Re: What's in your smoker?

Wanted to try something different tonight, so we picked up a small Bison Bottom round. I brined it in a combo of dark beer, garlic, onion, salt,pepper and some cayenne pepper.

This is after about 18hrs in the brine.

After about 2/2.5hrs in the Traeger, it looked delicious!

Not too bad for my first cook with bison. :dr

Re: What's in your smoker?

Looks delicious, Eric.

I've got a whole chicken I butterflied, rubbed with olive oil and fresh rosemary and fresh sage. Roasted potatoes the same way and zucchini with a little salt and pepper.

Dinner is in 15 minutes.

Re: What's in your smoker?

For Father's Day, I had my parents and grandmother over.
Some might think I made too much food for 6 people, but I think it was just about right. :D

Started off with some sausage and pepper heroes.

Re: What's in your smoker?

Damn, my stomach's growling at those pictures!!!

Re: What's in your smoker?

Awesome work Dom. Even the plating looks fantastic.

How do you like the meat hooks and how well do they work out for you? I'm debating about adding them to one of my setups.

Re: What's in your smoker?

Very impressive, Dom. Well done. :tu

Re: What's in your smoker?

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Adam, the meat hooks are working quite well for me.
I really love how they boost capacity.
This coming weekend I plan on having a dozen half chickens on the cooker.
The Pit Barrel is only a 30 gallon drum.
The only things I worry about hanging is ribs, but everything I've read says they won't fall or burn.
It is quickly becoming my favorite cooker.

Re: What's in your smoker?

I would say that based on Dom's post, the economy has fully recovered. Or he found a drug-dealer's wallet
on the ground outside of the grocery store.

I thought that drum looked a little small but wasn't sure.

What's the diameter on the rebar? Like 5/8?

Re: What's in your smoker?

Found a drug dealers wallet on the ground outside the grocery store so I ran in and grabbed a chuck roll. ;)
Prepped some chuckies for a smoke tomorrow.

Re: What's in your smoker?

Jeesus Dom, you're on a roll!

Re: What's in your smoker?

Gotta get to Dom's house!! Awesome cooks, Dom.

Mundane shrimp, steak, and scallop kebabs around these parts.

Re: What's in your smoker?

Looks like Dom's making good use of that charcoal he got on sale. :dr

Re: What's in your smoker?

Peter that looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
