That 8:15 AM pork butt cook turned into a marathon cook, just shortly after 4 AM I pulled it off the KK. You know what comes next I had to pull and sample it was 5 AM when I got to bed.

The start up.

Ready to pull.

It was moist. I was afraid it would be dry after that 20 hour cook. The first 170 F was at 225 F then I moved it to 235 F.

Happy St. Pat's Day, ya'll! Having to celebrate at home though, as the local government asked the bars to stay closed today.  

A nice corned beef sandwich (not homemade) with a good Irish Ale!

Sláinte!

I put my pulled pork to use to make a sandwich for lunch. I wish I had a Guinness.

Rainy today, so probably no grilling out tonight, but I did get to last evening. Chicken Shawarma on the menu. Chicken was pre-marinated from Trader Joes. On a 325F grill, direct, with cherry wood chunk. 

Plated up with a cuke & red pepper relish and tahini sauce, Bibb lettuce for the wrap, and a side of curry rice.

You are a healthy consumer, very nice and a white to compliment I see.  Looks like deck weather might be making a comeback.

Chicken cook tonight. Seasoned with Trader Joe’s Chili Lime seasoning.

Made a new to me recipe for mushroom soup today and it is a winner. The only connection to the KK is that I used chicken stock with the bones of a grilled chicken.

I consider this recipe to be a winner. Found the recipe here -

Oh Mac.......that hurts!  I love mushroom soup and Redhead Sue is deathly allergic to mushrooms 😬.   Man O Man - Woman O Woman..............does that ever look good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where you guys findin those chickens?

Nice looking soup, MacKenzie. Checked out the recipe - wholeheartedly endorse the dried porcini mushrooms (I have the powdered version in my pantry for an extra boost of umami), but they left out one of my secret ingredients - finely chopped celery. It adds a bit of texture to all the soft and creaminess of the rest of the ingredients - that je ne sais quoi! 

[MacKenzie]

Thanks for the celery tip, Tony.

[tony b]

You're welcome!

Friday dinner on the KK -fire in the middle and sides on the sides -yum.   Ready for the weekend, but the Georgia spring pollen effect is in full swing - the blue pebbles are going to be yellow/green by the end of next week.

Pizza night.

Great pizza, I bet that board would have a story if it could talk, unique.

Lazy Sunday afternoon roast leg of lamb boned out.

I had it marinating in a dry coffee cumin rub for 10 days in vac bag.
Heated up KK to about 300f, put the lamb on the top shelf and cooked it direct. Flipped it once.
Pretty happy with the thickness variation of this cut. Could have tied it, but the wife like medium to well, and I prefer the medium rare. We had pieces of each.
Had spuds on the main grate underneath getting all oiled up, and lemons for the last 40 mins around the edges.
Rested on a bed of chopped kale, spinach and basil.
Yes it was a cracking day, clear and 91f. Having a never ending summer this year.
