Majestik Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Well well... Thanks again to Gerard for getting me going on the ABTs. And you know what Gerard? The bacon-wrapped watermelon rind... I had only made that one time... that one time long ago when I posted it originally. So your talking about it meant I had to try it again. Result? Suh-weeet! It was hard to find... I was starting to despair... even considering trying dates (which makes your recent post about dates/ricotta in bacon &pepper all the more intriguing). Fortunately Harris-Teeter came through and I picked up a couple jars o' rind. Kids loved them! But the ABTs.... oh man, they are the shiznit around here these days. This time I rolled them in my fine dry rub-- hallelujah! Remember I said I could make a meal of those things? This time I did. I cooked them hotter and faster this time @ ~350F for 75 minutes, indirect. They were even better - crispy, sweet, hot... magnificent! Those are a few of the 'rinds in front. Ah, yes. Life is good. --Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curly Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 I think I'll go hotter next time. That dark look is better than the look I had on my slower cook. Although mine were plenty good, I still want to try that LOOK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
