G'Day Bruces'
This is the first time I've started a 'Q thread without the whole thing in the can. But this is going to be my first ReALLY long cook, so now I unnerstand why some members do it this way..
SO, just prep tonight. I got a Chuckie from my meatatarium @ about 13.5lb. Not huge, but big enough for this.
This pic is the chuckie in the vac pac with spices and ingredients for the injection. Note the Casabel's and Chiltepins from Smoke Jumper
Next, this is a great Australian Stout. Gives Guiness a fright! My main ingredient for the injection! Oh, and the rub for later is shown here... sent by Smoke Jumper!
Beautiful Colour here in Smoke Jumpers Chilies. These were pounded with some Chinese Szechuen Peppercorns
Stout, Brown Sugar, Spices, Muscat... an injection reduction from Heaven!
Here's the Chuckie ready for injection, and the injectate being strained on the side.
Injecting took some time as most of it runs out to the bottom of the pan. I just kept pumping it back in and turning the Chuckie... let it run out... inject again! So here it is looking pretty damn injected...
And the last shot for now... I mopped out the last of the injectate from the pan and used paper towels to dry the surface of the chucky so that could dust with a bit of Simply Marvellous Cherry Rub... again, supplied my Smoke Jumper!
It's looking good to me. Now it's in the fridge. Time is 11pm Friday night here. I'll be getting up tomorrow and starting this before I do anything else.
More to come..:thumb:
Cheers!
