Started off Saturday morning by warming up the cooker with a hot link for breakfast while roasting some garlic for Garlic Herb Butter

Then the ribs went on for my daughter's best friends 21st birthday

and a little refreshment while the ribs cook

Ribs didn't last long enough for post -cook pics.
Sunday Lu and I decided to get a little Coon-A$$ and do Blacken Chicken
Not Cajun, but tasty...

Who says cleaning out the refrigerator can't be deliciously fun!

Holy Shiitake Pizza on the Dark Side.
Roasted garlic oil, mozzarella & provolone cheese, white button, portabella, and shiitake mushrooms, carnalized onions, topped with Monte Amore cheese and drizzled with homemade garlic Aioli and black truffle oil. Real tasty!

Personally, I really like them. These are the ones I got for my RT-340 smoker. I think I will get a set that are made for this pellet grill for Christmas (3 sections that will fit in a circle better than these). I know people say that they will add heat, but I'm not really sure about the physics of that claim. But they heat up evenly and hold temperature nicely and also help minimize flame-ups. I also like that I can turn them over and cook with the flat side for fish, etc. Another trick is using them like a panini press.

I think it's the 8" Henkel's Chef's Knife Greg. It's Lu's and I think it's the 4 Star Series. I have a set of Henkels as well, but I believe mine are the International Classic Series.

I found a small, well-marbled chuck roast at the store so made some "Poor Man's Burnt Ends".
Off the smoker:

After some time back on the smoker in some sauce:

Lu's brother from Colorado is working on his rental property in Belleview before he heads to Panama, Costa Rica and Tahiti with his fishing business. He's been in lockdown for most of the past year, so he was ready to get away. And since most of his family in Colorado are vegetarians, Lu and I invited him to take a break this weekend and come up for MeatFest.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday breakfast was smoked Whole Hog Jalapeno Sausage, home cured bacon, eggs from a friends chickens and cheese grits.
Friday evening was Low 'n Slow Ribs, Saturday evening we cooked up about 5 pounds of Port St. Joe Honey Garlic Glazed shrimp (right off the boat) and some beautiful Filet Mignons (wrapped in home cured bacon of course).
Sunday was spent in a meat comma...
:-) :-)
Warren also brought a couple of bottles of rum that he picked up as he passed thru an ISOM before the Covid shutdown. He and Lu made some pretty nice Pina Caldas!

Not so much what's in my smoker, but what my smoker is in!
8 years, 3 states, 4 moves and a few hurricanes/tropical storms ago:

How it looked after taking the egg out, just fell apart and crumbled:

And the new home of my smoker:
