Pork Butt Mike

Whats the Most Challenging Cook You Ever Attempted and came out so good you surprised yourself and your family or friends. Please use pictures.

I would have to say Mad Max Turkey, For the first time and now do it all the time and love it. Not that hard now.





Also a family recipe, we call it meat pies. Classic name, lol.

PBM,
Hands down--Boneless stuffed wings. It is baaaaarutal deboning a wing while leaving it intack. These were stuffed with penne. Nice presentation, unlimitied variations, tough work. Scott

I can spell intact. I really can.

I don't have pictures for this (sorry), but the most challenging "cook" I've ever done was a "bring your own meat" party for about 50 people. I had three Eggs going and people would just bring me something to cook - it was almost like being a short order cook. I think I cooked over 10 different types of food that night - CRAZY!! Not sure I'll ever do that again, but it was fun.

Is there a prize??

Yes, stike I found yet another opportunity.. You'll get over it..

SoCalWJS

Very impressive! - I wouldn't even try it, 'coz I'd completely destroy those wings trying to get dem bones out. :laugh:

stike

paella while drinking.

other than that, a wellington for christmas dinner wasn't complicated, just took me all day

Fidel

You mean this work of art?



I just wish I had a better camera to capture the true essence of it all.

Clay Q

Well most challenging?...I guess I have two. Sourdough bread, making the starter from scratch and the baking setups, all a big learning curve. And the other was learning to bbq pulled beef and then getting a recipe down that worked well for the egg. A lot of work but a labor of love. :woohoo:

stike

you knob. wasn'tr very drunk, either. two or three beers. hahaha

i was just distracted by the intelligent conversation.

soup, this one was campbells wedding soup from a can. very time consuming more than anything





this one was a homemade bisque, that bread took all day with several rises

GaryBushey

If you do that again, let me know. I live up in Cary and would be more than willing to help.

Grand Oeuf Vert

This things been cooking since March! And it still ain't done...

How much longer until it breaks through the plateau?

Boilermaker Ben

hee hee...I think Mainegg made a couple of those last night.

Egg-N-Tino

That looks absolutely AWESOME Max. WOW. Always wanted to do a Turducken, but the better half always turns her nose up. Might be able to pull it off, if I can get her to look at those pictures.

Pork Butt Mike

Hey Pete that is great and the prize is being able to do such a good thing and use your Eggs. When all done you can go home and feel real good about your self, I don't believe there is a better prize then that.

Pork Butt Mike

Some amazing cooks I see you all done here, something for some of us to think about and try in the future. Thanks Everyone.

"Sparky"

I think that the most challenging cook for me was with "The Wolf" at Ft. Bragg :ohmy: We had 24 butts going on 4 eggs,and they all had to be done,"at serving time" :ohmy: It was a ton of fun though(for me anyway) Thanks for reposting that link Pete,I lost it when my pooter crashed and burned :pinch: Here's a few more pics





Here's Pete workin the taters on my XL(and talkin to the crowd) :P





We all froze our a$$es off,but it was well worth it....really







Sorry for too many pics,but this was a very rewarding experience for me

CBBQ

Pete's got one next week and at the end of August.

Mainegg

"Sparky"

Yea,I heard that,thanks I'm doing my best to get back and do another cook with Pete

CBBQ

Bill in St Louis

Panhandle Smoker

An easy cook but a lot of pressure and logistics to over come which made it challenging. A 12 Boston Butt's for 250-300 people for a friends funeral reception. 7 on the XL and 5 on the Large

stike

there are a few chefs on boards here that never post their stuff, and folks either givin' out awards or reminding us of theirs.

where are their over-the-top cooks?

let's go you self-proclaimed pros. let's see it.
