BBQ Brethren "Let's Do the Tubesteak Boogie!" (Entries and Quality ON TOPIC *CLEAN* Discussion Only)

Accept this as my official entry into the sausage fest ... I mean Tubesteak TD

The inspiration of this post came from our honeymoon in Jamaica. The Bistro had a BBQ Hotdog, so this is my attempt to recreate it.

Here's theres ...

​

I took some unseasoned shoe string fries and covered them with Stubbs Chili Lime Spice Rub and Big Poppa Smoker's Bacon and Jalapeno Rub. The wife had some sweet potato fries.​




​




​




Last year we bought a "meat pack" from Meat Hub, and while I was searching for the fries I stumbled upon these Brats. I'd forgotten those were in the freezer (which is why I keep telling her we need to make an inventory list), so I pulled them out and thawed them out. Dawn stayed with her turkey dogs.​




I shredded fresh pepper jack cheese and added a little mozzarella to the mix. ​




​




​


We've started buying pigs when we go places (only if they're worth it), so this is the newest member to the family ... my wife named him ... BOB


​




​




Once the Bratwursts were cooked, it was time for assembly. The wiener went on the toasted bun, then some pulled pork in sweet BBQ sauce, and then the pepper jack and mozzarella cheese on top. ​




​

And the money shot ... ​

Homemade Sausage Stuffed Bread

My entry into the Tubesteak Boogie.
I'm wasn't going to submit this because I didn't like the space left after it cooked. However caseydog commented in the cook thread that this should be expected. You can check out the details in Q-Talk.

Thanks for looking.
 
Nice looking roll there Brady. I made some Italian Sausage the other day and it cracked in the middle when I smoked it. It didn't break the casing, it just split in half inside.????? Any ideas why? Not enough filling? Baffling me!

Hey HT that is a strange. I'm guessing you didn't see anything in your Charcuterie book. I can't say that I have seen that but there are a couple of things to consider. First would be the fat content of the meat. The fat acts like a binder not enough fat can lead to a crumbly texture. You can usually work around that by using a binder like non fat dry milk, soy protein, or rusk. The other thing is to be sure the meat is very cold when you process it to avoid fat smear. I hope you can figure it out.

Had my share of the Famous Chicago Hot Dogs, 2 with the works,with the dayglow green relish, and the seeded rolls on top of a pile of fries. I am not a fan of the Vienna Dogs. I like Beef/Pork in the natural casings, I want the snap. I'll take a Rawley's, Kuhns, Mikes Drivie inn (Stratford)or the Windmill's dogs.
