DNP Posted May 29, 2017 Report Posted May 29, 2017 The way those guys cook it on a Santa Maria style grill...is the absolute best way. You say when you're ready and we'll ship a few your way. Costco sells decent packs of tri-tip here. Haven't really noticed a difference with prime/choice...it's all good. Salt/pepper/garlic...all it needs.
Sisco Posted May 29, 2017 Report Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) The Santa Maria Grill is a lot like the Argentine Parrilla which I learned to use down there. They are awesome in that you can use direct heat yet use the grill pully system to keep the fire from touching the meat. I had one, but it finally rusted out. Today, just doing some slow cooked baby backs for the missus and I. Edited May 29, 2017 by Sisco

DNP Posted June 2, 2017 Report Posted June 2, 2017 Who has a meat slicer they love? I'm ready to buy one. Been researching and a lot of the little ones claim no good for cheese. Found one for about $600 that seems really nice, but don't know if I should spend that much. I was really hoping to keep it under $400

I was really hoping to keep it under $400 Get the best one you can, otherwise it will jam up like a First Generation PSA10. (sorry PSA owners, I just had to use that). I have a cheap one and it works, but is starting to fall apart, and doesn't always cleanly cut. Speaking of cutting, Kamikoto knives of Japan has changed their marketing strategy. Their knives are in the $400 to $600 range, but now if you advance order them you can pick them up in the $125 to $200 range. I have one coming July 1, I will give a report on it.
DNP Posted June 2, 2017 Report Posted June 2, 2017 poor PSA guys...they always get the brunt of the joke. My first gen of the JD Machine stuff had its issues. Good news is not a lot of guys own em...so I never caught a lot of heat. I'm probably going to go with the 600 dollar one. Happy birthday to me! Thanks for the input. I used a nice one when I worked at a butcher shop in highschool...wish I could spend a few thousand, but with the limited cutting I'll be doing...that might be overkill.
Sisco Posted June 18, 2017 Report Posted June 18, 2017 What do you do when you have three Dads whose grown up kids can't be here for Fathers Day? The parents get together for a BBQ. Going on the smoker in an hour. After pics to follow. Trying out a vertical rib rack on the Akorn.

Here's what burning off the grill at 700+ did... Looks like 114 at my house... Edited June 18, 2017 by 98Z5V
98Z5V Posted June 18, 2017 Report Posted June 18, 2017 Check out that humidity, though. People always say, "You don't have any humidity - you don't have any "heat index..." You fuckers have a "heat index" so you know what real heat feels like... Your low-a$s temps with humidity feel like they're alot hotter... It's actually alot hotter here... Stick your head in the oven - there's no humidity in there. That's your "heat index..."
sketch Posted June 18, 2017 Report Posted June 18, 2017 Thats exactly what an oven would feel like!! No thanks, it's a nice 60 degrees and pissing down rain so I don't have to mow or cook outside I'll take that over the oven.. girls are making spaghetti yeah I'm so not getting ribs. Damn!
shepp Posted June 19, 2017 Report Posted June 19, 2017 Said F it put my own BBQ sauce on there, I did get "that's got alil heat" old mans getting soft
