The
Big Green Egg
and then showed me the Big Green Egg. I continue to use the BGE weekly and everytime I do I think about him.
This is a passion I hope to pass down to my kids one day. I am going to start posting my different cooks.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I own a Big Green Egg. Which means, by default, I am part of the
cult. A member of the BGE army.
If you own one, you understand. If you don't
but have eaten food prepared in a BGE, you may also understand.
To be clear - I am not a blogger. But, I have a few friends who are interested in either
cooking, BBQing, BGEs, or similar.
And, as dorky as it may seem, we
sometimes take photos of preparation, cooking, enjoying. I also do this
from time to time. And, when I have a few spare moments, I post the
photos here.
If you happened across this page by
chance, enjoy. I have no place for comments, etc. Because, as I
mentioned, I am not a blogger and this is not a
blog. I guess that makes it a gallery.
Either way - enjoy.
Brisket
#1. Smoked brisket can be a difficult cook. For me, I
have always been a student of the game. I can smoke damn
near anything. But, previous attempts have been
met with mixed results. This was my first attempt at a brisket on the
BGE. Not too bad, but there was a different level out there.
Pork
Tenders. This was pretty cool. Stuff
with sliced apple and cinnamon. Tasty. We have ideas for next time!
Standing Rib
Roast. One of my all-time favorite things to cook on the Egg. Click
and find out why!
Baby
Back Ribs. My first time. And holy crap,
they were totally awesome.
Steaks and
Such. OK, every
once in a while, you toss steaks, potato, and jalapeno poppers on the
egg for a great meal. And,
indeed it was!
Spatchcock Turkey. If you know what I am talking about, you get
it. If not, click here and learn the
greatness of cooking with no backbone.
Short
Ribs. Wowzers. I smoke them for three
hours and then braise them. Tasty? Hell yeah....
Standing
Rib Roast #2. Oops, I did it
again. And friggin nailed it. This is awesome.
Chickens. It’s been a long
time. Welcome back!!
Brisket
#2. That other level out
there?? I found it. Not enough photos, but this rocked!
Beef
Tenderloin Oh good Lord, this is
good. My method is a little
unconventional, but it works. Better
than most in my opinion.
Pork Chops I don’t grill a lot
of pork. But when I do, I kill it. Chops bought online from NY, and they turned
out more than great.
Yahoo Wagyu! I have not purchased Wagyu beef before
thinking that Prime would suffice. Until
the other day. Oh my, this was a
different level of steak.
Smoked
Turkey! It’s Thanksgiving. And this year, it’s
low and slow, baby. A fresh 15 pounder
goes for 7 hours and the results are fantastic.
Smoked Lamb! Did I say smoked 2 times in a row??!! It had been so long since I cooked lamb. Any doubts were soon put to rest. Dayum…….
Pizza One of the best, most fun and sometimes
intimidating meals to cook on an Egg.
The trick this time is that I am alone……
Chicken
2 Ways I like beer can! I like Spatchcock! Here’s what happens
when I promise a beer can chicken to a friend and Ellen brings home 2
yardbirds!!
Beef
Tenderloin, #2 I love cooking this
cut of meat. Not only does it impress
the guests, I impress myself. It’s a #1 cut of
meat and I cook it accordingly.
Osso Bucco Holy crap….. This is BGE heaven. I follow a recipe recently viewed and I think
I am in love. Oh, and did I mention
bourbon smoking wood???
3-2-1 Ribs My last rib post was 7 years ago. This proves that all things can show
improvement. And boy oh boy do things
get better!
