    YB,[p]I'm throwing some chicken thighs with Emeril's Southwest Essence on indirect over hickory wood shortly. That game sounds great tonight. I think Oklahoma is on, too, against a good team. I'm watching USC start to run away with their game against Oregon state now.[p]Great college football day today, and an amazing pro day tomorrow. My couch will be clapping tomorrow night when I finally get my butt up off it![p]Enjoy the game and the grub,
    Cornfed[p]PS - Oregon State scores with 6 seconds left in the first half. 28-14 USC. May need to watch the second half!

  • YB,
    Humpty is getting the night off, but we're making stock from the turkey breast left over from Thanksgiving for a turkey pot-pie for tomorrow. Otherwise, we're heating up some of the left over pork roast from Humpty from Thursday for open faced sandwiches and using all the amazing quantity of juices for gravy! Hmm, maybe it IS a BGE night after all -- grin![p]Kelly

  • YB,[p]Momma Lorraine is making chicken and aundouville gumbo but that’s not the good news. When she sent me to the store this morning to get her the chicken and oysters I noticed they had Boston Butt on sale 79 cents a pound. Picked up one and made it all the way to the checkout counter and started to think about my GOOD fiends. Went back and picked up another Boston Butt for them. Both the butts are on the pit as "we speak" and should be ready to head into the ice chest around 5 in the morning. Chicken and aundouville gumbo for the LSU game and pulled pork for the Saints game. Ain't life great![p]Marty

  • YB,
    Like Kelly, not Egging tonight. Doing a real easy garlic/shrimp pasta. I usually add more garlic and some pepper flakes to spice it up.[p]Garlic Shrimp And Shells
    Recipe Courtesy Of Maggiano's Little Italy
    ¼ lb. medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
    2 cloves fresh garlic, peeled and fine chopped
    2 turns of the mill fresh ground black pepper
    2 ounces extra virgin olive oil
    1 c. fresh tomatoes, peeled,seeded and chopped
    ¼ c. white wine
    ½ cup clam juice
    ¼ c. prepared marinara sauce
    1 tbsp garlic butter
    3 leaves fresh basil leaves, torn
    8 ozs. cooked shell pasta
    Salt and pepper to taste Plating procedure: [p]1. Peel and de-vein the shrimp and marinate with half of the chopped garlic, half of the olive oil, and the ground black pepper. Prepare the tomatoes by blanching in boiling water for 30 seconds and then peel. Squeeze the seeds out and rough chop. [p]2. In a hot sautè pan on high heat place the shrimp with the remaining olive oil. Sautè briefly until the shrimp turns pink on one side. Add the remaining garlic and sautè for a moment to coat the shrimp. Add the white wine, clam juice, and tomatoes to the pan and bring back to a boil, reduce to a simmer and add the marinara sauce, basil, and garlic butter. Add the shell pasta and simmer for a couple minutes. Check the sauce for flavor and add salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately in a hot pasta bowl.

  • YB,[p]Too cold to use the egg where I am. Temp is 18 and wind chill is 10. But I did do Sweet Potato Slices baked with Dizzy Pig Ragin River Rub and drizzled with melted butter as a side dish to some other un-egged food and it was too good for words. Can't wait for the temp to skyrocket to 35...that's what I call acceptable for cooking on the Egg.

  • chuckls,[p]Take the wings, snip the tips off, run in Olive Oil, and dust with Dizzy Pig's Tsunami Spin or Jamaican Firewalk.[p]Cook Direct, turning frequently at 325 for about an hour.[p]Great wings! Even better with beer! Perfect compliment to my first ABT's in over 4 weeks! I'm glad I have left overs![p]

    Cheers,

    <p />YB,
    Tonight I roasted another batch of alomonds. Plum smoked and coated with Dizzy Pigs Swamp Venom.[p]These are being sent to Nature Boy. We'll see if he survives the experience! Swamp Venom adds a kick indeed and I think they turn out pretty good.[p]~Boccie

    Boccie,
    That was a great documentary of the whole cook, and they look AWESOME....gotta put that on the have to try list[p]Wess

  • Pulled at 118, let sit for at least 25 minutes, worked on a reduction sauce but did not finish it, used water and some Oregon Pino to Deglaz the pan but decided to have dinner without the sauce since it seemed to take a little longer than I was willing to wait. In the refer now, will pull the fat off and use it for the leftovers on Sunday. The bone in was one of the best I have done. My polder was reading 108 but my thermo pen was saying 118. I believe the therom pen. Nailed it, my rare loving wife said it was one of the best ever.

    YB,
    Yesterday, did a meatloaf on the egg - most eggcelent! In the house, I made some chili from egg-smoked pork loin that I cut into cubes. Had to make cornbread to go with that. Made cookies for a party my wife is attending today. Today, alas, no time to egg anything. I am hoping to get a Lodge cast iron Dutch oven for Christmas so I can make the chili even better.
