    Greensboro NC, temps are going to be sunny in the mid 60's.. So I am planning all my cooks... Saturday: Prime rib roast, sides to be determined.. Sunday: Baby back pork ribs, Kielbasa's wrapped in bacon, Thick cut slices of belly pork rashers, maybe some slaw and a salad.. The only down time for my Egg will be for adding lump.. Everyone have a fantastic weekend..

    Thinking I'll run to the processor and grab some steaks for tonight. If I'm lucky they'll have some beef ribs that will be consumed Sunday. Maybe oysters for Saturday if I can find em.

    Thanks for the feeling of not have my **** together.  I hadn't thought about what to cook at all yet.  

    F it... 

    I'm going to John Mitchell's house.  I'll bring the maters.

    It's how I pass the day at work. I look like I'm thinking, so they think I'm productive

    Great catch!  I didn't even pay attention to that and thought it was funny.  

    Guess us internet folks do know what it is.

    Just picked up some brewers yeast from the brew supply store for tomorrow mornings "brew-off".  Starts at 8AM - we make 50 gallons of beer (one big batch) - an IPA.  I'll be taking home 5 gallons to ferment and drink.

    Also there will be bbq.

    I've had Snarky Puppy's newest CD/DVD since it came out, finally watching the video portion now:

    Anyone here know what that stringed instrument is in the Intro (looks like a hurdy-gurdy but is bowed)?  And I'm falling in love with Becca Stevens!  :heart: 
    Killer recording!

    Sous Vide fail.  Family is used to shoe leather pork.  Did some monster chops in the Sous Vide at 142 for 3 hours, then seared on the MM.  Texture was to mushy for the fam.  They were not convinced it was cooked.  Was going to submit for the competition, but decided not to compete with a fail.  Will do 146 next time.

    Put them on the MM and turned into over done chewey pork and the fam gave their nod of approval.  :bawling: 

    Have to be careful though, with new toys you have to hit nail the first cooks or the people will revolt!

    I gotta admit, it took me a while to get used to the "extra-juicy" cheekun from the Egg, and pork butt is still iffy for me.

    Just prepped a butt. Trying Plowboys Yardbird on a butt for the first time. I loaded up when Wegmans had them on sale. Been awhile since I've egged a butt.



    From the looks of that pic, I need to hit a few spots when it goes on.
