Burgers with Naturiffic W-Salt. The cast iron insert for the Weber Kettle really lets you get a nice crust. These were good on the Hawaiian Sweet Buns.

Big cook yesterday so today I’m cleaning up.  Had our annual Brisketfest party to celebrate the end of the school year and beginning of summer. I also made some wings for my lunch as I was working. Burnt Ends, both Sweet and Superhot, Smoky Beans, ABTs and Bacon Candy (used the bacon I made for both of those), and some Red Hot Sausages. 

 

Got a few steps in. Nice side benefit of these cooks is that my pit is a few feet from my shop so when I’m in there it smells like Q for a few days. Now to start projects!  And practice for the competition my new BBQ team is doing in July. Hmmm, might have to cook a whole bunch of ribs and briskets to practice.

two questions-

1) Is it good woodworking technique to select your wood species based on whether you can use the scrap / mistakes in your smoker?

2) Do you tend to make more mistakes because you know you can just throw it on the smoker pile?

Begin the  discussion.

Both seem reasonable to me :)

1. I will admit it has some factor. I typically use my handplane shavings to light the coals with a chimney. I had one time where i wasn't paying attention to the species i used when i lit the coals and everything came off tasting like chemicals.

2. I won't make more mistakes but i feel less wasteful bad chopping it to pieces and throwing it in my to the grill pile.

Nice joint ! Old PT you just happened to have weathering just in case ?

Yes. I started my deck reno last summer, but never finished the railing. Original plan was to make a step-down to a lower section, but weather turned nasty, and I never finished. We changed our minds when summer rolled around, and decided to just rail it off, no second level. So, I had a 2x6 leftover from last summer, all ready to go 'round the corner.
