    Thanks friend. But it’s not like your brisket is any slouch! The bark on that point.

    I love the results from brisket cooks, but the ceremony of the cook is truly half the fun on the rare occasions I make it.

    You guys are killing it. King's dinner and brisket for breakfast!
    That pretty much says it.  Good stuff @GrateEggspectations and @MasterC.

    The ladies made this on ATK last Saturday; sounded good and I've never worked with black cardamon before, so gave it a spin, Keema Aloo:
     

     
    Looks like a simple hamburger and potato dish, but it has 23 ingredients in it.  Very spicy (even after doubling the potatoes) but I'll be making it again.

    10 chunks this size. All disappeared before I could snap any other pics lol. The dish did not disappoint. Thai slaw and a simple pasta salad as sides

    The Hill AFB Commissary has had canned "wahoo" on the shelf for awhile now, and it's tasty and inexpensive; I've been playing with it in different dishes.  Didn't know what the fish looked like, so here's a pic; looks like a lean sporting fish.

    Nice! Keema is in regular rotation here, usually with goat, or lamb. Our version has peas in it. I'm curious to see what the ATK recipe is like. 

    For many Indian style recipes, some of the steps are not given due attention. Many recipes are improved by building a sofrito of sorts, before adding in the protein and other ingredients.

    3/4 tsp salt

    2 tsp ground coriander

    1/2 tsp tumeric

    1/2 tsp cumin

    Tried party ribs and caveman for the first time today. Steak was good, and so were the ribs. I realized i just prefer ribs cooked fast and no sauce. I prefer some chew I guess and just plain old Montreal steak on them. I will definitely do the steak again this way though.
    Your post is making me hungry. 

    Introduced a coworker to caveman cooks this week (spreading the gospel of @lousubcap) and she was blown away. She had done a T-bone and ribeye with excellent results. Definitely a fun cook!

    Glad caveman is getting the press.  Some great outcomes above.  Congrats to @poster and @BeanHead for giving it a go and the awesome results.

    I know it is the thing here, but even if I use it… I kinda hate calling it caveman when it is how I cooked for a couple years when I lived in a village in Morocco that didn’t have running water or electricity. It is honestly just open fire cooking and is the best way to grab flavor and kill bacteria.

    You have more run time with that technique than likely most of the rest of us here.  This place is free flowing so feel free use any descriptors as the exposure and cooking style is the objective.

    Thanks, didn’t mean to be a crab at you @lousubcap just reflecting on the meals I have had around the world with folks that only have fire to cook and how they would feel if I told them it was called caveman.

    Caveman cooking - Never tried it. How do you keep the ash off the meat?

    Nothing, I was suprised it doesn't stick to it at all. I had glowing red pieces and black under the meat, none of it stuck
