Yeah, I sort of wanted to drop my plan when I saw how many people were going with Asian influences. However, that recipe had been bookmarked for years. I usually use the challenges as motivation to try vooking projects I had "put on hold" I decided I wasn't going to be strategic about how to win, but to go with something I wanted to try like I always do.

I tried the peach rub as well. I love peaches so I thought I'd love adding it to pork or chicken dishes. Nope. It is definitely not for me. I should really throw it away before I get tempted to use it again,.

I have tried that and it does help a fair amount. However, it doesn't bother my stomach, it bothers my mouth.

Thank you! It was tasty!

I am aware- but I'm also aware of health risks of not being active. If I need to replace a joint when I'm old- I will definitely hate that and it will suck, but being inactive also has (more) negative consequences.

Thanks!

Yeah I am really wanting some of thst vinegar.

Today is my son's birthday and he requested burgers for the family dinner. I will be cooking 20 (thin, I already made them) patties. Normally I'd just be cooking for 4 so I would do it on the lower grate. I'm just curious of this would be a cook that would be better to do multiple rounds on the lower grate or if I could do it all at once on the main grate?

I hate cowboy. Royal oak is alright. My preferred lump is char broil center cut or black diamond. I try to get it on clearance or I order enough boxes to not have to pay shopping from their website.

Thank you. I actually ran a marathon in 2010 and a half in 2012. I have been running at least 6 miles two times a week since about september and then slowly upped one run to be longer. The last month or so Ihave been doing one 12 mile and one 6 mile per week. Its my alone time. And thank you! Wish I could have shared!

There have been a lot of delicious looking salads submitted, but this has been a salad on my to do list for well over a year. Thai style beef salad. Very healthy and just what I was craving after my 12 mile run on Saturday. I started by lighting the kamado because this is a pretty quick cook, at least as far as challenge cooks go. First I got the ingredients for the dressing. Fairly simple and shockingly no oil! First time I have ever made a salad dressing without oil. Also, half of the dressing is used to dress the meat specifically after it is cooked and sliced, which made the meat over the top flavorful. Whisked that together and set it aside. Then I assembled the rest of the salad ingredients. Chopped up most of the ingredients, tore the living butter lettuce (I love thst lettuce) sliced the red onion a pickled them a bit because I have an issue with completely raw onion. Checked the grill and yup, it was ready. Seasoned my flank steak with some salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne. Adhered with some sesame oil. Grilled fairly hot and fast until it hit 127 let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Then assembled it all and poured the remaining dressing on top This was really, really good. My husband completely scarfed it down. I'd definitely make it again.

That is the SRF rack

Yeah you are the salad master. You better be in it!

I think this entry will do well. Its one of those dinner salads thst is truly satisfying.

They were a gift so I didnt know until just now- it looks like around $30 a rack.

the other ones were definitely still good

Yes, I absolutely believe I can taste the difference. You can really see a difference in the coloring as well!

Thank you! It was awesome and fun!

Still working on some meats the hubby got me for Christmas. Thawed out a slab of SRF kurobuta ribs and decided to put them up against some garden variety St Louis ribs for a side by side taste comparison. All on the grill (SRF we're smaller so they went on about an hour and a half later) Regular St Louis done SRF done Sliced up and side by side. SRF kurobuta is closest to the camera My whole plate (BTW I love instant pot beans) So unanimously people preferred the SRF ribs. It may have been biased since there was no way to make it a blind taste test since one rack was much smaller than the others. I really felt that they tasted "meatier" and the grocery store stuff was just much more mild.

I've never had roo. I can't even begin to imagine what it tastes like.

Dang. I need to make some truffle friends.

Sounds like you are down for adventure

Awesome looking ribs

Nice!

This is one of those cooks I know I'll never do but I'm am fascinated by
