Kinda Korean Drumsticks
Between other weird things I’m trying to accomplish today I got some chicken legs marinading in 1/4 cup gochujang paste, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, two cloves of chopped garlic and a splash of fish sauce and lime juice. Just went on the XL with some space for veggies. Cooking at just under 300°F direct.

The End of an Era!
For all you Nor Cal Eggers…Eggs by the Bay is closing as @SMITTYtheSMOKER rides off in to the sunset! For me, this is where my love affair with the Bug Green Egg started. Thankful to be there next weekend for the Chili Cook-off and to celebrate Smitty’s upcoming retirement. 💚♨️💚

Pellet Thoughts
It's so easy, they say, about pellet grills. Ya gotta admit that the BGE takes time.....it's a process. I need you guys to talk me out of it.....and who has the best and most reliable pellet?

A once in a lifetime picture
Myself and SWMBO were getting set up to photograph the super moon. SWMBO looked through the viewfinder of her camera and was quick enough to capture this; We've been trying to get a shot like that for years. :)

Sciabbó
Sciabbó is an Italian dish I've never heard of, but it sounded interesting with a couple odd ingredients. Two lbs country-style pork ribs, dry-brined and grilled just long enough to get some color, then cooked overnight in the slow cooker with onion, tomato paste, 28 oz crushed tomato and 1.5 cups red wine; then this…

Deep dish pizza...
Morning All: Well, let's have a deep-dish pizza -- this one started with 8 oz of Mozzarella, then a jar of Alfredo sauce along with some of my BBQ sauce, next was about 12 oz of cooked ground beef plus two cups of pulled pork, then three slices of honey-maple ham (julienned), three slices of hard salami (julienned), a…

Friday night and the EggHead Forum option of the forum choices is eerie quiet- I need to get a life!
The title says it all. Chasing the end of the not so endless summer comes to mind. Guilty here as no BGE cook rolling tonight and playing with live fire Saturday. Surely Friday night shenanigans are on the horizon. Edit for fat finger correction.

Costco Brisket Question
I'm looking to do a brisket for the 4th of July. I'm a Sam's Club member and finding a Prime brisket is slim to none. They'll have Choice grade but pretty rare to find Prime available. I haven't been in a Costco for a few years. I remember reading that Costco was only carrying Choice a year or two ago during the pandemic.…

Sorta OT - Anthony Bourdain interviews Bob Kramer, knifemaker
I've not seen this before, and it's fantastic. Didn't realize he ran a one-man shop. https://youtu.be/4x0f2b_0kn0?si=2nl-ZxgGfrI5w9mB I was only familiar with the Kramer knives that are made by Zwilling under license, hadn't seen anything made by the man himself: https://kramerknives.com/product-category/latest-creations/…

What Are You Chef-ing Tonight, Dr?
I think it's going to be leftovers for us; and I feel the urge to bake some professional cookies using a recipe derived from the scientific method. Posted by (I'd have to look) on my cookie thread. Tasty Beverage: Dr Pepper

My First Time, Sous Vide
Grabbed a 1.1 lb. ribeye from the freezer, seasoned with SPG then sealed and into 130° water for three hours. Then seared each side in hot pan with butter. It was good but not great. Definitely missing something flavor wise that cooking over charcoal delivers (rendered fat vaporizing on the coals perhaps). Plus no thrill…

Long weekend barbecue
It’s a long weekend here in WA, the skies are blue and maximum temps are around 25c so it’s a perfect time to fire up the egg. On the menu - scallops in the shell, prawn skewers, dry aged steaks, lime dessert cake thing 😄 it was a learning experience controlling the temperature of the egg as the scallops and prawns were…
