    WOW!  :o

     I can't say much else that hasn't already been said.  That was one fine cook.  I hope you shared it someone so they could enjoy the fruits of your labor.  I am now going to to have to find some beef belly so I can try out the burnt ends.  Living in Kansas City burnt ends are mainstay here.  I haven't been on here much lately and glad I checked out the forum today.  I look forward to you next cook and will be checking your website out more.

    hey @smokingal ! Long time no see. I remember you from back on that other forum we used to be on along with Craig. So you disappear on us and then come back swinging for the fences with this post? You sure knocked it out of the park. Simply amazing. Glad to have you back. I think everybody is going to need to step up their game now.

    @Dyal_SC @Griffin Hey guys, it's good to hear from you.  Good to see you are both still lurking around. It's been a minute but it's all coming back to me.  Got a freezer overfilled with meats, along with a list of new charcuterie, dinner and smoked dessert recipes to try out.

    @Ladeback69 Hey, I'm a fellow KCMO native myself.  Oh man, I just had a vision of mutton ribs from Gate's, a brisket sandwich from LC's, and burnt ends from Jack Stack.  Oh, the memories.

    @smokingal, where are you now?  I have never had the mutton ribs before.  I need to get in to LC's.  Zarda was the winner this year for the BBQ restaurant in town and I guess their Q has gotten better.  Q39 is my current favorite.

    @Ladeback69 I'm in Western Georgia.  I only ever bought ice cream from Zarda.  I don't remember them having BBQ, but it's been a very long time since I've stepped inside one.  Never heard of Q39.

    Q39 is one of the newer places to eat BBQ.  It is more upper scale restaurant, but still great food.  They have probably been around for the last 4 years or so.  Here is their website.   https://q39kc.com/

    I’ve just been browsing all your threads and they are all just incredible in every aspect. I keep going back to this corn”polenta” bread you’ve made a couple times. One question I had was how much sweet potatoe you used? And did you use an extra stick of butter(the smoked butter)

    @byrne092 I just used one potato and didn't measure.  It wasn't a big one.  I'd have to guess it was about one cup.

    @smokingal
    I missed this when it was originally posted. Looking at the time stamp I was offshore at the time. However, I have seen it now. What a great post and some spectacular looking grub. Simply a phenomenal job all the way around. If ever a post deserved the Double Seal Of Approval, it’s this one without question or doubt. Great job my friend.

    @SGH TYVM for your most gracious compliment.  Getting a chance to barbeque again after a 5 year hiatus had me going all out on that cook.  It's good to be back.

    That would be terrible not getting to Q for 5 years. 

    It's good to be back.
    It’s good to see you back and in action my friend. Keep it coming👍

    very nice cook!  I'm totally intrigued by the deviled eggs . . . never had them made with sour cream, any details would be greatly appreciated 
    Thank You

    @marysvilleksegghead There isn't too much to it.  I just substitute sour cream in lieu of mayo.  Honestly, leaving out the sweet relish is what makes the whole 'sour cream and chive' flavoring so noticable.  The flavor profile is quite different.
