Title: Championship Weekend...What you cooking
Post by: Ron D on January 22, 2012, 12:02:32 PM
Plenty of good football today.....I hope.....Since it is just SWMBO and I we are making a big pot of Red Beans and Rice with Conecuh Smoked Sausage.

And my Super Bowl picks are....The 49's and the Pats.

I would love to see the Ravens win but I do not think they will.

I'm doing pulled pork for the Giants game today.  I put the pork butts on at 11:00 last night.

Here's how they looked at 9:30 this morning.

I'm gonna take them off the smoker in about an hour, wrap them in foil and put them in a cooler filled with towels.  They'll rest there until game time.

Well Smoke you just made me change my mind...still cooking the beans and rice but in the fridge they go for tomorrow...always better the next day anyway.

Just pulled 2 nice Porterhouse Steaks from the freezer to thaw, got a couple of taters in the fridge and some green beans.

I am on the ABP team...............(ANYBODY BUT the PATTYs)  Just kind of tired of looking at that crook of a coach they have. The guy has been caught twice video-ing his opponents practice sessions and stealing the other teams signals. Can't respect it. Dirty is dirty. Players, coaches - and we as fans have to hold a higher standard than that - and expect one another to adhere to it. If someone does not - then - they need to get the HECK out of the NFL.
Sorry to rant - I am just tired of seeing whiners, temper-tantrums, cheaters, and thugs take over the sport I love.

So....for the AFC - I hope it will be the Ravens. Plus, I like what John Harbaugh has done for them, and like his story, and philosophy.

And for the NFC -  I hope it will be the 49er's - mostly because they have been down for so long, and it's great to see a team on the comeback- and because - it would be really neat to see 2 teams - coached by .

Not cooking today - but working on a Super Bowl party menu, and several kinds of wings are on the list, along with a teriaki marinaded -smoked trout dip and a few other things I am working out....

Nice job Ron! How was the steak rub after cooking? I notice you went really light on it...Did it hold up to the direct grilling, andwa the taste present without being over-powering?

T, it was great...had a nice overall flavor and did not over power the meat. I went light to see just what it can do. I could use a little more on mine but Diana said hers was perfect and she rules. As you know I mostly use only EVOO, Sea Salt and White Pepper on my steaks but not now. I did not add any EVOO to this cook and your spice stuck to the meat, none left on the grate.
I did pat the spice in as I applied it.

Great! That is the one product that I thinkis the mosr under utilized. Maybe because it is green - tho, one would think green=fresh or green=naturals based on the currents trends.

Try rubbing some on a chicken and then cooking it. I think you will be surprised. Calling it a "steak rub" may be a mistake....still trying to figure that one out.
