Back from NC...dont view when hungry

[motley que]

After 8 Days in Topsail Island, I am back in my own bed. My wifes family does an annual reunion there and we rent a large house and hang out and eat. my job is to cook most of the dinners and appetizers ala guac, abt, pig kisses etc. I cooked all week on 1 bag of rancher, including an 8 hour cook of a butt and 5 days of abt's, Drink of the week was Margaritas, followed by Peach and/or Strawberry moonshine (thanks uncle marker) and beer

I didnt take pics of my kabobs marinated in a Korean style Bulgolki marinade. We went through a 4lb pack of costco bacon in a week...MMM

so here we go...

I just ate, and I'm still hungry after your pics! That is just beatiful!
How did the fillets come out? Can you share your technique?

 

[qman]

nice, motley, very nice. Just goes to show what a real cook can do, even with minimal equipment.

Of course, I did not heed your warning and looked at this while hungry.
NOW I AM FAMISHED.

Motley, That is great looking and good to see you can do butts on a regular kettle style grill/pit. That is what I am using for now, how long did that one take?

Looking good Motley, Topsail is my first choice when we go to the beach, I like it on the island.
