Well, howdy folks. Been a while, I've been away, busy workin' and such. Can't post or even lurk this forum from work, as the Taliban admin has us shut down - anything "gun related" is considered terrorist. lol
Anyways, today I'm gonna do a coupla racks of St. Louis-cut ribs on the smoker. Simple deal this time, just threw some kosher salt on 'em yesterday and they've been sittin' in the fridge. I was gonna do them yesterday, but I got sidetracked with this:
Sorry no pics before I cut it up, but it's about a 2 1/2 lb chuck roast I threw on the smoker for about 3 hours. Ended up about the flavor and texture of prime rib, but, being chuck was not as tender. Totally unseasoned, though, just "nekkid".
Then I browned it up and turned it into this:
Yes, yes, I know, I know... real Texas chili puritans will call me heretical. A few carrots and a few beans, blah blah. But I like it. It was good. A few hours in the pot and that chuck was as tender as anyone could wish for.
Today, I have this to start the festivities:
About 2 1/2 pounds there, pre-cooked weight. I have special plans for this little piggy later on today... stay tuned!
More pics of the ribs on the smoker coming up later, too.
Oh my God who else is glad winter is OVER?!?!?!?!?!?
