Well, I didn't order the new recteq pellet grill like I had hoped on black friday. Their sale was pathetic. Apparently everyone has been willing to spend $1700 on a grill because they have had a record sales year. They were giving a free competition cart with their smaller grill, which is what I was hoping for the big one, actually I was just hoping for a half price cart. Then for the 700 model which I was planning on buying they were giving away a free wok cooker thing. Sorry, I'm not standing outside cooking with a wok, just not happening. Based on the negative replies on facebook, there were a lot of unhappy people that had held off thinking this years sale would be like the previous years. They still sold out the first day of the sale so they don't care what is said. Of course I got the replies to my comment that I wasn't allowed to complain.

Well, I tried a different way of cooking for the pellet grill. I've cooked pork butt on there once for around 12 hours or so and it was good tender wise but it just didn't have enough smoke flavor. This time I cooked them for 10 or so hours on the stick burner since I already had it going for a brisket. Then moved them over to the pellet grill for 4 or 5 more hours. It tasted so much better smoke wise.

Did a sous vide followed by ice bath overnight and smoke for 5 hours the next day brisket flat. This has been my new favorite way to do brisket. I need to try it with a while packer next time.

I'm a big fan of sous vide but never considered doing a brisket that way. Thanks for the tip!

Did my first skirt steak for fajitas today.

 

[Reef-junky]

SS from last year (use it all the time).

Thanks who ever gave it to me!

 

[Reef-junky]

Had to play with my new SS lights as well.

 

[Reef-junky]

Broke out the sear grill to finish the steak off.

For flank steak for tacos and fijitas its all about the marinade.
I like to marinade it in a cilantro marinade.
Tequila, water, fresh chopped cilantro, salt, cumin, garlic either a clove or granulated, lime juice, worcestershire sauce, olive oil.

I also use eye of the round sliced thin instead of flank sometimes.



We actually bought a wok for the weber this year and did fajitas vegies that way. All peppers straight from the garden.

This summer it was all about the weber and not as much about the pellet grill. We did some stuff on the wok. Allot of whole chicken and turkey breasts, wok cooking and allot of cast iron pan cooking on the Weber. Allot of back to basics.

Eggs and hash browns in a skillet with peppers is amazing on a grill.

Next summer I want to get a drum smoker. They have a pit barrel mini I want.

I am going to have too many grills.

I kid...

I also need to replace my gas grill... I use the gas more in winter, it rarely comes out in the summer.

I’m the same way, although my Kamado gets used the most year round. The propane grill gets the really cold weather duty.
I may get an offset stick burner but not sure why I need it since I have the pellet smoker.
But... that hasn’t stopped me before!

I thought about a offset but I like my pellet grill allot. Plus they are big and I put all my grills in the garage and they require allot more attending to which I really do not have the time for. I might eventually but it would have to stay outside. The mini barrel is kind of a compromise. It mainly is two of now so I do not need anything huge anymore.

Basically Pellet grill for the slow cook, Weber for hot and fast, and the gas for winter.

I’ll have to try that. I have a cast iron pan but I didn’t use that for the steak I cooked it whole then cut it up.

I begged and put on my best puppy dog sad face but got the stern NO from the wife!!!!!

It is a lot easier to hide a $200 coral

Skillet was for the skillet meals with hashbrowns, peppers, onions eggs etc.

I did the same for the fajitas cooked it whole and sliced thin. Skillet would not be a bad idea though.

We like trying allot of different stuff. You can only do so much pork butts, ribs etc.

We did a few pizzas on cast iron.

We did stir frys in the wok on the Weber.

We are always looking for different stuff to cook on a grill or smoker. We just love grilling and doing as much as we can.

Might try some smoked cheese this winter. Looking at smoking sausages next year and jerky.
Want to try some cornbread on the grill.

We are trying allot more stuff with vegetables and eat a little more healthy.
