New BBQ Pitmasters ~ Kentucky Style ~ At The Top Of The Hour

[thirdeye]

... on Destination America.

I know, I know..... the game is on, and it's all but tied. Well,... there is a replay later tonight. My times are 7PM (Mountain) for the first run, and 10PM for the replay.

Will mutton be involved?

 

[DubfromGA]

DVR is set.


Gotta watch the game.


Besides, I'm still stuffed from dinner and dessert. I feel like I'll burn more calories watching NFL than grill masters at work. :becky:

 

[thirdeye]

Derby Pie? Nah, not on a pit....

 

[thirdeye]

Oh my rod..... it is mutton, and a side of ham. :wink:

 

[Boshizzle]

Nice! I'm looking forward to the ham and mutton cooks! Something different for a change.

 

[thirdeye]

Two strange pits??? I hope they practiced some. Can you say grease fire? Heheheee.

 

[Boshizzle]

Look at that freaking knife! And, he broke it! :laugh:

 

[thirdeye]

They must have super sized turn in boxes for those ribs.... boy, a Wyoming Saw would have fetched a pretty penny I bet.

 

[WineMaster]

Wooops 500

I'm late to the party tonight. Any Brethren on?

Its called TV. They were cooking that meat the night before they even "unveiled" what they were cooking.

We don't get much mutton in these parts never had it or cooked it.

Actually, mutton was first cooked in Kentucky by Virginians. Two Virginia families moved west to Kentucky and cooked a mutton served with peach syrup in 1805. They were the families of Abraham Lincoln's parents. BBQ mutton was the meat served at Abraham Lincoln's parent's wedding. Until 1792, Kentucky was actually Kentucky County, VA.

How exactly does this article prove that this was the first time ever that mutton, or "sheep", was cooked in what is now known as Kentucky?

 

[Boshizzle]

It proves that it's the oldest first hand account of it happening in an affidavit.

Uh the scots and welsh settled into KY long before 1805. I assure you sheep and whiskey were integral parts of the landscape by then.

Something I haven't heard mentioned yet. K.I.S.S. stole the show! NO RUB, NO INJECTIONS just Heat & Meat with a simple sauce. Even Mr 200 step process Mixon was impressed. Makes me wonder what if all competitors on the various circuits developed that same attitude toward turn ins.......?
