Food Network Butts

[Bigdog]

I was watching Emeril L. on the food network the other day, and was apalled. Here is this famous chef, well paid, supposedly an expert, cooking a butt on a gas grill. I use the word cooking, because it was not really smoking in my book. He only cooked it for about 4 hours, and it had no visible smoke ring. It was very white and looked dry. This is nothing like the smoked "butter" butts that most of us produce. Our butts are pink with a smoke ring and lots and lots of juice. There was no way for him to "pull" it as we do. Instead he cut it with a knife, and then tried to shred it with his fingers. It was far from what I get when I pull one. He finished it by drowning it in BBQ sauce. Good thing, it was so dry it needed the moisture. Too bad they try to demonstrate this art with someone who obviously does not know **** from Shineola. :x He should stick to the cooking that he knows and leave the Q for those of us who know what we are doing. No wonder so many people don't know real Q form the crap these phonies make. :x :x

Coming soon: The Bandera Brethern cooking show. Real Q by real people who know what the fark they are doing; Sponsored by Bigmista Tours. We say: If you miss the cruise, you loose. 8)

When I first saw the topic, my thought was "I'm kind of partial to Rachel Ray's butt..."

By far the best butt that I have seen on the Food Network IMHO. :D Now had I wanted this thread to be about her, the title would have been something more like: Baby Got Back. :wink:

Why not - She's NOT hot. Looks likes a plain Jane midwestern belle to me.

I watched Wolfgang Puck destroy three racks of ribs and a butt on the food network. I agree, these haute cuisine mavens should stick to pate de boot liquer and leave the Q'in to the rednecks and redneck wannabes.

How good do you think those BBR were cooked for only 1 hour on a gas grill? :cry: Even our gasser friends know enough to turn the heat down and cook them low and slow.

Ah, but how long did he boil them?

It broke my heart to watch the Navy Chef's cookoff on the Stenis the other night on either Discovery or TLC. They did fine with the fancier stuff (they really did great considering fine dining is NOT what most Navy cooks deal with) but when they had part II of the contest and did BBQ(?) for the steel beach party I cringed when all the teams boiled the chicken AND the ribs. Then cooked them over charcoal.

Man, I wish the Brethren could be a part of some of these things.
