Great looking cooks @Tyrus @David Chang @tony b

echoing what @Poochiesaid I’ve been doing most of my shopping lately at Costco business. $3.99/lb prime Briskets, $16-$18 for 4 pork tenderloins, last pork butts I got was a 2 pack for $1.99/lb. I’ve also been eyeing the beef tenderloin they have there but I haven’t pulled the trigger because ones usually too big for my family but I was co side ring buying one and cutting it in 1/2 and vaccum sealing the other one 

I don’t have a meat freezer yet but I’m seriously considering getting one so I can stock more meats, I also own a vaccum sealer but have never used it and I need to get on that. I know. I learned a long time ago if I just ride @tony bcoattails I’ll be a successful cook

Theres an up side and down side to those vacum sealers Troble, once you get started it's hard to stop. Looking in the freezer I came across a leg of lamb (bone in) the other day, the date on it was from 2 years ago, it was buried down under, yah almost in Australia. Lambs good for the doggies, no complaints there. It does save you on trips to the store, all you gotta do is open the freezer door. I think it would advantageous to keep a list posted on the freezer and as you go along pulling things out cross them off, but who thinks of that? Keep on truckin my friend, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a generator handy in case of long term outages although some insurance policies cover it's best to take the precaution.

You're too kind! 🤗 I've learned a thing or 2 from you @Troble! I'd have never become addicted to Peruvian Green Crack Sauce before you posted the recipe for the chicken.

@tony b I’m headed to Peru March 24th after having to cancel our trip in 2020 & 2022. I’m going to come back with recipes specifically on that sauce. Last time I was there was 2014 and my cooking skills have improved a ton since then. Just you wait I’ll have a bunch of new stuff to try for sure

Cherry wood chicken with a Tart sauce. Topping the chicken was a total of 7 or 8 spices with a good dose of grated lemon using Truff and Olive oil to hold it on. The sauce was an emulsified Olive oil base with a white wine vinegar, from what I remeber adding was Maldon Sea salt, ground pepper, dijon mustard, thyme, rosemary, fresh cut cilantro, fresh garlic, fresh tomatoe, fresh green onion top, fresh squeezed lemon, capers,  yellow pepperconi and a dash of hot sauce. Use the salt at the end to open and raise the flavors some, just before you tuck it into the frig for it all to come together, 1-2 hrs.  Sorry I don't use teaspoons, it's an eye thing. Sprayed chiken at 145 degrees with light spray of Canoila oil to crispen the skin. Plated with your staple norms for a few nice colors to compliment the bird. Cooked at 350+ indirect

@Troble I think I’m going to need to get a roti spot for my 32, those birds look delicious!

 

@Tyrus the color on that chicken is great!

I did my first chicken cook on Sunday for an Oscars party we hosted. Two birds spatchcocked, indirect with a half basket and apple pellets in the cold smoke generator. Initially thought to cook at 250 for a while, but lunch plans ran late and I decided closer to 300 would be a safer bet time-wise. Think they ended up cooking around 290 for a couple hours. I removed the skin and pulled the meat for sandwiches with a vinegar-based sauce. The smoke flavor was perfect! Skin was a little gummy/rubbery which didn’t matter in this case since it was removed, but I think I’ll try a higher heat next time to see if I can get a nicer texture on that. Between cooking and hosting, I didn’t remember to get a single photo of the food, just the KK smoking away 9668BA8C-38ED-4D41-B3E2-E94D27C016E3.thumb.jpeg.1694e6ec159f6473e7f8670c21720de3.jpeg

Or Troble, you can get yourself a dry aging meat fridge.
These two cuts have been aging for 3 weeks,

I have a strip loin that’s been aging for 70 of days…… but keep nicking steaks off it.
