Even though the dog thinks I'm nuts... As there is steak marinating in fridge.. Fresh from the garden cucumber and tomatoes sandwiches on toasted black bread... Am I only one that plants 4 extra plants in July to get fresh cucumber and tomatoes til October?
Fantastic looking dinner right there! I should have left weekend out of the thread title. I was hoping it would turn into a thread where we posted quick pics of dinners if we didn't want a whole thread for a quick meal. Post away anytime!
Yes. We took them over to the neighbors' to eat. She had a bowl of applesauce she had just made, and that's what I did with mine. They're wonderful people. I built a workbench in the garage today, and he was there most of the day to help. So I thought I should thank him. This is the second time I've cooked these. Because they are so lean, I was a little concerned that they would be dry, but this cooker does such a good job of keeping moisture in. About 1:45@350 got it to 155, wrapped them in foil and let them rest for about twenty minutes. Couldn't have been much better. I suppose being injected and vacuum packed helps a bit. I've figured out I have to take that into account when seasoning. It's easy to get too salty.
That's some good lookin pork Jeff. Speaking of pork, I just threw a 7lb shoulder on the smoker. Kind of a late start but with any luck I'll be able to have a pulled pork sammy before I go to bed.
Didn't have time to take a picture but I grilled steak burgers with A1 and provolone on them and sauteed mushrooms and onions to go on top...... It was fantastic
Holy smokes this stuff smells good!! Thick cut Bourbon marinated bacon from Sam's Club frying up in my large cast iron pan. Eggs will be fried shortly!
Ready and waiting. Still debating on cooking the big one longer or splitting it in half. Leaning towards the latter. It's a fat one.
Looks good! I with the spatchcocked like that I'm not sure cutting it in half will save you that much time? I am cooking Bourbon bacon wrapped chicken thighs tonight....
I can't make this crap up..... I am standing in the drive way grilling and 6 does, an 8 point buck, and a 4 point walk out of the woods and are eating acorns 25 yards from were I am standing. They were out there a good 25 minutes and didn't seem to care at all that I was taking photos.
