

All was good. The smoke ring was a lame, but the flavor was awesome.

I need a nap now.
 
Drats, an emergency requires I pulled the fattie, my son is complaining about being hungry...a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do...

That's about 4 hours at 225 with a slight spike for a check...my butt's not burning too much, 162...

Bill,

THANK YOU, for posting that brisket...I couldn't get one, and sulking over it...

Darn that looks good...

It says FRYPOD from the back.
"Hands free... Well almost.
No need to hold the carton in one hand and grab fries with the other. Just stick it right in your cup holder and use your go-to hand to start pickin' those fries up."

Bill, nice pics and great looking food.

Well my wife just went to the store for some baking soda for me....but I do have a ribeye thawed and mariniating a bit...and the meatloaf sandwiches for lunch were pretty outstanding.

but, recovered??

I think they should offer a hanger for their drinks, so folks can run an IV tube in their mouth while driving. If they did it right, just as a lab rat one could just suck on the tube...

Bill saved us with a Bryan spread...he probably learned some from 'ya!

OMG, Larry has gone to the dark side...next I'll be doing one of those high heat briskets...the thought of it...
icon_eek.gif


Bill, yeah, I think Bryan has taught a few folks how to use their bullet, it's ghastly to see that BK pic, with a cup holder for fries...that's too much in itself...I think it's good I don't eat too much fast food...
icon_biggrin.gif


Jonathan, what can I say...WOW! All that stuff looks great, and the guests were pretty serious there...that last pic says it all, even the big guy got his fill this weekend!
icon_wink.gif
Nicely done, brother of the 'que, nicely done indeed...I have a lot to learn from you folks...I'm picking stuff up slowly...the fattie was a nice surprise, that's a nice trick to have on the 'que...good to keep the natives from getting restless...so to speak...
icon_smile.gif


I'm watchin' your thread on that high heat brisket Larry...I need to see if you become transformed over to the dark side...

In my defense, those 23 beers put a hurtin' on me today. I know, nobodys fault but my own... but still I was in no mood to cook. And this is only the third time this year I ate at BK. That's the only fast food place I eat at.
