Yeah........someone been slackin'.

Plan is to smoke a rack of ribs and half a rack of lamb tomorrow. So hopefully I'll get you some glamor shots. Just been to busy lately between work and projects to do much sadly.

In the words of our infamous EW... Suck it up duuude.... :rofl2:

:iagree:

Was supposed to boil crawfish today but came down with strep yesterday.

From yesterday's smoke. 9 hr st Louis ribs. Smoked with hickory pellets at 225. Dry rub was brown sugar, paprika, garlic salt, msg, dry mustard, and onion powder. After 6chrs of smoking, I basted with a mixture of honey and maraschino juice. And hr before doneness, I made a quick BBQ including cannonball rum, Ketchup, worschestire, sugar, and apple xidar vinegar. Basted and cycled heat to 200f. Ribs were chewey, but came off the bone clean.

The lamb was smoked in hickory as well for 3 hrs at same temp. Did an Italian dry rub on them including oregano, parsley, cumin, rosemary, thyme, and sage. Smoked to 171f. Fat rendered to the point of being prime rib like and the meat was chewy, but soft and separated nicely.

Uh, mail me a chunk of that... I want to try it.... Looks pretty good

Wasn't bad. Need to tweak it a bit though. Pizza held its shape well and you could eat it with 1 hand without it drooping. I need to measure better when cooking in the cast iron to get a uniform crust though. And I want to brush the whole pizza with porcine and sage olive oil next time followed by sprinkles of garlic salt instead of just on the crust.

Preheating the over with cast iron to 550f was good. Sprinkled cast iron with corn meal and then folded dough into it. Baked for 4 minutes and then removed from oven when dough began to rise. This removed any chance of having an undercooked interior once toppings were added and baked a further 20 minutes.

:yum: Some salmon and rice tonight.
