Wait, they’re not boneless?  Is the bone all ground up with the other meat goop?

Wild turkey breast and pinwheel flank steak with smoked gruyere, sun dried tomatoes, and spinach.

Brined and sous vide the turkey before tossing it on the egg. Most tender wild turkey I have ever had.

Winding my weekend down with the Love of my life ........no idea how that lady got in the picture though

One last yakiniku meal in Haneda airport before leaving Tokyo. Wagyu of course

The meat is so fatty it won't take marinade. Gas grill here, the place I regular in Ginza is charcoal fired. Chuck steak and short ribs (small plate). Normal picture ordering issues apply..

PS - anyone know of a vertical charcoal spit for El Pastor? Asking for a friend. I've seen it in Mexico once, propane for kebab/pastor is much more common.

Very Cool! ( you can go horizontal pastor with charcoal )

@lkapigian - I can't successfully "quote" for whatever reason. Food and service are at high standards here, and it can be reasonably priced if you know where to look. If not, it's exorbitant in a hurry.

I agree the horizontal spit works, but not if I want to trim a layer of and keep rolling, with all the goodness dripping down

I saw one that was nothing more thann a 30 gallon drum split pole to pole with three racks for the coals and then an inverted rotisserie

Are you sure you’ve got enough Dijon?

That was a Düsseldorf style mustard, and I had four dogs.   Yeah I like mustard.

Did some pulled beef yesterday. These finished really fast. Put them on around 2 and they were over 200 around 7. Was expecting like 9-10 finish. Was running just over 250 might need to calibrate soon.

About to fire up the large and race the storms. Gonna reverse sear a tri-tip. My last dozen or so have been SV then seared.

Note to Lazy Self:
It is much easier to cut down a 3' sapling than to wait until its over 20' tall.  
 
Oof-dah.

Not looking good. You know it's going to hit temp right in the middle of this

Did a roast chicken in the MMX tonight with quite a lot of pecan chips. It was good, with roasted spuds (goose fat), carrots and gravy.

Just finished watching CNN's "Apollo 11" film, glad I also recorded it.

Odd bookends. I remember watching much of this footage on my folks' b-and-w TV, when I was 9, and getting pulled into the whole space/technology field. Ended up in the Air Force, and even worked for 2 years on the Space Shuttle boosters at Thiokol.

Yesterday, I got a letter from The Defense Finance and Accounting Service, telling me how much to pay to "buy back" my military time (adding it to my Civil Service time) in preparation for my retirement this coming Feb. Then, tonight, to see the Apollo footage that started this whole ball rolling, 50 years ago, again, really really odd feeling.

Almost like seeing, at the end of the sixth Star Wars film, the twin suns setting on Tatooine, bringing THAT 30-year period full-circle, except this time it was MY life.

Very, very odd feeling.

Eating my lunch at my desk which is a chunk of fresh raw tuna that was swimming less than 30 hours ago.  Truth being told, this is the 1/3 I still have to go.  The first 2/3 of it went down very fast.
