SPECIAL - BBQ Brethren "Noobians vs. Veterans" Throwdown!!!

What's the story on multiple entries guys?
Now calm down, you know what I mean, offerings that fit into two categories, can my go-to-meal also be entered in the "Kick Arse-Kiss Arse War between the brothers Noob and Vets?
What say you, rulers of conflict and mayhem?
 
Buccs, I went back to the beginning of the thread to read the rules, not wanting to give bad advice, and found what you want on Page 10 -- posting #138. My problem is that while I was reading posts showing how the rules were evolving I quoted them -- reached a threshold of quoted posts leaving no room for the one to answer your question. I pulled up different windows, logged off twice, went to the kitchen and made us Dark'n'Stormies and still the thread remembers what I quoted before I logged off. Great talent but not what I wanted. Can you quote the post and bring it into our discussion/view? Hopefully deleting those now unwanted posts and putting this in instead will "clear my board". :oops:
 
ATTENTION ALL!!!

In order to generate more attention, and to help each team gather as many entries as possible...

MULTIPLE ENTRIES ARE ALLOWED FOR THIS TD ONLY!!!

Now get cooking you farkity farkanauts...oh, and you Kathy!
When you are done, vote for Buccs!!!
okay, I may have farked with the quote...but only a little...:wink:
 
Official Entry

Please accept this an official entry in the "Noobians vs. Veterans" throwdown.

The noobs have been pretty quiet lately. I suspect they're trying to lull us old farkers to sleep (it doesn't take much to do that).

Well, I'm not going to fall for it (in other words, better post this stuff before my nap).

I had a busy multi-cook day yesterday but prepared another brisket bomb for the Noobian horde:

And in the interest of keeping Farkanaut defenese expenses down, I launched some low cost munitions (tri-tip, bread, corn casserole, & peaches):

Poor Noobs.
Pork loin went on special down here, $8 per kilo so:
Pork Loin Rolled,boneless.
300grams table salt
1 tsp Star Anise
2 tsp ground white pepper
1Tbs allspice
1tsp Five Spice Powder
2 tsp fennel seeds
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cardamom

(If only retail commercial brands are accessible, use grapeseed oil instead.)
Vegetables.
Baby onions
Kipfler potatoes
Head of garlic
Cabbage
-----------
Salted Butter
Balsamic vinegar
Sea salt
Pepper
----------------
Score pork skin well with a knife.
Toast whole spices and grind, mix well with salt in a bowl.
Rub over pork and wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
Wash salt off pork and dry well with paper towels, then put onto a wire rack over a dish and place in refrigerator for another 6 hours or overnight.

Baby onions topped and tailed and a cross cut in the root end, just 1/4 of an inch deep.
Leave skin on.
Separate a head of garlic into individual cloves, skin on.

Slice cabbage into inch wide slices, core removed.

Heat BBQ to 160C/320F and place pork onto a trivet in a baking tray and rub skin with EVOO and dust with a sprinkling of the spiced salt.
Place baby onions and garlic into tray and toss in EVOO.
MoransPorkintoBSK.jpg

Place tray into BBQ and cook for 45 minutes.
Check garlic and remove if done, turn onions and check internal temperature.
Our target is 50C/120F.
While this step is taking place, parboil potatoes in their skins for 15-20 minutes until just tender.

Cool and remove skins and slice into thick chunks and oil and salt.

Once the pork Internal Temperature of 50c?120F is reached, increase temperature of BBQ to 250C/500F.

(At this point, resuscitation may be necessary for American BBQers, but trust Bucc here and do it.)
The vegetables should be removed at this juncture, they should be done.
MoransPorkBSK.jpg

Keep warm in warmer.
Place potatoes into oil in the pan under the pork and cook until pork reaches and internal temperature of 72C/160F-75C/167F if you like medium pork.

Pull and rest, the temperature will reach about 80C/175F.
MoransPorkresting.jpg

Peel the garlic and the onions and plate , and if you like use one onion and 3 mellow garlic to blend with the pan juices to make your gravy.
Sieve for finest results with gravies.
MoransPorktemp.jpg

Cabbage: Place into a saucepan with one centimetre of water, a thumb size piece of butter, a drizzle of EVOO and balsamic vinegar, a pinch of sea salt and white pepper and cook on high heat covered for 3 minutes, or until just tender.
Strain and serve, pouring over a little of the cooking liquid if desired.
Please use this as my money shot

My official Noobian entry!

OK Here is my official entry!

I bought 2 catfish fillets from the store. I had some little aluminum pans in the cabinets. So I put one in each pan, rubbed them down with olive oil and a lemon and herb rub, then I put a little bit of Tallgrass's Halcyon wheat. Then I let them marinate a little while the smoker came up to temp and everything. While I was getting the smoker ready my wife rubbed some corn down with butter and S&P and then wrapped the husks back over them to cook with the fish.

2012-08-18_17-09-32_249.jpg


when the smoker got up to about 200 I threw the fish and corn on with some apple wood chunks. I didnt get any mid cook pictures because I got busy drinking beer and talking with neighbors...:mod:.

I took them off after about 2.5-3 hours when it started to flake. After removing the husks from the corn I plated it all up (which I actually got pictures of this time!).

The fish must of been the best food I have smoked so far. I think I will be doing this cook again very soon! Thanks to Kickassbbq for the great recipe I found on this site!!!

An Official Entry for the Noobian alliance

Bacon Wrapped Venison Fatty

Here is the break down on the cost. My receipt shows $18.27 , however I did not use everything pictured or on the receipt. I did not use the Hot Cereal or Lucinda's Basil Leaves and I purchased two Green peppers but only used one. Total deductions 18.27 - 5.29 = 12.98. Now add in the venison cost. A buddy of mine drove his truck, used his gas, his gun, and his rounds. Harvested a buck and we agreed to split the processing fees. We paid 75.00 for 60 - 1.lb packages of ground meat and sausage. Comes to 1.25 / .lb. and I used only 2/3 of each package for this meal. Comes to $ .84/package a total of $1.68. Now 12.98 +1.68=14.66. Pics to follow later, once I download them. :grin:
