Since Sako has something up his sleeve, I'll use this for my opportunity to join the perfect zero club!

I was very disappointed in my final plate pictures, so please use this one as my entry pic.

The Squeeze Inn episode was the inspiration, cook thread here:

I say your final plate looks pretty dang good Terry. Not sure if my pics will come out as nice.

Regardless, that's an amazing entry. :nod:
 
We have an entry!!! YAY! Was planning on Hawaiian Smoke Meat, but life got in the way.

Sometimes I think this place should be called the Taco Brethren. I decided to lean in to it. I did Pork Sisig Tacos and Beef Bulgogi Tacos from these episodes.

All in all I was very happy with the results. I didn't have overnight for the marinades so I did them under vacuum which worked out fantastic. I didn't have Short Rib so I used Chuck Eye and am glad I did.
Both tacos got the same slaw of Napa cabbage, scallion, and cilantro. The Sisig got a little diced onion, diced fresh jalapeno, and cilantro crema. The Bulgogi slaw was dressed with Soy Lime dressing and topped with a bit of Sriracha. Definitely will do these again.

As far as the actual cook aspect. The Sisig was first grilled over KBB with a bit of Hickory, cooled, diced, and added to the secondary marinade. Then both meats were finished on the Blackstone.
