Double cut pork chops, DP tsunami spin, baked potatoes, moon shot
In today's episode of how much can you get into a Minimax, reverse seared double cut pork chops and jacket/baked potatoes, cooked outside next to a roaring fire in our chiminea.
The chops had Dizzy Pig "Tsunami Spin" rub, possibly our favourite simple meat/rub combo. Potatoes to IT 160F on the
lower level before transferring to upper level and adding the pork
chops. This meant the potatoes were at IT 200F when the pork chops hit
IT 145F. Potatoes transferred to warming oven with plates, pork chops
seared. Then dinner whilst photographing the moon.

Moon shot, nice crater definition:

Those pork chops look delicious.Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

Thanks folks.
@milesvdustin the chops were nearly 2 inches thick, top skin and fat trimmed off. Our butcher cuts them specially for us. Really tasty.

Looks awesome!
The peas on the potato made me spit my water out laughing. When I was a kid my neighbor's mom used to make green peas with literally every meal at 5pm sharp (she was a weird bird)
Because I was always just eating quickly to get back outside before dark, I would dump them on top of whatever she was serving just to get them down. Spaghetti, loaded potatoes, chili, casserole...it use to piss her off to no end."Brought to you by bourbon, bacon, and a series of questionable life decisions."
