Well, the board is pretty quiet considering the entire Egging world (outside of 48 members and 83 guests at this point) is in Hotlanta.

Thought I would find out what everyone is cooking. Me?

A co-worker brought me a variety of peppers from his garden this week - beauties!

I've been wanting to try a Jamaican Jerk recipe for awhile, and those habaneros were screaming for it. So I grabbed another firend's recipe and whipped up 2 chickens worth of wings, thighs and breasts and they've been marinating for 28 hours and counting.

Planning to go high direct high in the dome in the 275 range with hickory and apple wood for a couple hours, then crank things up to 350ish to crisp things up.

I'll post results and recipe later if it's any good.

So what are YOU cooking?

    Sirloin tri-tip tonight on medium BGE. We'll eat early enough to watch a 7:00 pm kick-off for a local team. :)

    Tomorrow is pot roast with potatoes, carrots, celery and turnip done in a broth of beef stock, red wine, and El Pato spicy tomato sauce. This will be done in a Lodge dutch oven on the medium BGE.

    During half-time this evening, I'll prepare bread dough to rise overnight and to go into the oven in an enamel cast iron dutch oven at about 10:00 am. I haven't decided exactly what kind of bread, but I'm leaning toward a mixture of 70% bread flour and 30% whole wheat flour with some chopped toasted pecans and some diced sun-dried tomatoes mixed in with the dough.

    Steaks and corn on the cob for tonight. How do you cook corn on the cob that has been taken out of the husk? :ohmy:

    Tomorrow I will cook a whole chicken for next week and then tomorrows dinner is salmon with corn on the cob again. I bought 5 ears at the local farmers market. It was cheap. ;)

    Grill Mama,
    I will do corn out of the husk wrapped in aluminum foil , along with butter/margarine and the spices of your choosing - personally I love a little JH Pecan or Slap Ya Mama! Good luck

    Only my 4th rib cook. Gonna go 3-1-1 with 3 of them, and try the fourth without foil just to see the difference. Dome's been solid 240 for 3 hrs. I think the trimmins are ready to snack on!
