    Way to source from Oak Barn.  Those look great.

    Thanks for the reminder I need to do some beef ribs asap! IMO there is no better smoked meat cut.

    Doc said I was PHAT this morning. I didn’t realize that was still a saying in 2024. No way he could’ve meant fat. 

    Tonight’s fried poke chops to celebrate such a great compliment. 😜


    That'll show him! 

    Fried poke chops scream to be smothered in gravy.

    Sausage (tandooriwurst)  from a freezer dive, with peppers and onions. Didn't suck.



    Nice Sausages!

    Nice cook, but those skewers are brilliant. Perfect for vertical roasting in the BGE. Did you buy those, or have them custom made?

    Re: an arrestor thingamajig, a couple of turns of  wire would do the trick. But... a small potato at the end would be moar delicious! When I'd do tandoori chicken in the tandoor, those potatoes at the end of the skewer would be fought over. 

    And, a very happy birthday to your obviously better half.

    One fell off on to the grate,  so learning point for next time is to add an arrester devise to the bottom of the skewer.
    Lots of coarse salt and little SPG. 
    The one in the image stayed not he skewer and the texture was remarkably different.

    First attempt at salmon on a plank scheduled for tomorrow as it is SWMBO's birthday. 
    Happy birthday to your swmbo.

    Great cook and love the skewers, did you buy it or hack it out of a regular V shaped one? I'm thinking of splitting the end with an angle grinder cutting wheel and bending to form the T handle. I may try one for tandoori.

    Also agree with using potato (or onion) at the bottom, a stainless steel cotter pin should work well as an arrestor.

    Here's where the skewers are from https://pitbarrelcooker.com/collections/hanging-accessories 

    They were a gift from SWMBO as we plan to do tandoori chicken pieces soon.  She also got me the long flexible wire skewers for some Chermoula marinated vegetables last Summer.

    Will try various arresting methods and update you in due course.  👍

    Cold, rainy & miserable day today, then Chef John gives me a recipe for Caldo Verde!
     

     
    Pretty simple soup; onion, garlic, sausage, thin-sliced russets and chopped kale, bone broth and salt (I did add black pepper too).  Cook it until the potatoes break down and thicken.  It's Portuguese, supposed to have Linguiça but none at the market so used mild Italian sausage instead.  Perfect for a cold February day.            Grew up with that soup, broth from pork bones, my nana added   yellow eye beans or northern whites. Always served with scali bread and butter....

    Thanks for the link. I have 4' skewers for the tandoor, but they are cumbersome for down-the-top-vent BGE cooking. I'll look into these.

    Your in-laws rock and that is a consistent theme.  Looks fantastic.

    I would post this on a stand-alone, but it would feel disingenuous given my minimal contribution. Delivered by in-laws for us to heat here. 


    That looks great, but your logic confuses me.  Why would it feel disingenuous in a stand-alone but not a “what are YOU cheffing now” thread?

    They are not kidding about that warning.  About 25 years ago I put a few into a toaster oven and they melted, poured on the heating element, and caught on fire.  Almost burned an apartment complex down.

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

    You make pretty pies, @Canugghead. Rather spectacular. Love the colours popping in photo #1.

    TIL taco shells melt. Sounds like a very close call.
