    Pork Shoulders

    Smoked two pork shoulders last night. Just added a rub on tossed them on the WSM. Talk about easy. I started at 6:30 and checked about 12ish, ended up removing them at about 8:30 this morning, so they were on there for 14 hours. I pulled them off the smoker with a set of tongs and they just fell...

    Steak Roll Up

    The mix is chopped asparagus, chopped baby portabellas, minced garlic, salt & pepper sauteed in some olive oil to soften it up a bit. Usually I use flank steak sliced in half to make a long thin piece to roll up, but the local podunk grocery store didn't have any so I ended up with one of...

    Peanut Butter Burgers

    Anyone ever try these? I made some last night and they were absolutely amazing. I mixed up a sauce to put in the burgers. It was about 8 Tbsp of Sweet Baby Ray's (I really just squeezed a lot out...it looked like that much) and then garlic powder, onion powder, ground chipotle powder, thyme...

    Ordered a 22" WSM this afternoon.

    So I finally got around to it and after procrastinating on it for the longest time, I ordered myself a WSM. I've lately been doing the duties with a 22" Weber Silver kettle style grill and it's been OK for some jobs, it's really not the easiest thing I've ever used. I mean, I need something to...

    Home made hot sauce discussion.

    I came up with the idea to make hot sauce last week. I and a friend of mine made our first batch which turned out decent, but I want to make more and learn more about this amazing stuff. The first batch started by putting some oil in a pan and sautéing 3 habaneras and 7 cubanelles until they...

    Help with Gnocchi/seafood dinner menu.

    I'm going to try this one evening this week. I've got several recipes for Gnocchi, but the stipulation is seafood. I was thinking Gnocchi with crab in some type of sauce, but I really wanted a tomato sauce. How would crab go with this? Would it? Traditionally you see crab is cream sauces or in...

    My tuna feast from December.

    Lets just say, I haven't had tuna since.... MY neighbor works at a large hotel/conference center and he can get food for exceptionally cheap through them. He got a slab of sashimi grade tuna that was probably about 9lbs or so. I'm not up on the weight, but the length was about 16"-18" long...

    ISO Sea scallop recipe help

    I really like me some scallops and I wanted to try something but I don't know what I need to finish it off. I was thinking about Sea Scallops wrapped in bacon with the bacon brushed with a maple syrup and brown sugar mix and then searing the whole thing. I'm thinking I need a cherry on top...

    Ribs - Wet or Dry?

    I'm thinking about fixing ribs on Sunday. It sucks for me because my roommates and everyone one else that's bound to come over likes a ton of BBQ sopped on. I think good meat should not have it's flavor hidden, so I like dry ribs with a good rub for seasoning. How are you guys split? Am I a...

    MD - Baltimore ... "Charm City" eats?

    Granted I live in WV, but I do spend a lot of weekends here. So what's good? What's your favorites? What's the places worth staying away from unless it's 2AM and you need grease heaps? One of the only sushi places I've been too, and I like it because it's a great place just to hang out, is...

    Toidi Egalliv!

    Hi. I like to cook. Most of my friends are in the service industry and a lot of them work as cooks of some sort or another, so I'm graced with the presence of greater cullinary minds most of the time. Fortunately, this rubs off on a person. I have a blog that I use to post recipes that I come...

    Beer can chicken with mushrooms and asparagus

    My dinner last Tuesday, from my blog: Everyone has undoubtedly heard of this mythical beast. El Beercanachickacabra. The legendary easiest and bestest way to flip a bird. Any who, depending on your cooking temp, time will vary. I'm not good at providing exact times and temps to cook food with...
