Brisket and a couple sausage links going on tomorrow and doing a big pot of pintos seasoned with onion, rotel tomatoes, garlic and cilantro.
Heated the pool for the weekend to let the grand boys blow off some energy.
Liv’n the dream.

Probably nothing in the next 2-3 weeks unfortunately unless I cook the last deer backstrap.

I've got some smoked pork butt burnt ends on the smoker as we speak. I'll probably bake some acorn squash to go with it. If you haven't tried these burnt ends you really need to. I like them better than the beef variety.

Sorry I didn't take pics, but I follow this recipe and it always turns out really well. The only thing I do differently is to cook to final temp of 200* because we like them to "almost" be to the point where they fall apart, but not quite.

Sounds good? How are they for leftovers, just as good?

I've never had any left 68 so I'm not sure. I don't cook just loads of them though because it's just me and the wife here.

Yep there’s just 2 of us here now. So you just cook a couple lbs at a time?

Yes. Our HEB usually has these marked as sountry style ribs from pork butt already sliced into strips about 1'x1'. Most of the time I get boneless and cook about half of them.

30 mph, gusting to 40 today so had no choice but to cook inside. Been spoiled by smokers and grills for all these years, but decided to try my first oven baby-back ribs in about 20 years. Surprised myself by just how good they came out. The wife was impressed!! [Linked Image]

Baby back ribs are great however cooked. Those do look delicious!
