What did everyone cook today?

I finally used the Pa’s Black Bull soluble. I picked up some bone-in 2 inch thick pork chops (Pig Porterhouses) and injected them with the Pa’s last night. They marinated all night and I did a reverse sear on them for dinner. They were smoked at 225 for close to 2 hours until the IT was 120, then seared until the IT was 145. They had a little smoke ring and were juicy, so the end product was fantastic. I roasted some fresh asparagus with parmesan cheese, garlic and drizzled it with brown butter. I decided to add some starch at the last minute, so the baked beans were canned Bush’s. It was a great meal on a cold rainy day.
GWG8541 fantastic

GWG8541 We weren’t suppose to have rain since I was pouring a small concrete slab this morning, but just after we got poured the sun went away and the sky opened up. Scrambled for the tarp and blocking. Got it covered and the sun came back out an hour later, pulled the plastic, troweled the raindrops out and went in to sit and wouldn’t you know an hour later we had hail. Tarped again till this afternoon and steel troweled again. Weather people, the only job where you can be right 50% or less and still keep your job. Of course we did get to 50 degrees at least and my neighbor had a nice fire going in his fire pit.

GWG8541 nice looking meal, especially the chops.

GWG8541 Went out and pulled the tarp when the sun finally showed and did a finish trowel, looks good. Will pull forms tomorrow if it is not raining or at least not pouring and get the slab curing. Got to drill for 3 lags, but that will come in a week or so when it’s partially cured. I was going to put studs in, but didn’t want problems trying to set a generator on the studs with my tractor.

Ribs, pulled pork, creamy corn casserole, and some other fixings.

johnsbrewhouse yeah buddy. Think it may be time to upsize.

Surg Looks like party time, the meal looks great. Corn casserole is a favorite in our household and a staple. My mom had her recipe and passed it on to everyone in the family.

johnsbrewhouse man don’t know much about concrete but I have to re-set a basketball hoop that’s off square. Gonna start doing some research but I think I’ll have to pull up the old slab and anchor, and drop a new form tube.

Surg I’ve poured a lot of concrete in my time. My dad had us mix concrete in a dishpan and we poured and entire patio. Young and dumb. I have a mixer now. I buy sand and gravel mixed then bags of portland cement. You can buy the premix and mix it in a wheelbarrow, takes a bit longer but works. My only recommendation if you use that method is to buy a concrete mixing hoe. It has holes in it and makes mixing a whole lot easier. I’ve mixed a lot in the wheelbarrow too before the mixer.

gus4416 after tasting on the fish, that will be next. I would probably add panko still for more crunch.

Fry it twice as Chinese food. Fry it the first time at a lower temp to a light color and put it on paper towels to cool a little then heat the oil to the smoke point and fry it again to a nice golden color and you will have the most crispy texture ever.

Tex_77 That is what I call a fire but I got a guestion for you Tex I am making Braun’s tomorrow I have the Philly steak seasoning from Walton’s going to put cheddar cheese in them got it from Walton’s what do you use for liquid to stuff them in casings

what do you use for liquid to stuff them in casings
You can add up to 10% liquid to any sausage and typically it makes for a better final product, but water, beer, beef, chicken, or pork stock make wonderful additions.
