What did everyone cook today?
-
lkrfletcher and Surg Ive been on a shrimp kick too! Love a scampi like shrimp dish! Trying to get better at scallops but they are pretty delicate and are easy to overcook.
Jonathon it was after watching either Gordon Ramsay or Kenji Lopez-alt, or a combo that I finally nailed the scallops. Curious how they would be cooked sous vide. I know the shrimp I’ve done that way came out perfect but the scallops need a nice sear in my opinion.

Surg I agree. Cook close to temp and then sear.

Cooked various style bacon all day.
Did a separate write up with a lot of blah blah numbers blah, just to get all the times and temps down in writing before I forget everything I read lol.

Tex_77 I wish she was, but no not at this time. Maybe I can get the recipe from her one of these days and market it. It had such a brighter color and fresher smell than the commercial blend that I tried on the other butt.

gus4416 No fat trimming, no trimming at all , in fact. The fat cap is down in both pictures. I smoked them with the fat down. I took them out of their packaging, rubbed with mustard and dry rub, wrapped them in plastic wrap and let them “dry brine” over night in the fridge. Smoked at 250F-ish to around 200F IT when the probe would go in with little to no resistance. No foil wraps or butcher paper or anything while they cooked, just let them ride. Foil wrap when I pulled them off, then wrapped them in old towels and placed them in a faux cambro (cooler) until it was time to eat. I believe I took them off around 2pm and we ate at 5:30, still nearly too hot to pull by hand when coming out of the cambro. I make a concoction that I have termed “Butt Juice” that I add after it is pulled. It is essentially a vinegar sauce…melted butter, vinegar, sugar and a spice blend.
I believe I originally found the “butt juice” recipe as a sliced pork shoulder dipping sauce. It was pretty spicy in it original form so I toned it down a little bit in this adaptation.

RafterW thanks I need to try cooking butts fat cap down I never have done that and thanks for yor dipping sauce
gus4416 If you’d like the recipe for the sauce, I’d be happy to share. Its pungent so a little goes a long ways. I don’t have an exact amount/lb of meat but I would estimate that I use around 1/2 to 3/4 cup per pan. I just taste it as I incorporate. I usually pull pork in a metal, deep lipped, 9x13 pan.
