The Thin Blue Smoke Thread VII- BBQ at the B&B 2015

[oc_in_fw]

So we're talking tacos with the habanero as a sauce on them? Yum

Yep- going to make up some corn tortillas and finish my sauce when I get home.

Those skirt steaks look great...lot's of flavor. I always ask my butcher to run it through their tenderizer.

Habanero hot sauce? Your timing is about right. I'll order 2 bottles please. One for me of course and the other.....who knows.

It will be my first time using smoke- I am anxious about how it will come out.

I was wondering what cut of meat those little steaks were. Skirt Steak is on my list of items to check the local butcher to see if they carry.

We get different names of stuff up here and sometimes we have to special order things in, but they can usually get it or know what I'm talking about.

The one in the rear was actually folded in half- I didn't notice that until after I took the pic.

The flank and skirt are close cuts.

Thanks. I'll have a look on my laminated poster that Beef Canada sent me. It hangs in my wood shop

I saw it at the butcher on day, emailed the Government Boars and they sent me the huge, heavy duty, laminated poster for free. My wife thought I was nuts...actually, she still does.

^^^ Nice poster!


Anyone want some more bacon? Smoked it this weekend, 9 hours with Alder wood. Started off at 120 degrees, bumping the heat up slowly to 160, until it hit 145 IT. Oh, and I finally figured out my slicer, so it's nice to have uniform slices!

Well, then. She has something in common with the rest of us! :kidding

That's a sweet poster! My friend works for my State's beef association- I'll have to see if she has something like that!

I think I need to add bacon to this year's cooking goals

Looks like TermoWorks is going to empty my wallet yet again.

Nice.

They still didn't add a wireless remote display option, so I have no need to upgrade from the $129 TW-8060-kit right now (even that one has gone up to $144)

First food on the traeger. 1.5lb of salmon. It turned out real good. Used some Rub With Love and threw it in. Took almost 45 minutes with finally turning it to high for the last 10 minutes. It was delicious!

A little creole seasoning & some tinned asparagus!

Finished
