Happy Labor Day Weekend! Whatcha cooking?

[AlphaPapa]

Gotta be a good ol’ southern boy with the “balled peanuts”. (I should’ve done some too but I was too busy watching football yesterday. My team got beat up…I should have smoked something and boiled peanuts too.)

You nailed it. Back when I was a kid you could always tell where my family sat at the high school football game. There would be a big pile of peanut shells under the bleachers.

Two racks of BBs, corn on the cob, coleslaw, and grilled asparagus...a little after dinner aperitif

Low and slow Pork Loin Ribs (Baby Backs), Rotisserie Garlic Chicken with apple doused veggies, smoked baked beans with skillet fried potatoes, Kings Hawaiian bread, and a few miscellaneous sides. Sorry for breaking the smoker rule but I needed extra capacity so I used the gasser for the chicken and the high temp stuff (potatoes and searing) on the cast iron. Now for the clean up. Ouch.

To prevent Acute Weekend Withdrawal Symptoms (AWWS), I took one for the team and did a nice outdoor breakfast cook. Don’t hate me cause I used the gasser. I used the time to do a heat, burn and clean on the Bull at the same time so it wouldn’t feel left out.

Did a high dollar brisket cook. It was good but compared to 3.99 lb Costco, I’m not sure it was worth almost 3 times the cost. The family thought it was good and ate it all up but I’ll go back to Costco next time.

Well, it certainly looks good; moist, great bark and a nice smoke ring. I was ready to rev up the Ferrari and head your way until you said “…the family ate it all up.” Just my luck; how about a little advance notice next time?

It all looks delicious.

Now I’m concerned there is a “smoker rule” that I was not previously aware of. . I have a Grilla Grills Primate as my gasser. I use it half the time with the plancha/flattop inserted for stir-frying, breakfasts, smash burgers, Philly cheese steaks, etc.
