Brought the MM home from the GA MTN Eggfest today.
Me: "so, what can we cook first on the MM."
Mrs. yolk, "to quote @piney 's wife, 'I need some vegetables, something green!'"
i can can do that. Grilled some veggies on the large then wrapped in some thin sliced top round heavy dose of PETA for seasoning. Bone in strip for the boys.
But desert!
when I came home with the stuff to make pineapple gems ala @EggObsessed and @NoJokeSmoke I literally got applause.
If if you haven't met Kelly and Bruce, get your a$$ to an Eggfest where they are STAT! Two of the nicest, most humble people you will ever meet.
pineapple gems: dried pineapple, wrapped in bacon, dusted with It's My Rub Power Blend, cooked indirect 325ish for 15 min, then glazed. Didn't have the recipe for their glaze so made something up. Sriracha, honey and bourbon glaze. THE BOMBDIGITY YO!

Here you go, Shane. People eating tasty animals. It's kinda salty, but not bad. Like it better on burgers than steak.Biggreenpharmacist said:Nice cook but whats "PETA" for seasoning?. Havent figured that one out. And everyone can just save the P.E.T.A. Jokes.

Doesn't look bad at all, Jason! Your problems. Was that the cause of not knowing the MM?------------------------------

How did u feel about temp control? I felt like it was slow and learning curve was needed out the gate. I've since swapped out the grate, still in process. Sometimes I still feel like getting up to temp is slow.Seattle, WA

@tarheelmatt @skinnyv since it's just us girls, I managed to snuff the fire completely. Definitely a learning curve here. I can put the large within a few degrees of where I want it easily most of the time. I fished out large chunks of used from the large. Thinking I need some smaller pieces to sustain the fire.
It it did seem slow to come up to temp, but that may be my fault. However, that bottom vent is small.... -
Very nice, that pineapple was to die for. I also brought home a MM from GA Mountain Eggfest. Cooked a ton of burgers on it last night and some PP tacos and little smokeys tonight. I was thinking it gets up to temp super fast. I also found it easy to get control of the temp and thought it must be due to its small size. But I've loaded it plum full of lump both nights. Sorry we missed each other @theyolksonyou
Fish, Hunt, Cook....anything else?

@ksmyrl I take total blame here. I'll load it up next time.
I really looked forward to meeting you guys. Next time...
it was was a great time and the folks I did meet were great. -
Sorry, to clarify that was "dried" pineapple? Looks good, just want to be sure I am looking for the right thing.Mt Elgin Ontario - just a Large.

Yep, dried pineapple. Usually in a plastic container. It seems to get reconstituted in the cook. It's money! Bruce and Kelly know what's up!gmac said:Sorry, to clarify that was "dried" pineapple? Looks good, just want to be sure I am looking for the right thing. -
I need to try those gems!Lg & MM BGE, Humphrey’s Battle Box | Palatine, Illinois
