    Goulash for tea tonight. The chuck was seasoned with salt, pepper and Baharat spice mix (paprika based). In the MMX for around 4 hours on low with cherry chips, cut in 2 so as to increase the bark. Pulled out and cut into chunks. Peppers and onions fried, meat, beef stock and tomato puree added, plus a bit more paprika. Brought to the boil then 2 hours in the oven, the last hour uncovered. Served with rice.












    My mouth is watering just reading all that!

    Anyone have a Cinco de Mayo plan for today?


    I’ve got a flank steak I’ve been marinating all afternoon in some EVOO and DP Mole rub. Plan is to have some tacos when the better half and little one get home. Til then I’ve got some chips and street corn dip/salsa I’m going to munch on while I have a few crevezas and cigar. Also, probably going to have to make her and myself a margarita when she gets home 😁

    I'm new to the forum, but I've been Egging on my XL for a while.  Thanks for all of the great ideas during the lock-down and thanks for looking.
    Cheers!

    Here are a few of my recent cooks:

    Chicken Kebabs with grilled vegetables, jasmine rice, tzatziki and spicy yogurt sauce.




    Smoked Moroccan chicken. I missed the plating with couscous and mint yogurt sauce.


    Pepperoni, sausage and mushroom pizza.


    Ribeye caps, brussels sprouts, sautéed mushrooms and angel hair pasta.




    Not egged but still very good...  chicken piccata, asparagus and buttered brown rice with garlic and parmesan cheese.



    Welcome to the party!  Great forum handle, you'll fit right in here!

    @bourbonbuddy- Welcome aboard and enjoy the journey.  Above all, have fun.  Strong into right there.  Great cooks.
    Your handle is a winner.  Back-story?

  • Thanks for the encouragement!!!.  @lousubcap I grew up in Kentucky, have a love of bourbon and a strong history of getting my friends to enjoy bourbon (after they proclaimed they didn't really like whiskey or whisky)... Additionally, like a good southerner my nickname is Buddy.  I'm excited to hear more about this crews' favorites.

    Thanks Cap, but it's not me, It's my. church "CrossLife of Spencer".  We only did the ribs and beans, others did the rest.

  • East meets South. Brisket stir fry. 

    Was worried my leftover brisket’s spoilage clock was ticking, so raided the pantry and fridge for odds and ends to make a stir fry. Oddities included the hickory-smoked brisket itself (the smoke ring is a dead giveaway!), grapefruit San Pellegrino drink in the sauce instead of orange juice, and years old egg noodles instead of rice. If you can believe it, the smokey brisket worked fantastically in the dish.

    @GrateEggspectations - brisket will enhance any banquet.  Great looking cook right there.  Congrats.

    I am going to try my best shot at peach preserve Boston butt. It will be my new larges first cook. Unfortunately it will have a very short brining time. I want it to be finishing up about the time my nephew shows up to pick up my old medium. That means an overnight cook and maybe 3 or 4 hours brining time. The brine is heating up now. Had to guess about the quantities since my kitchen scale is kaput.

    Going to have to wait until morning to put that peach butt on. I can smoke in the rain but I can’t load up Big Bertha and get her lit in the rain.

    Went freezer diving. Found some gifts from a few years ago from Omaha Steaks. Burgers, twice-baked potatoes, caramel apple crisps. All cooked on the egg. They all stood up pretty well despite their long time being frozen. And SWMBO made margaritas. It’s a perfect evening to eat outside here in South Texas.  Happy Friday everyone. 
    Me and the eldest (Caitriona) had Margaritas last night. Followed by Mohitos. No hangover either! Anne was detoxing from the previous evening.
