I took a can of pineapple chunks, ate about half of them :D but used the rest and all the juice, a can of mango nectar, started those boiling. Chopped and added all the peppers, some cilantro, ,some garlic, salt, a little bit of vinegar, some lemon juice, some added sugar. Let it simmer an hour or so, then ran an immersion blender through it and let it continue to simmer down to where it got to the thickness I wanted it (sort of wing tossing sauce grade). Its hotter as a sauce than the buffalo wild wings mango habanero but fairly close (not quite flavor wise, but hotness wise).

I know, but I figured I would share! Those look good I cut some death dust with some secret weapon on some chicken boob the other night ????

[DNP]

We did salt/pepper/garlic and onion powder, secret weapon, and death dust. 3 kinds. People loved the secret weapon. 

 

I I like the idea of a mix of the two....I'm trying that next time.

DNP is that a Traeger? If so how do you like it. I might be bringing one home this afternoon.

[DNP]

It is a Traeger. It works great and does a fine job, but I would seriously consider some of the others unless you're getting a deal you can't pass up. I don't think the traeger gets as hot as some of them and there have been some issues with the controls, but I think they have resolved that in the newer ones. Guys like their green mountain grills and pellet pro has some nice options.

Made a big pot of stock while watching football today, If you have a pressure canner you can can it, if not freeze it. Smoked turkey/chicken remains make awesome stock for chili or soup.

take all your left overs after you've picked the meat off, bones, skin, giblets (minus liver) break up if need be

put it in a pot with a coupe carrots and parsnip unskun and washed, one onion quartered with skin on, fresh parsley and tyme, few sticks of celery (with leaves) few Bay leaves, pepper corns and few cloves of garlic 

cover completely with water and simmer all day when done pull out large bits and strain (I like to cool it put it in the fridge over night then skim the fat off the top once it hardens).

That's a big thing down here. It produces a wonderful bird, but is very non-cost-effective unless you get several families together to share the cost of the peanut oil and someone already has a large deep fryer.

First time I ever had a deep fried turkey was in Africa in the spring. We got a shipment of turkeys in with our other supplies, and one of the contractors had the equipment. I thought it sounded weird to deep fry a bird, especially as a Yankee who had always had a roast turkey up to that moment. Was I ever wrong! If you've never had a well-seasoned, Cajun fried turkey you are really missing out.

Back to grill-ing and smokers.

Any of you regular smoker guys ever used a CampChef ?

Camp Chef SmokePro SE Pellet Grill (Amazon $399)

 

[washguy]

Hi Mrmac      Merry Christmas to you and your family!   looks like a traeger clone....you can get a traeger for almost the same price...im not a big fan of traegers though...I think if they have their  flame  out and wild temp variations worked out in the latest models they would be gtg..... Wash

[mrmackc]

Thanks Wash,  I saw one on FB and went to their Camp Chef website.

Price was $499 ,

went to Amazon they have the older exact model. as pictured for $399.   In case anyone is interested
