Yes indeed, that looks delicious!

I set up my kk 42 SBB with a full firebox. Wood chunks in the bottom, charcoal on top. Foil over the bottom grate (except edges). 2 drip pans underneath. So I had both foil and pans as deflector. I started out by lighting the left side of the firebox with the thermoworks billows on the right side. The grill was a perfect 225 both at grate and dome. Brisket is pictured here both raw and just before wrapping in butcher paper. I had a lot going on yesterday so I didn’t take pictures of the briskets wrapped, being unwrapped, or after slicing but, basically, this was a perfect cook. The brisket was great. Briskets went on at 4am. Wrapped at 1245pm. Raised kk temp to 255 after wrapping. Briskets came off at about 445pm. Dinner at 630. Pretty much perfect timing. The picture of the empty grill and bottom grate is to show that the charcoal burned just like I hoped it would, perfectly from left to right. I grilled some veggies on the right side before dinner.

Been pretty slow around here which is understandable given the weather in the US. My family got COVID, 4 year old brought it home from school but we’re back on the mend and I did one of my regular cooks. Grilled chicken breast cooked indirect 350 with mesquite wood. Rubbed with Chicken Shit rub. 
 

im always amazed at how great chicken breast comes out on the KK. I always “overcook” it an extra 10-15 minutes vs what I used to do on a gas grill and the KK chicken breast always comes out super juicy and moist. Mix that chicken with some Caesar salad mix from trade joes. Toast some pita and combine east l, healthy meal 

save extra chicken breast for use tomorrow 

 

I know you all have been cold, we hit 39 this morning but then leveled out at 78 for most of the day. High 70s/low 80s on tap for rest of the week

That food looks great but think of all the free exercise you are missing out on with no snow to shovel ☹️

@C6Billi did a couple of hours of garden work yesterday. Fertilizing, worm castings, compost, weed pulling. Picked some oranges. Also enjoyed a cold beer after being in the sun. Wouldn’t trade it.

Just think how cold your beer would be if the wind chill was 10 below zero 🥶

Good to hear that you are on the mend.  Getting a bout of COVID seems to be inevitable these days, particularly with small people around!

Troble, you should be here we've had over 100cm in the last 3 weeks. That white stuff sure freshens things up. Those dark winter days become so much brighter and working out in that cool fresh air feels sooo gooood.

@tekobo the worst part was losing my sense of taste, thankfully it seems to be coming back as I can finally taste my coffee this morning

That's my greatest fear about this virus - losing smell/taste. I'd be devastated. Lucky that when I tested poz back in October, I was totally asymptomatic. But, I'm not taking crazy chances with Omicron. 

[Troble]

@tony b that’s been my biggest fear too. Not being able to enjoy food or wine would be devastating. My friends that all had it over the past few months all said they told their taste for 4-5 days.

I need to get some pics on the grill but the aftermath is ok too I suppose.  My son loves his bone-in meats.  Cooked on my 32BB with Pecan chunks at 300f for about 1hr, glazed and back on for another 8 minutes.  Dry brined for about 30hrs in the fridge uncovered prior to the cook.

Took the leftover chicken breast from yesterday, made some white quinoa, canned black beans warmed on the stove with some garlic powder, canned corn, homemade guacamole, shredded cheese. Chicken bowls 

[Poochie]

mustang1988 You know those drumsticks were a winner when you get more than one thumbs up. They sure looked good

Troble that's a rare case of healthy and tasing good. It looks yummy anyway.

My local butcher shop had boneless turkey breasts so I figured it would make for some quick easy meals for a few days. Cooked it at 375 until internal temp reached 138, it carried over to 142. It was rubbed with a little yardbird and a little Lane’s Apple Pie Seasoning. I’ll chop some for turkey salad and cube some to put over a salad of greens 😁

Turkey looks yum, moist and ready to bed between two pieces of bread.

[C6Bill]

I just happen to have some fresh bread lol
