Spring Break Q (w/Pron)

[King]

I grilled and smoked a few things while I was on spring break last week. I thank the all the Bretheren for helping me improve my pit skills.

That Google search tool is a goldmine of information. Every question I ever had was already answered, but it's nice to know the Bretheren are still there ready to share their knowledge. Here we go....


Meatloaf with bacon weave. I used the meat loaf recipe off the back of the Progresso Italian Bread Crumb container.

I dusted it with Plowboys rub.

Smoked it with cherry and hickory at around 240 degrees until internal temp was 165. I finished it off with Three Little Pigs Huff and Puff competition BBQ sauce. It was delicious! My sons (1 & 2 yrs old) ate lots of it. I even got a compliment at work about the leftovers, it smelled so good.

I grilled some chicken thighs using Penzey's spices.

Two and half hours into smoking with cherry wood at 230 degrees. The Treet was not as good as I hoped. Then again I never liked Treet/Spam in the first place. Ah well, I gave it a shot.

BBR done! I had to pull it after 3.5 hours to eat with the rest of the family. One of the best ribs I smoked. It could have used another hour or two however.

Thanks everyone!

The meatloaf was my favorite too. It's a good thing I had more than what I needed, there is another 1.5lbs of it in the freezer.

I also got to mention I finished the ribs with Sticky Pigs Jalepeno Sauce. I love that stuff.

Give it a go...it's so easy.

Off topic...I grew up in RC, nice to see a former neighbor here. I went to Valle Vista Elementary, CJHS and Alta Loma HS (freshman yr only). I remember camping in Mt. Baldy, going to Quakes games and playing little league at Red Hill Park. Good times!
