Easter BBQ. What's for Dinner?

I was hoping to see some leg of lamb on sale. No meat on sale, bummer. They are stocking fresh turkeys, $1.89lb, no thanks. Those turkeys will probably be about $1 a pound next week, but then, not so fresh. I enjoy lamb, but not it's price. 5 pound boneless leg runs about $40 around here. Oh well, I make awesome chicken and ribs! With two kamados and a Weber kettle, the feast is on!

 

Well Mr. A, the chicken and ribs sound really good to me! Lamb shanks here, just went in the smoke.

 

I'm dining out tomorrow. The sounds of a BBQ do sound very enticing, wish it was a little warmer here

 

So far, so good......





Going to braise them with some broth and early greens from the garden.

 

smoking THREE pork butts today for tomorrow. Started at 7am this morning.

 

I just got some pork out of the freezer to smoke for tomorrow, the lamb shanks aren't gonna make it!!

 

Probably just a couple hotdogs..then....

 

Smoked a turkey with maple charcoal and some apple branches. Brined the turkey in salt sugar garlic and cayanne. It was Hella good.

 

3 racks of baby back ribs.....did 1 rack today as a pre-run. Not as fall of the bone as I like but competion ready lol.

 

The second run was much better, the last pic above. The grill temp is way off, under that is. Thanks to my Igrill2 I was able to adjust temp on grill to get an actually 225-230 range.


I left a few ribs dry to try out on the ends, everyone wanted sauce so I went that route.

 

They look fantastic! Nice cook on those, I bet they went fast.

 

Thanks, yeah it was nice to try a different Rub on each rack and get different reactions. I am still in the experimental phase so learning everything I can.
