No pics sadly but just finished a sirloin steak with corn on the cob and wedges all off the bbq. so as not to waste I put some apple and bananas in a try and baked in a bit of sugar and cinnamon and served with ice cream. 

Not a bad day at all. Pizza for tomorrow 🤤

Going to be a scorcher today. Got a 3kg pork butt on the go, with hickory and cherry wood (and a few beers while I keep an eye on things) 🙂

Turned out really well. Took about 8hrs, left to rest, then served in rolls with dill pickle and jalapeños, and some Asian coleslaw. Just the job on a hot day! 

Plenty of leftovers, too – any suggestions what to do with it?

I use mine to make Pulled Pork Cannelloni very nice (most supermarkets sell dried cannelloni tubes and just fill them and cook. Equally Lasagne works just as well.

Cool. I liked the idea of cooking one day and then using part of that for the next day.  Looking forward to you cook mate

 I used 5 percent fat beef mince with some oregano pepper and a pince of ancho chilli flakes for meatballs but it would be nicer with a higher fat content mince.

Once I poured sauce on I added wood for smoke. Loosened off sauce with water from time to time to stop it drying out.

Bananas add rum and foil up 

then  add whipped or ice cream and some chocolate sauce 

I’ll do that soon but the little one will want to eat it as he loves bananas. However at least it will mean he’ll sleep at night.

So after a morning out I got home and started the pizzas. Some worked out better than others but SWMBO is determined that the base recipe she knows is the best...it’s ok but not the best.

I then made some meatballs in a tomato sauce for dinner tomorrow. I used 20% fat mince with some oregano and pepper and put them on the skillet to cook.

Added the sauce and smoked some apple chips for flavour. Now I’m looking forward to tomorrow evening.

Forecasting a dry but cool day tomorrow in my part of the world. So just picked up a dry aged Jacobs ladder. First attempt, with this piece of meat as a whole piece and only for 2 of us so got a 3 bone one. 

Not sure i can get my ProQ at a steady 275F for the duration of the long cook needed, so may go with the plancha and add a foil tray of water to the lower rack, to see if I can get the temperature up to 275F and keep it steady with the smartfire and ProQ cocoshell for fuel .

I cooked a 4 bone one in the house last weekend because it was vile outside. 

I think it is my favourite thing to cook right now.  Enjoy. Phil.
