I fired up Earl today and got him REAL hot....around 400-450F!

Threw on some chicken and sausage I picked up from Kroger.

I also put some shorties on, but they aren't part of the TD :wink:

After 20 min or so, the chicken was done, so I diced it up and mixed it with some brown rice and salsa.

Then I mixed it up and spooned the mixture into some blanched yellow bell peppers and put them in some small foil pans to put back on Earl.

While waiting for them to get up to temp, I enjoyed a local Franconia Kolsch.

Seeing Big Georges stuffed burger made me want me make my own!

I started with the cheese to shove in my meatball of love. Sharp Cheddar, some beer, and sodium citrate (this makes your cheese have the consistency of velveeta when melted, it helps hold everything together too). I also added roasted jalapeno and red onion to the cheese.

Next came the bacon weave. I wanted to use some leftover homemade buckboard bacon but I thought I'd give my burger a fancier hat.

Perfection!

Now came the time to form the juicy lucy since my cheese has set. 1lb of beef from my buddy's steer that I just got about a month ago. His beef is delish!

And back in the chiller while I fire up the kamado!

My propane tank finally ran out of fuel. These things just keep going

Next I threw some eggs into the sous vide. 147 for an hour.
19149489214_fbcd9ccb87_b.jpg

Threw the burger on indirect to give it some smoke. Just local lump + a chunk of hickory.
19584055660_e598ea7c46_b.jpg


Started to firm up after about 30min so I pulled it off and gave it a hot sear on both sides. I added it's beautiful weave and a slice of pepperjack. Like my wife's pretty plates?
19584073538_829abd1a64_b.jpg


After I finished the searing it was time to toast the bun. I brushed on leftover bacon grease from the bacon weave. Mmmmmm bacon.

Now finally time to assemble and discover the molten gooey love. Just some mayo,ketchup,mustard,lettuce.
Here she is before.

Almost forgot the egg hence why the previous pic was lacking.

Poblano Peppers Stuffed with Pulled Pork (Cochinita Pibil)

This is an entry into the “Stuffed!” Throwdown.

I saw this made by Al Czervik (aka Mongo) and have wanted to make them ever since. My filling is a little different than his but has everything his had plus some more.

Started out making up some Mexican Rice by soaking the rice for 15 minutes. I then cut up some onion, bell pepper and got out some 4 veggie blend to add to the rice. I sautéed the onions and pepper until they started to sweat. Then added the 4 veggie blend and cooked it for 5 minutes.Now I added the drain rice and cooked this until some of the rice just started to brown.

I then added this to my rice cooker that had 1 tbsp. of OO, 1 tbsp. of Tapatio hot sauce, 1/2 cup of Clamato Picante juice, 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth and 1 tsp. of salt waiting for it.

Here are the results

While the rice was cooking I started making up my filling. I cut up some onion slivers and started to sauté them. Throw in some diced potatoes.
While they are cooking I start to roast my poblanos. (To give them a head start)Added another 1/2 of onion slivers, beans, corn, the Cochinita and finally a can of Diced Hatch Chilis.

The Poblanos are just starting to blister so it’s time to take them off and bring them and the filling inside.

Now I cut off the top of the Poblanos and seeded them.j

I put some of the rice in a bowl and mixed it up with some of the cooked filling and then stirred in 6 oz. of cream cheese. (In 2 oz. batches)



Add some rice to the bottom of the Poblanos and the filling on top of the rice.

Now I place them into an oiled pan and put them on my kamado. (At 350 degrees) Direct side for a few minutes and then over to the in-direct side.
Here is what they look like after 30 minute. I sprinkled some Kirkland Mexican 4 blend cheese on top and cooked for another 5 minutes.

Here it is plated with some tortillas, rice, beans, pickled onion and a Sierra Nevada Golden IPA.









Here’s a shot after the first bite.

And here is the Money Shot below.

Muy Delicioso! It tasted like a cross between an ABT, an Enchilada and a Chile Relleno. I will definitely be making these again.

Thanks for looking.

Yardbird surprise

Official entry:

Time for another TD entry by ninja and Weige..........weige? You ready for the stuffed throwdown?



Guess not. Well it is a real scorcher today. Suppose ill have to go it alone on this one.

Lets start this party by stuffing a fatty with habenaro jack cheese and partially smoking it.



We almost had an explosive situation here but all is good.

While that was going down i removed the bones from body of the chicken, slathered with mayo and seasoned with tony Cs and cracked black pepper.



I stuffed the fatty in the bonless bird body and tied it all together.

On the akorn breast side down for 30 minutes then flipped




One hour and change and we were golden. Nice color on the bird.



"Whats that? Chicken is your favorite? But you didn't even help." "Ok just a little"



Polling pic

 
And like a true ninja, we all just got a surprise throwing star to the face!

Epic, ninja!
