TBS rolling over a pork butt - using Canadian Maple charcoal and a couple of cherry chunks. 

Dry brining a couple of prime Tri tips which will be seared later. 

Grandkids playing in the background - great start to the day.

    Those tri-tips are gorgeous. 
    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...
    "Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

    Agreed. For some reason the commissary on base has started carrying prime Tritips and prime NY Strips pretty regularly lately. 

    Have been buying a couple each time I’m there and putting in the freezer.

    Tritips just went on the MM after dry-brining for 6 hours or so.

    Agree that it’s a good charcoal. Very neutral and clean-burning.

    I think my favorite "food porn" pictures are just about always of rare or medium-rare beef or lamb.  Your tri-tips look gorgeous -- great job!

    I’ve found the basques sugar maple (green/white) Costco bag which I’ve liked previously has a ton of non carbonated pieces in it and isn’t burning as clean as previous years when I’ve stocked up 

    hopefully just some bad luck with the first two bags, otherwise I think I still have about 8 left in the garage lol
