somebody shut me the fark up.
It's been a busy weekend. It's nice to finally have a day at home with the family.
Started the day with a little baking therapy.
Browned off a couple of slices of fatty. Fried up an egg, and hit it with some cheese.
Took care care of the ladies' breakfasts, then got down to business for the day.
With all of JasonTQ's discussion of corned this and that (and the fact that I need to build space in the deep freezer), I decided to make pastrami.
I'd recently found a Half-Price Sale on Corned Brisket flats, and I also decided to try my hand at a light corning/brining of some baby backs (only had 1 overnight in the brine due to my crazy schedule). Cut the rack in half, so we'd also have some more traditional-style ribs if the pastrami-d ribs don't work out.
I hit those with a pastrami rub off ThirdEye's Pastrami webpage.
I hit the other half-rack of baby backs with our Wicken Yanks Original... hadn't used this in a LONG time.
Smoker's starting up. It's bloody hot out there. Cold seltzer and Mexican beer in the fridge for hydration.
More to follow.
