LC gave me a 7 qrt Lodge DO for xmas. This is the first time we have ever used a DO on "Ole Lady". First a quick call to the master of DO, Grandpas Grub. After some helpful tips, LC and I were off to the races. When she was 10 years old, an old Portuguese woman named Florence, showed her how to make this soup. (God rest her soul) Caldo Verde or Green Soup is made with fresh choirizo, linguica, and chuck roast. 2lbs of kale and lots of other stuff. We will be making this for the meet and greet in Ocala and will share the recipe after.
Get the egg up to 450 deg with spider.
Add the chuck to sear.
then the choirizo
add other secret stuff
2lbs of Kale
flip the spider with legs down and bring to simmer. Egg was kept at 300 deg. We kept the lid on for the first 45 minutes. Added some wiskey chips and let smoke for 30 minutes.
Covered for the last 30 minutes and then served.
Gee, what should I drink with this?
You guessed it...
LC had the Portuguese Shiraz....Go figure :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Hey there Tim looking real good, you will love cooking with the D.O. on the egg. There are some many things you can do with it. I cook a lot with mine.

Looks great...I can almost smell it
Will be looking forward to the recipe...After the "big-to-do" in Ocala. -
Oh man, I LOVE Portuguese food. I can think of no better meal to break in your dutch oven.
We need to find a way to attract a Portuguese migration to Chicago...at least enough to start a portuguese restaurant. I fell in love with Portuguese food on a vacation to the east coast, and immediately came back and tried to find a restaurant in Chi-town...no luck. It's also basically impossible to find a local source for chouriço, or even Spanish style chorizo. Plenty of Mexican syle chorizo, but no spanish or portuguese. Did find a local meat market that makes linguiça, but they were out last time I visited.
Very yummy looking, bubba tim! -
Wow, that sure looks good. It sounded pretty good when talking to you but after seeing the pictures...
I never thought of letting the DO "rest in" the spider. Did the DO remove easily or was there expansion/contraction between the spider/DO?
Congratulations to you and LC on a great looking cook, looking forward to seeing the recipe.

Hey GG - Sorry this response is so late in coming. I hope you see it.
Anyways, there was absolutely NO problem with the DO in the spider. No expansion/contraction, etc.... In the spider, the DO was about 1/2" off the coals, and got good and smokin hot for the sear. Since it was a soup we were making, we left the spider legs up. But, I imagine for more sensitive cooks (ie Paella, Jambalaya, etc) that the spider, flipped to legs down, then the DO resting in it, after the meat it seared would be just as effective.
Let us know if you try it, and how it goes for you!
