Grilling

[Armed Eye Doc]

I found a couple of chuck roasts in the mark-down section and wanted to try something different.  I marinated them overnight in a hot and spicy marinade.

Then put them on the pellet grill at about 250.

I wrapped them up at 165°F with some beef tallow for extra moisture.

I pulled them at about 201-4 (depending on where I measured).  It took almost 12 hours to finish.  I did not let it rest nearly long enough (about 30 minutes) because I was hungry and it was past my bedtime.

It looks good and tastes good but there's no hint of the hot and spicy marinade.  I will try this again but use more marinade for longer.  I will also use my propane smoker.  It gives better smoke.  It needs to be left on for a few more degrees to be slightly more tender.

If I can get it to taste right, I may bring this to the fall shoot instead of pulled pork.

That’s one thing I found with smoking chuck roasts they seem to get alittle  chewy. I wonder if instead of wrapping them you put them on a pan with some of the drippings with foil over them to finish would help

Reverse seared a center cut loin chop, 200° for 40-45 min then seared each side for about 2.5 min at 450°. Turned out tender and juicy.

Now I know why I needed a pork belly!? Shepp you inspire brother! 

I had the day off and splurged for smoked pork. A belly for burnt ends, and a sholder for the mix.. damn good eats! 🍻

 

 

I'm going to try pork belly burnt ends tomorrow for the first time ever.  Gonna follow a meat church process including his sauce recipe.  Hope it turns out as good as yours looks!

I bought some beef ribs because they were on sale.

I cooked them on the pellet grill after marinating them overnight.

They had a good flavor and looked good.

Final thoughts are that this part of the beef rib has too much connective tissue and not enough meat.  I will not buy them again.  @shepp says to look for beef plate ribs, aka Dino ribs.

Mmmm, meat candy.

Trying to get ribs dialed in it's a different grill from the GM. Added the wheels makes it easier to move around. Cooked @250* instead of 225*

Fresh caught walleye from Saturday night. grilled the fillet on my grill grate sear plate seasoned with Dan-o’s original. king trumpet mushrooms and asparagus from the farmers market also on the grill and walleye cheeks skillet seared like scallops in butter.

Walleye is good eating.

Very nice fish is easy to over cook. Been using the rotisserie 1.5 hrs done 0 maintenance. Let rest on one side then let rest on the other side,very juicy. Olive oil, kosher salt and ground black pepper.

So looking forward for being able to attempt to copy some what's been cooked here at the new place. Now I have to look at a new BBQ( natural gas) hoping to get a combination grill/griddle..

I've been very satisfied with my Weber gas grill going on 10 years now.  Mine is just a basic 3 burner Spirit series.  I also have a couple of different smokers - one charcoal and one electric.  But our dinner has probably come off that gas grill 2-3 times a week during that period.  The weather is also pretty good around here in Western North Carolina year round 🙂

I've had the Weber Performer charcoal grill since it first came out. Replaced bottom kettle once, top once,cleaning blades 4 times.

Been working for two week straight between being on call and home projects. Treated myself to a fat ass steak and some beers on the party deck

reverse seared, and roasted some garlic cloves in with the veggies, I will be doing that again!!!

Looks good Neal.
