Doing a little bit of traveling to SLC for work at our other office. Wanted do do bbq for them and one of our SLC guys cooks a little too so had access to his smaller traeger. But to cook for 40 it might not do the job so luckily he has a friend with another traeger to join the show. Staying at another buddy's where we took both the smokers. I’ll be the primary guy cooking on 2 cookers I’ve never used and I have around 100lbs of meat with 7 different kinds to toss on.
Also doing 4 sides for the party. I’m super psyched for tomorrow as my favorite thing is brand new stuff with lots of people to feed :becky:. Never cooked on a pellet smoker and still want one in my arsenal.
So here’s the deal so far……….
Finding a cup for the sauce
Picked up some of the meat the the SLC Restaurant Depot which is just as awesome as the ones in Atlanta but they had these awesome carts with 2 levels that we don’t normally have. Pretty sweet. Got a 18lb turkey, 20lbs of butts, 20lbs of spares and baby backs, 18lb brisket
Then we went to Costco and it is apparently one of the largest in the US and it was freaking huge. Super jealous of their meat selection as if my Costco in GA was like this I might not need RD. Full packers, Prime beef and tons of selection……And the capper was the beef ribs. I didn’t think I needed more food, but they had beef ribs so got 20lbs of that and about 5lbs of fish.
Here the shot of all the meat
Smokers picked up and setup for the morning
And got 3 of the 4 sides done tonight which are mac, pasta salad, coleslaw (no pics yet). Will do baked beans tomorrow. One of the macs got some dried jalapeno and ghost chili :-D
Not sure how the pellet cookers work, but going to roll hot and try to time all 7 meats to be done around the same time. I’ll be starting alone in the morning with my friend joining to help later on (he has kids so letting him sleep in). More to come tomorrow. Happy weekend!
