wings

BossLady wanted Thai Green Curry wings. I was thinking something along the lines of Nando's Peri-Peri. This Vortex is perfect. Interesting how the thickness and thermal mass of this 26 inch kettle is significantly larger than her 22 inch cousin. Nearly time to pull, sauce, and devour.

It's Sunday. That makes it the day for Wings & Football in our house. It's nice to finally be back here again. Wicken Yanks Smoked Buffalo & Momma's Homemade Jamaican Jerk on the menu. Munchkin had 2 wings split and coated with SPOG. Hit the Future Jamaican Jerk w/ SPOG before grilling...

As I mentioned yesterday, CINCHOUSE had me whip up a batch of "Rocket Around the Christmas Tree Sauce" from a recipe I last used in 2012 to feed the people of Wicken, East Cambridgeshire, UK. I used all 4 Scotch Bonnets I had on-hand... and we wished for more. Must be a weak harvest this...

It's been a thoroughly relaxing weekend out here in the middle of nowhere. Broke out a rack of spares, hit 'em with Wicken Yanks Original Dry Rub and John Henry Pecan before they took a trip to the 22.5 kettle for the afternoon over apple. - The flavors brought back memories of lots of fun with...

Happy Monday, Pholks! Enjoyed some PTO/Leave this weekend. Early show tomorrow after a busy weekend. Started the weekend off right with a tribute to "The Few" in the RAF who held that country together by the skin of their teeth in Jul-Aug-Sep 1940. Decided to break out the homemade Trompo...

Long Weds saw us make it ALL the way back to NM from Hawai'i on one tank of gas. Made it home before the end of my 20th Anniversary, and awoke to deliver presents to our beloved Munchkin. It's not every day that Daddy comes home with a new Hawai'ian dress and a new stuffed turtle named Pono...

Happy Phriday, Pholks! Ongoing thread throughout the weekend. Phreezer Dive is complete. CINCHOUSE has been asking for some Buccs' Thai-Inspired Ribs. I've had a hankerin' for some barbacoa, a la SteveKing. I also found a JD Hot chub in the freezer, so I can "refill" my fatty supply for a...

Spent an uneventful time at home watching it rain outside most of the weekend. The one thing we could do was prepare for the Super Bowl. What goes good while watching a football game? Wings & Thangs of course. I’ve made these Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings and Buffalo Chicken Potato Skins before...

Had serious plans to take part in the First SW Brethren Bash.... but Uncle Sam had other plans. Yep. To assuage my pain, I've decided to cook up a batch of wings. Momma asked for another round of Nando's Peri-Peri wings, and I've had a hankerin' for some Korean-flavored wings. It's not...

Yesterday evening, until about 0300 this morning was a light show of sorts. The folks up around Hereford and Amarillo dealt with severe thunderstorms and tornadoes that formed just NE of our place. (SDAR - you folks fare OK!?) I fought through the mess to get dinner on the table: Sunday Night...

Ever since CINCHOUSE discovered Ethiopian Chicken, we've tried Berbere spice on our bird. Wikipedia says "Berbere is a spice mixture whose constituent elements usually include chili peppers, garlic, ginger, basil, korarima, rue, ajwain or radhuni, nigella, and fenugreek. It is a key ingredient...

It's been a glorious day of NFL action around our place. I watched all the action from the first games, then flipped on the CAR vs DAL game as I started working on dinner. CINCHOUSE requested Thai Curry Wings. Uhm, yes please! Thrilled to discover that I still have a couple of packs of Green...

Oh, Lord... Shadow's cooking wings yet again... Yep. It's happening. CINCHOUSE spoke and asked that we split tonight's offerings into thirds: - Thai Red Chile (Sauce from back in June) - Gold Star Chicken (couldn't help myself, with all the praises heaped on this stuff) - Nando's Hot Peri-Peri...

Yes, it's another installment in this summer's "Blazin' Sunday" series with temps hot enough that our munchkin couldn't stand to get on the swings or slide down the slide at the playground :sad: We've retreated to the relative comfort of overhead ceiling fans and cold beverages and naps (for...

With CINCHOUSE still on the mend, we didn't make it to the Cannon AFB Airshow today, but the grub we made in the process made up for it. Thanks to T. Mac and his "Latin Wings" Recipe for continued tranquility and deliciousness 'round our place. I zipped down to the Commissary and picked up a...

Good things ahead.

I had a hankering for some Wings and Thangs so I searched the internet for a good appetizer to go with wings. I came up with one from “Tasty” on YouTube. I started out with the potato skins as they took the longest. Here are the ingredients: 4 medium large (or 8 smaller) Russet...

Bosslady wanted brisket (and I didn't want to wrestle the one out of the deep freeze and try to thaw it). We compromised on beef short ribs. A deeper trim than I've had to do before, and a good application of Adkins made this plate ready for the sauna. Next thing I know, I've got a John...

So, I've clogged up your Interwebs enough this weekend... but this one is too good not to share. Momma's had a hankerin' for some Korean "Kimchi Wings" and some Nando's wings. I know I've posted this before, and I wish I had the reference, but I don't. This is approx 10 years old, but it's...

I'm breaking in the new smoker today. Threw on a chuck roast this morning to make some"poor man's burnt ends". Also cooking some pork tenderloin and wings later. I started a feeder fire to help avoid dirty smoke and temp drop offs. It's worked great so far. Using oak and hickory splits. Any...
