Looks great. It looks better than my second brisket ever did.

Looks great. It looks better than my second brisket ever did.

While it may have been the second brisket, I've done quite a few ribs and chicken over the last few years. My Weber Smokey Mountain is fairly new, so I'm still learning to master it, but I've got my general smoking down. As confident as I am, it was still stressful doing something like this for his birthday - lots of pressure to get it right. You second guess everything (do I wrap or don't I; crap it stalled - guess I have to wrap; how long to wait before I wrap to make sure everything times out right), but in this case I managed to get everything perfect and we were eating within about 20 minutes of my target time.

Awesome Indian meal tonight. Kidney beans with caramelized onion and lemon, cabbage and potatoes cooked with a ton of spices and raita with cucumber and tomato.
I just love how you can get so much great flavor out of such simple ingredients. Really yummy and satisfying..

I think we were thinking along the same lines as I am making red beans and rice for dinner. Just something simple.

Here is my Red Beans and Rice. My wife says dam fine Red Beans and Rice.

Leftover smoked brisket + leftover mac and cheese = mac and cheese topped cottage pie

Love okra! Never tried roasting it.

Love okra! Never tried roasting it.

I think the technique is more properly called dry frying. You heat a tablespoon or two of oil and cook them covered for about 3 1/2 minutes per side. They’re great!

 

[coxhaus]

I like to toss okra with olive oil and Cajun seasoning then grill it. But I may give your powdered cumin and coriander a go. Did you slice your okra in half?

 

[Lars]

This is pure Danish nostalgia. My grandmother would have served more potatoes and made the meatballs smaller. Still, I think she would have liked my version too..

Frikadeller with potatoes and stewed cabbage.

Love okra! Never tried roasting it.

My wife, a native New Orleanian, routinely oven roasts sliced okra before adding it to gumbo. Roasting intensifies the flavor and rids it of slime.

Limpets, from the Açores. I thought you guys might want to see this, though I did not prepare these myself. I am spending a few days on São Miguel island, and immensely enjoyed my lunch today of these locally popular and abundant sea snails. Locally called lapas, they are pried from their tenacious grip on intertidal rocks, and cooked face up in an iron skillet with garlic and butter or olive oil, and sprinkled with salt and lemon juice. They taste quite like mild clams. Delicious.

Yup. I cut off a bit of the top and the tail first

My idea was to make pizza today, but when I woke up this morning I just didn't feel like pizza(blasphemy I know).
So I boned out some chicken legs, fired up the grill and made chicken and veggie skewers instead.
Made some tzatziki too. It was nice.

I do a grilled meal loaf that looks similar. Secret ingredients are a can of drained tomatoes and green chilis (Rotel here in USA) and a cup of shredded cheddar. One of my favorite meals!

Chicken feta sausages

 

[Lars]

You guys making charcuterie

 

[Lars]

Hake alla Carlina with buttery potatoes.. Damn, that was nice..

 

[MrHiggins]

I made a salsa out of chiles and garlic from my garden (Fresno, habanero, and aji). Bright, fruity, and SPICY!!

Smoked wings and beef sausage. The wings in the upper corner are kind of a Mexican-Korean blend with a rub containing a good bit of cumin, dried sage, and Korean chili powder. The lower corner are garlic and grated parmesan.

Basque cheese cake. Unfortunately, it suffered a little while I transferred it to the plate. And the centre did not set completely. Still, seeing that this my first cake ever, I'm not too disappointed. And it tasted really nice
