Title: What's your number 1 thing?
Post by: HoosierKettle on July 07, 2017, 11:00:13 AM
Probably the tastiest thing that comes off my kettle would be smash burgers. I hate to admit it because they don't take on smoke or grill flavor and could be cooked inside.

What's yours?

Those both sound great. I want to hear what others favorites are and make each one that I haven't made previously to expand my home menu.

What's your number 1 thing?

That's a very difficult question to answer @HoosierKettle !

I will answer with what I'd consider my favorite, that is also extremely quick, easy and enjoyed by almost everyone, kids included.

GRILLED

Ribeye Teriyaki Sticks, with sticky rice and homemade mac salad.

(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4005/34946156204_0f1ca8e0db.jpg)

BBQ

Pork Shoulder - Although not "quick", it doesn't require much prep and is a pretty predictable cook.

Better sear and more edge to edge. This is like butter.

This is fantastic. Keep it coming. This is like a wkc greatest hits for food. I asked my wife what her favorite things were and she said pork butt for BBQ and New York strip for grilled item. I'm definitely going to cook up some of the mentioned items on here that I haven't made yet. Cellar2ful I've only done roti turkey once but that is definitely one of my favorites as well.

New to this but have made these 3 times and every time they turn out great. This last time I threw in some poppers. The poppers needed to cook a bit longer but the apple wood smoke was a good choice.

@kemmons  ok. I gotta make some of that. I'm guessing: tenderloin, premade spin dip, bacon wrap, and brown sugar on top? Single layer of bacon? Have you tried a bacon weave on one which is essentially a double layer? That make it too salty if you have tried?

My go to is cedar plank salmon with dill aioli.

Some fine looking cooks from everyone.

I have to change my number 1 thing to pulled pork and home made Cole slaw. I make a basic Cole slaw but substitute Tony's seasoning for salt and pepper. Kicks it up a little. I also finish my pork with a dusting of rub and a few dashes of a vinegar sauce. The cold crisp texture of the slaw against the warm tender smoked pork and the tangy flavor of the vinegar sauce is pretty close to heaven.

I recommend making your own fresh slaw if you haven't. I discovered it late in life because I never thought I liked it. My mother would put raw onion in it and I hate raw onion in anything to this day. It finally occurred to me that I can make slaw without onion. [emoji12]

Try this y'all:

This is a rockin' slaw, straight off the Food Network website. Only thing different was instead of the sugar, add honey... personal taste.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 cups peeled, julienned jicama
1 cup, peeled, julienned carrots
1 cup shredded napa cabbage
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 cup julienned English cucumber
1/2 cup julienned red bell pepper
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped

Directions

In a small mixing bowl add lime juice, chili flakes, rice wine vinegar, sugar (or honey), and extra-virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and whisk to combine.

Combine the jicama, carrots, cabbage and onion, cucumber, red pepper and cilantro in large bowl and toss.

Add dressing to vegetables and let sit for 15 minutes, stirring 2 or 3 times.

Serve.

This is perfect in warm weather party situations... no mayo!

It is delish!

Just the bacon wrapped with jalapeño and cream cheese treatment.  We filet the breasts off the bone so you have two pieces of meat.  Take a slice of jalapeño a small piece of onion and a little cream cheese and sandwich between the meat and wrap in bacon.  I do them indirect pretty hot and usually baste with Tiger sauce at the end.   Only a few more days till season.  Shoot straight!

I will say that the guys at work love my pulled pork stuffed jalapenos with cream cheese, wrapped in bacon. I grill them the night before,  then take them to work the next day and heat them up in a toaster oven. And eat them around 8:30 in the morning... lol
