Title: Porkapalooza! Lotsa pics (you know you like'em!)
Post by: RG on July 02, 2017, 06:14:37 PM

Today was a good day for cooking. Stephanie wanted to try something new on the KBQ so I cut her up some wood and let her have it!

She bought a Duroc pork belly the other day and she let me have some of it for making bacon (begrudgingly) and the rest went to making pork belly burnt ends and she wanted to do a "Texas" style smoked pork belly with just Kosher Salt and Coarse Pepper. To round out the pork feast, I prepped up a rack of Baby Backs and made a tray of ABTs. The ABTs got smoked on the Traeger and the belly, ribs and burnt ends went on the KBQ. Here is my story in pictures :)

The Plate - "You want sides with that?" The only side was ABTs :P

All of it was really good but those Burnt Ends were REALLY good! We are in a meat coma, too full of Fine Swine to move, we literally pigged out. Then there are those dang cinnamon rolls in the kitchen begging for my attention. I think I need to go for a ride on the scooter to get away, lol!

Oh ya.  That's how it's done right boys and girls.  1st class all the way.  Love the sides. The color on those ribs is fantastic.
