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

Thanks man! It's the first time I've cooked chicken halves and I think it's my favourite way of cooking 'em. They went for around an hour a half at 330F, thigh temp hitting 185F. Breast was over, but keeping everything together like that meant they stayed really juice with enough bite through skin to get all the rub flavour in there. Just need to fix the clumping issue with that rub and I'm done :thumbup1:

Thanks for listing your times and temps. Going to be trying this soon!

I did more bacon this past weekend. 24 hours in the smoker. Two hours with no smoke at 120F to dry the surface, then add smoke and slowly bump up the temp to 160F until I hit 145F internal for at least five minutes. Smoke provided by oak and alder pellets. After trimming and slicing I had 10.25 lbs of packaged bacon. Some of you may be wondering what I do with all this bacon...:001_smile Vacuum packed and frozen it will last for years, so I'm not worried about it spoiling before I can use it. But I've been giving it away, selling some to friends, and finding things to cook that can benefit from adding some bacon (pretty much everything amirite???).

Fridays are Fishtastic!
Helpful hint for DFW area people who use a chimney- newspapers cost $1. Here we have a free classified called the Greensheet ( slogan is Greensheet brings you buyers), made with the same type of paper. Since they are free I picked one up. Greensheet lights my fires :biggrin:

Rib eyes, Earl Campbell hot links, and orange bell peppers. It has been 2 months since I had a rib eye

On edit: changed George Foreman to Earl Campbell

Here was last night's meal. S&P chicken wings, garlic toast and SouthWest salad.

Chicken wings turned out well on the charcoal.

Yeah, looks like you're gonna have to buy about 5 prime rib roasts and cut the steaks yourself.

I'll take mine about 1 3/4 inch thick. :lol:
 
Again, man I miss grilling fish.

Steak, potatoes and beans...mushrooms for my wife and one of the kids.

First butts of the year! Of course it dropped to 30 degrees last night!

Yeah, it's getting to be that time of the year again here too.

Nice looking basket of meat Jim, lot of nice smokey pink pieces in there. Also, after looking at countertops and kitchen reno stuff for the past month, I like your countertop. It looks like solid surface, but is it Quartz, Granite, Corian or other?
