BBQ Brethren "I'd Hit That!" Throwdown

ecode · Mar 20, 2011

Ever since I saw this, I've wanted to taste one. This throwdown gives me an excuse to finally make one myself and give it a try. I began with some fresh beets (yes, beets!). I cleaned these up and threw them in the back of the smoker for an hour, wrapped in foil.

I also grilled up some pineapple rings

Any guesses yet? I also baked up some onion buns

Enough prep work. Now to the nitty-gritty. I mixed up some ground beef with minced onion, spices and Worcestershire

I formed up some patties, some big ones, and grilled away.

I also collected the necessary extras (including a fried egg, not shown)

and then assembled as best I could, an Aussie burger

and here they are side by side (I was thinking of this as the entry pick )

Here is a cross section:

Gore seemed to have trouble getting his mouth around his.

Thanks for looking!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you can quit your groveling now, Bill. It's not going to do you any good at all: I saw her first. She's mine. :boxing:

Wow, that is something I have always wanted to try also. But, not now.

LMAJ · Mar 21, 2011

That's crazy huge.

SmokinAussie · Mar 22, 2011

Well, here's my entry. This is the first time I ever did Tri-Tip. It has only just become available here through our first Australian Costco Store in Melbourne. I asked for a lot of advice, but previous entries and advice from Landarc were uppermost in my mind when prepping and Q'ing this dish.

The full thread is here.

My presentation of the dish is very differrent, but the prep and partial dry cure / brine was copied to some degree. The results were well worth it for the dish turned out fantastic.

Here's a pic after the marinade / cure.

The reverse sear...

The first cut! (Entry Shot Please!)

And served with peas and carrots, turkish roll with melted cheese, pasta salad...

Thanks to all, especially Landarc for the inspiration!

Cheers!

Bill

I'd hit that Bill!

landarc · Mar 22, 2011

Nice work Bill, although I prefer a little more moo be left in the beef

Groundhog66 · Mar 22, 2011

Time to find some inspiration :shock:

wormdrink67 · Mar 22, 2011

I took this one and ran with it from Emeril. Basically the only resemblance is that both of our salsa's have pineapple....the rest is imagination.

The image consists of the following: Pan seared shrimp lightly tossed in cilantro oil bedded on pineapple and jalapeno salsa, surrounded by a kolkata wrapper fried in the shape of a bowl. Its name: Kolkata Shrimp with Pineapple Melang'e

here's a link to where the "inspiration" came from. Thanks, hope you enjoyed.

Man alot of great entree's! Since I got my butt kicked last one(Nice job Jason!), I need some inebreation inspiration!

I saw the Pepper Stout beef found here http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=94382 posted by Vince some time ago and have been meaning to make it so with this throw down I thought it would be the perfect time.

First I started with the Chucky

When it got to 165 I put it in the pan with Bell Peppers,Japs,onions and Garlic and added the Guiness covered and put back in the ProQ and cranked up the heat to 350

After it got to 195 I broke it up and took the top foil off and put it back in the smoker to reduce.

Once the Beer reduced I broke it up more and stirred in the veggies

I added a little touch myself by making a sauce of Pepper Jack Cheese and some Adobo and drizzled a little on top.

I am glad I made this as it had a lot of flavor even my wife said I need to make this dish again. So this is my entry

landarc · Mar 22, 2011

Man, that sure looks good, nice riff with the sauce too.

SmokinOkie · Mar 23, 2011

My first throwdown entry, hope you'll want to hit these:

Entry picture is the last one. I didn't have time to plate these, I was making these for a Brisket 101 class so I hope you want knock me down for that

So, love my MOINKS
Love my Burnt Ends.
Anyone ever combined them?

Still working on the name, BEINKS, BOINKS...

bigabyte · Mar 23, 2011

Man....bacon wrapped burnt ends. I have now seen the ultimate combination.

Smokey Al Gold · Mar 23, 2011
