@caliking - You have trained him well and he seized the opportunity to enjoy a b'day banquet. Great cook across the board.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood.

That is certainly a meal for a prince. Way to use your arsenal.caliking said:Caliprince asked for some of his favs for his birthday dinner… ratatouille, Vietnamese/Thanh Long-style garlic noodles, grilled King crab, AND prime rib.The KBQ got the call for the prime rib. He asked for the crab to be done on the Simpsons Weber kettle.


Seems like I forgot to grab a pic of the ratatouille. And, a plated shot. Oh well.It all apparently turned out to our little dictator’s liking. He had a good day, and that made us happy.Large and Small BGECentral, IL -

@caliking with just one bday dinner request, Caliprince has shown that I have squandered years of birthday requests. He birthdays better than I do.
and nicely executed.THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -
Thanks. I initially said no for the prime rib, but then gave in. Good thing I did, because it was the best item on the plate.Legume said:@caliking with just one bday dinner request, Caliprince has shown that I have squandered years of birthday requests. He birthdays better than I do.

Next year, you should first totally fake him out with some KD. Then reveal the banquet.caliking said:

@caliking what a feast! Now that you’ve set the bar so high, the royal prince is going to expect nothing less for future birthdays

Ribs were done sous vide, for 48 hrs. Then you pull the bones out and fry them.lousubcap said:Great plate-Even into the stylin...

@Canugghead - Thanks! Yes, he is indeed spoiled. But, I'd rather have it this way vs. stuffing him full of fast food regularly.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -
That’s the Momofuku recipe. I’ve done short ribs on the BGE and they are great, but they just do not turn out with the same level of tenderness as what results from a 48 hour swim.lousubcap said:Thanks and the call of the SV is strong but...

St Louis ribs on the OJ Bronco. Much better smoke profile than the BGE, and super easy temp control!

Story on last night's dinner: My buddy Chris has been catching tons of Pompano lately and wanted to cook some with a new recipe he really likes. We were going to do it at our house but his neighbors backed out and it would mean I would have to clean a bunch of printers/vinyl cutter and the lot off the dining room table. So he suggested bringing all the stuff to our friend Dave's house (he's the artist who works out of my shop, his wife is SWMBO's best friend from kindergarden on). So we all pitched in on sides and met over there. They have a mansion-like house on Prytania in uptown and they brought some Dong Phuong king cake (hands down the best in town - @buzd504 probably will agree). Anyway, the girls got to catch up and we played pool. The pie was onion.

@lousubcap - over the years they got chipped up to the point that I had one decent plate left. We moved twice in 2021 and the final move resulted in chipping the last chip free diamond plate. We bought new and passed on the other 7 diamonds to my daughter. It was a sad day but after a few counselor visits I’m slowing moving forward from this life changing event.lousubcap said:@Mattman3969 - great looking eats but what happened to the award winning diamond plate??-----------------------------------------analyze adapt overcome2008 -Large BGE. 2013- Small BGE and 2015 - Mini.

@Mattman3969 - Sorry to read that. I'm sure much more traumatic than you are letting on. Way to get after the counselor visits to help guide you forward. Gonna take some time for me to get past the anticipation of seeing a post from you and no ♢plate.

You really never get over your first plate. New ones will come into your life, but they just aren't the same.lousubcap said:@Mattman3969 - Sorry to read that.
