Smokin.....Oh Yeah !!!

[scott_vt]

I'll be watching the sky for smoke and my nose to the wind sniffing you out Scotty.

Enjoy and step in some mud for me.

Good Afternoon Thomas,
I hope you have your good nose on today, because Im in Ct not Vt !

Scotty, let us know what you think of the Jack Daniels chips. I haven't tried the chips, but did try their pellets, but only once. I was not favorable impressed and went back to using regular old hickory and mesquite chips.

.

Good Afternoon Bird,
I absolutely will ! Even if they dont stack up well to my hickory chips, I doubt that will put too much of a damper on the day!

OK here is the marinate recipe for today !

Tennessee Whiskey Marinade
1/4 C Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey
1/4 C Soy sauce
1/4 C Jack Daniels mustard
1/4 C minced green oinions & tops
1/4C firmly packed light brown sugar
1 tsp salt
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Pepper to taste


And ..... to give you a bit more flavor for the day... a pic of the temp from my truck travel pack.... todays music Craig Morgan and Alan Jackson... and last but not least some unused soldiers lined up in the snow bank !

OK gotta go there is a beer out there with my name on it ! Its OK its after 12 !

OK Guys,
Just a couple of shots of the first and second racks !

 

[Bird]

That sure looks good, but we don't get many opportunities to cool the beer that way.

Scotty you should be up in this neck of the woods enjoying t-shirt weather.

Good Mornin Thomas,
Yeah it was T shirt weather here for a little while and then the wind came up ! I had a hard time keeping the temp up on my little Brinkman, had to put some rolled up paper towels around the top to hold in my heat !

I need a Big Green Egg, I only need 1500 members to send me a dollar, and this idea could work !

Anyaway the ribs and the chicken came out great, even my wifes cat loved it !

I would highly reccomend this marinate !

I can almost taste it from the pictures, Scotty. It sure looks DEEEE-licious!

I can't complain though. I spent most of the afternoon cooking turnip greens and rutabagas. With my heated up ribs, I had a big bowl of greens with hot sauce and rutabagas on the side. I had to do something to keep the calorie count down for the meal.

My ribs were so tender that when I went to slice them, the bones just fell out and I had a solid slab of smoked meat. It was yummy.

Looking at those luscious ribs is torture to those of us who are gastronomically challenged.

Looks very good Scotty! Oh and mud season kicked off this weekend......got to love it.

 

[Bird]

Yep, Scotty, those ribs looked great, and reminded me that I've got two racks in the freezer; maybe next weekend if it isn't too windy.

Good Afternoon Jim,
I have to agree with you on the ribs, they are some of my favorite food also ! Mine werent quite that tender but close, just pick them up and get right to business !

Hello Dudley,
Well thats why I added chicken to the menu, just in case you showed up !

Hi Wayne,
Yep, I think this mud season will be a memorable one with all the frost commin out ! And then thow in a couple of good drenching rain storms !

Good Afternoon Bird,
I figured I would generate some interest in smokin by bringing this thread up again !

BTW I cant really say that I noticed a big difference using those JD chips in comparison to the hickory that I usually use ! But I really liked the marinate, and would use that again in a heartbeat !
