Why are you wasting stomach space with all that other "stuff" when there's burnt pork ends to be eaten?

Snow crab in the steamer and prime rib roast on the rotisserie.  New Years surf n turf.

We also had a crab/shrimp boil on Wednesday, as usual I got carried away

@TnRiver46 Carried away is right. PBR is way too fancy for crab legs.😂

Made smoked tri tip like a brisket and it made for some excellent sandwiches...

Learned a valuable lesson with the new stove.  Wife’s recipe for prime rib included an “oven off” period after bringing to temp.  We like our prime on the rare side.  The prime came out medium.  Same recipe we have used for years.  The only thing that changed was the stove.  I am assuming the stove held temperature better than our older one and caused the overcook.  Mildly disappointing but made for a great beef stroganoff leftover meal.

Homemade biscuits and sausage gravy. There is no better breakfast.

Just saw this on bbqpitboys and had to give it a shot. Smoked some bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers and then made burgers stuffed with them. Have to say it was pretty tasty.

@NorcalBassin, oh……. My……. Word…….. the smoked deliciousness. I need 6 of those right now in my belly 

 

first I’ve ever seen a smoke ring on a hamburger

Reviving the thread with my best looking pizza yet. Best tasting as well.

We had a guy on our St Clair trip who is a pizza connoisseur.  He has a portable pizza oven and another at his house that he imported from Italy.  He made us traditional Detroit style pizza this year, makes his own dough, sauce, etc. A real treat.

I am not a big sweets person but my wife made some rhubarb crisp yesterday and I had a piece after dinner.  It was fantastic.  Heck, I might even have another one after dinner tonight too.

Rhubarb crisp with homemade ice cream is hard to beat.

[TnRiver46]

My wife does a rhubarb crisp often with oats on top. It sure is good, granted I’ve never actually seen a rhubarb

Seen this alot but never tried it. I'm sure its as delicious as it sounds. Also good call on the corn, always a good choice.

My 12 year old made dinner for a "look into asia" assignment.  Pad Prig Krapow and Pad Tuafakyao.  So good.

My duck connect came through (my dad bought some at the farmers’ market and gave me a bunch). 
 

I cooked up some legs tonight. Slow cooked them for a couple hours, then seared them in a pan to get the skin super crispy. Then I made a red wine and duck fat-reduction to go over it. Brown sugar-glazed carrots and wild rice on the side. Ate like a king tonight. Duck is about the tastiest meat out there.

@Jar11591, my buddy gives me a whole yeti cooler full of ducks every year straight from the rice fields of Arkansas . No legs or fat  but still delicious ! I have to cook them for about 5 minutes instead of a couple hours with no fat
