I've been searching for a bit and have seen a bunch of the cake like or sweet corn bread recipes, but I haven't really found a savory one. Anyone have one they wouldn't mind sharing?

So, this is my second cook on my new cooker. My luck on my first and second cooks have brought rain. So I had the EZ up in place. I used the 2x4 mod to keep water from puddling over the front of the cooker. She was crusing along between 275 and 310 for pretty much most of the cook. I...

Making a small filet of Nova Lox for Christmas, following Thirdeye's recipe. http://playingwithfireandsmoke.blogspot.com/2006/08/thirdeyes-nova-lox.html I picked up a nice Wild Caught Sockeye filet. It was previously frozen, but looks the part. I don't like using farm raised for this. I...

Well, It took around 12 hours to get down to Shirley Fabrication on Friday from the northern burbs of Chicago. When we arrived, we met the crew and checked out the shop. I still can't believe how much cool stuff they get out of that little shop. They will be seriously rocking it out when the...

Went with Puerto Rican this evening. Had about half a butt on the performer indirect with apple chucks for smoke. Seasoned simply to start with just Kosher salt and pepper. After a few hours it went into a pan with the braising liquid. Lime juice, orange juice, garlic, onion powder...

Ribeyes are just about my favorite cut of beef for grilling. Hanger steaks are a close second. I picked up a few nice ones for dinner tonight. Seasoned up with Salt Lick, Salt Lick and Fiesta Steak Seasoning (bottom). Hard to tell the difference in the picture, but the Fiesta has less...

I needed to figure out dinner tonight and found a tritip I had forgotten about in the freezer. Early this morning I pulled that out to thaw. It was good around noon and then went back in the fridge till dinner time. I fired up the kettle with Kingsford and some hickory. We had thin blue. On...

Cooked up brisket today. My FIL was visiting so the second one is for him to take home. Seasoned with Salt Lick and Peppered Cow....resting here. Slicing... Fancy china plates....served up with beans and corn. It was too much for Ozzie....he couldn't stand it....please, please...

Cooked some lamb on Labor Day Monday. The leg was seasoned simply with garlic, rosemary, kosher salt and pepper. Cooking indirect, apple for smoke. Kettle ran around 375 for the cook, for 90 minutes or so. Maybe a touch more. Plated up with a sauce of pan drippings, wine, flour...

All these blackstone griddles are making me seriously jealous. I needed a griddle burger fix. I went with my Lodge CI griddle on the Weber. Patties, thin and seasoned. Had some Old Bay fries.... Griddle is good and hot. Sear! Toasted bun with lettuce and tomato....It hit the spot!

Pulled these out of the freezer yesterday. I really love hanger steaks. While they were warming up, I got some fresh bread going... Over the coals for a quick direct cook. Simply served with green beans and the bread....

After work on New Years Eve, I started drinking a few beers and broke out some lovely squid snacks that Buccs sent me. And that got me in the mood for ramen. I followed a post that Landarc made a while back for dashi.... http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2506458&postcount=5...

So, there's a Pulled Pork TD going on for leftovers. That's just the time I've had lately to put something together. These last few months have been nutso. Anyway, here's my leftover pulled pork noodle bowl! This was a great non-traditional way to use pulled pork and something we will do...

I love ribeye. We had these for our pre-mothers day dinner. I'll added the shrooms for peeps, since I know he likes them so much! Oh, and that other stuff is bacon and onion jam.

Picked up some nice ribeyes for dinner Saturday. Served it up with twice fried french fries, brussel sprout slaw with bacon lardons and a mushroom wine and cream sauce. Turned out pretty well. Pretty tasty!

There was a weird large yellow orb in the sky today, most of the cold white stuff is gone and I didn't need a coat to go outside. I took these as ominous signs and decided to cook inside. I hope this freakish weather retreats and I return to my hermit nature. Here's my red pazole...or the...

Cooked this up for the throwdown.....I love kofta kebabs. This is how is went. Spice mix: garlic, salt, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, grated onion, chopped fresh parsley, ground cumin, cayenne, ground allspice, ground black pepper, ground ginger. I mixed that up with 3/4 of a pound of...

I wasn't gonna post this, but Landarc inspired me. I recently got a donabe which is a Japanese hot pot. I went to Mitsuwa which is a very nice Japanese grocery store in Arlington Heights. I'd recommend this place to any Chicagoland Brethren. Here's what I picked up. I made up some...

I've been baking bread for a while. Whenever I'm Q'ing something that deserves bread. Steaks, roast chicken, chops, whatever... This is what you do with the oven when it's sitting lonely in the kitchen.... 1 - Get your ingredients. You need flour, All Purpose or bread, doesnt' matter. Brands...
