Saturday's Cook

Had quite a busy day Saturday. Started off making some home-made Jimmy Dean style Breakfast links (5lbs)

image

Then 5lbs of cheddar brats

image

Threw on 2 racks of ribs. One with Dizzy Pig, one 50/50 salt and pepper

image

Some ABTs

image

Some Corn

image

Wasn't planning on cooking the brats, but more people ended up coming so I had to add extra protein (and I was a bit curious)

image

We also cooked up some of our venison jalapeno cheese sausage. Unfortunately these were the last of my pics. I was so busy, I never stopped to eat all day, and then the bourbon started flowing and I sort of forgot to take any finished pics. From what I do remember, I wasn't a big fan of the salt and pepper ribs. Sure, it works for brisket, but I think pork really benefits from some sweet and heat. Everything got devoured and for once, there were hardly any leftovers. Good night, but I was exhausted by the end.

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    I took the day off and had Whataburger. I put Mrs. G on a plane to Atlanta and didn't feel like cooking for myself.

    Great looking grub, as usual, Grif.  I love the potato probe holder.  :)

    You were a busy man Saturday! Everything looks great.

    How did the S&P ribs turn out vs the Dizzy Pig?

    I lost the original clip thingee. Not sure where, but I'm pretty sure bourbon was involved.

    Dizzy Pig won hands down. I think ribs (and pork) benefit from a little sweet and heat. They were ok, just kind of bland. Oh, forgot to mention, I used peach wood for the cook. First for me.

    That is definitely a busy Saturday!  It all looks great.  Homemade cheddar brats...nuff said! 

    I will be looking forward to your entry in the next throwdown ;)


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    @SmokeyPitt - I'll try and come up with something that won't disappoint. Can I just make another pineapple upside down cake? Nobody's seen that ever. ;)

    @SkinnyV there's a sense of pride in doing it yourself. Don't know how hard it is with a KA, but a vertical stuffer is worth the money over using a grinder to stuff.
