Just have to ask - 142F seems low for poultry? But, the pictures show that it looks perfectly cooked. 

My target for boneless white meat is always 140. I hate dried out poultry 😁 If cooking a whole bird I will typically cook until I get my white meat in the mid 140’s and dark in the low 170’s. The only thing worse than dry poultry is biting in and finding blood in the joints 😫

Getting dried out poultry in a KK is almost impossible. @ckreef did an experiment years ago where he actually tried to dry out a bird. Took extraordinary effort to do so. So, don't be afraid to bump up that breast meat temp a bit more to ensure that you get it done all the way down to the bone.

And now for something not poultry related 😁

 

Tomorrow I will turn this into brisket chili for the super bowl on Sunday 😊

You're more brave than I am. I could never stick that probe in the right place after I wrapped it. I always push the probe in from the side...where the flat meets the point, then wrap the whole thing...probe and all. But since you're making chili with it, it's not that critical  to get the temp perfect.

I had a good idea where I was going  

 

I went with butcher paper over a Texas crutch as it is for chili. Overall I am happy with the results, not the best flat I have ever cooked but the point is perfect 👍

Next time go all the way - slather the Wagyu beef tallow on the brisket before you wrap it. Makes a difference!

It’s getting close to being chili 😁

You don't have enough beans in there for Tony.

Same day pizza dough. 65% hydration cooked at 625f for ~5 min each.  The kids were halfway through the first one by the time I finished cooking.

I am absolutely a no beans person, chili doesn’t have beans !!!!! But my beautiful lady friend likes beans in it so we compromise and I put beans in 😁 I may be dumb but I’m not stupid lol

[C6Bill]

While that's all well and good, it doesn't explain the celery?? It's not gumbo, leave that to @Poochie! 🤪

[C6Bill]

Done

You have all the food groups there!

The chili is health food cause it has celery in it 😁

An Afro-Mexi mash-up = Suya Pepper steak skewers meets Mexican Torta. 

Torta with sauteed poblano peppers, onions, and garlic in a crema with lime and cilantro, fresh tomatoes and pickled jalapenos. Airfryer tots on the side, with a nice cooling salad.

Looks great, Tony!  All but the bunny food anyway.

Another dish fixed in a pan. I used my doubled half size steamer pan. Doesn't sound right, does it? I grilled the chicken thighs first, then put them in the other goodies. Put a lid on it and cooked it for 3 1/2 hours at 275-300.  The last picture of the clean pan was showing that when you double the pans, nothing sticks. I rinsed it in hot water and rubbed it with my hand before it gets a serious wash. Anyway, the meal came out very flavorful. The extreme closeup of the served food was because my plate was so messy it was embarrassing.
