tony b Posted June 2, 2019 Report Posted June 2, 2019 Thanks for the tip, MacKenzie - I'd never thought of using my chile rack for chicken legs either. Too bad that I didn't see your post in time for last night's cook! Chicken legs marinated and injected with Uncle Dougies, the thigh was rubbed with baking powder and salt and put into the fridge for several hours, then rubbed with Slap Yo Daddy rub, and finished with a homemade BBQ sauce. Cooked direct @ 350F with cherry wood chunks. Plated with some nice pasta in fresh basil and butter sauce, heavy black pepper and Pecorino Romano. And Yes, MacKenzie, I'm having a lot of fun cooking this weekend! Our weather has finally turned the corner after all that rain and storms. 5
MacKenzie Posted June 2, 2019 Report Posted June 2, 2019 Dinner is looking tasty, Tony and you are making me smile with the thoughts of what's in-store for me. 1
Pequod Posted June 2, 2019 Report Posted June 2, 2019 Nothing to see here. Move along. Just another perfect sourdough boule in my steam oven. 10
tony b Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 As promised, Bruce, today's rib cook. Indirect, 250F w/Guru, smoker pot with hickory and apple wood chunks. Ribs were rubbed with Sucklebuster's Baam! and Cimarron Doc's and stashed overnight in the fridge. Last 45 minutes, add the ear of corn. Sauced one end with the homemade BBQ sauce. While I've not been a big "sauce guy," this is growing on me. Plated with salad and crusty bread with a nice Rose. Corn was 24 hours older, so not quite as sweet as last night's cook, but still OK. 7

tekobo Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) It's midnight here. Shouldn't have hopped on to the forum at this time. All these beautiful pictures will see me gnawing on ribs in my dreams tonight. But first, I shall start with Aussie's wings and will mop up the juices with @Pequod's bread. Just how am I going to get to sleep now? Edited June 3, 2019 by tekobo 2 2

MacKenzie Posted June 5, 2019 Report Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) I picked up 3 bags of Lumber Jack pellets on Mon. and just now had a chance to try the Cherry. It is still burning after 2 hours on the first and only lighting. Works so much better than anything else I've tried. Picked up cherry, apple and hickory. Smoking some cheddar cheese using the cherry just to see how it goes. Thanks to everyone who recommended this brand. Cheese is just on the KK and reading to absorb some of that cherry smoke. After 2 hours of cherry smoke- There will be no tasting for weeks if not months while the smoke mellows. Just took the smoker and set it on the grill and closed up the KK. Later when the pellets are out I will clean it up. Edited June 5, 2019 by MacKenzie 7 1

Just how am I going to get to sleep now? Now look what you made me do. I was staying in an Airbnb when I wrote the message above and at about 1am I gave up the fight and got up to make myself a mid-night snack. Fried up some bacon and an egg and, in so doing, set off the smoke alarm. Turns out the alarm also rang in the main house and caused a panic until my host sleepily read my hasty message telling her to ignore my sneaky snack. No more midnight forum forays for me. 2 3

MacKenzie Posted June 6, 2019 Report Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) Bought a bag of shishito peppers from Costco the other day, new to me, and I'm liking them a lot. Haven't gotten the 1 in 10 that will set my mouth on fire yet but I'm sure I'll get it before the bag is empty. Edited June 6, 2019 by MacKenzie 1
jr.008 Posted June 6, 2019 Report Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) Hello Fellow KKers. A friend of mine gave me some bone-in smoked ham from his farm. I decided to add some low and slow. Best ham I ever had. https://www.everydaymaven.com/how-to-cook-a-smoked-ham/ I started with this guy's suggestions, made some changes with what I had on hand, smoker at 200F-225F, until ham internal barely hit 135F.
