Great caramelization on those "chunks of meat"  ...  that had to taste fantastic.

Great cooks. What is the recipe for "Hasselback tatters?" I would also ask about your terrific butcher so that I could shop there, but...

Awesome looking cooks!
 How that homemade vortex working out for you, especially with wings?

Vortex is running well so far. After smoking the wings for a while, I charred them up right over the heat when I put in the centre section. I think it's a winner.

I'm not even sure if that's the right term for them.

I started with slicing the potatoes nearly all the way through. I used a pair of chopsticks on either side to stop the knife going all the way through.

They were cooked indirect for about an hour. Then I rubbed on my own garlic and herb butter. Making sure to get it in the crevices. And cooked a bit more to crisp up a bit with the butter.

Then some strips of bacon were wedged in there. And I covered them with some grated Colby cheese.

Served up with a scoop of salsa, (mild or hot depending on your taste) and a dollop of sour cream on the side.

Easy peasy. [emoji14]

Oh boy. Did they ever.

You'll note that in one picture,  I'm searing a steak over the coals. And the other in the Lodge. I heard someone say that searing on steel to seal the entire surface works well so I tried it.

Guess what? The steak seared in the pan tasted creamier/richer than the one over coals. Not that the one over coals was bad just that the other was better.

Jocool! 

I noticed you were absent for awhile, good to see you posting again.  You certainly came back in a big way - those "tomahawk" steaks look great.  Chicken, potatoes, ribs, steak - a nice set of cooks you have there.

Pan seared vs. grill seared ... I've found that the pan fried has a touch less "outdoor" flavor that the direct grill searing.  But, it does seal in much of the juice ... a well known concept to Julia Child :)   Never tried pan-sear followed by grill cooking to completion, but that's 'cause I couldn't wait to eat the steak ;D                 SJ
