Foodies BS Thread.

^^^Yah mon, I hear you tomorrow we are visiting a dairy cow farm and then we are going to the creamery where they turn the milk into ice cream.... thats right folks I said fresh ice cream from the cows I fed at the farm.... nothing is fresher then that!!!!

 

Good stuff.

I amazed my wife one time by making butter out of whipping cream in a martini shaker.

Science! ...kinda.

I remember my grandma making butter out of cream we bought from a local guy with a dairy cow. My grandpa loved drinking the buttermilk.

 

Something good is about to be made...

 

Teriyaki lime chicken!!! Nom nom nom nom ....

 

Looks great Curt!! ^^^

 

I just put about 30 lb or pork ribs on the smoker. The 2 racks combined in the smoker doesnt quite fit so I have about 20 feet of foil that I am using to wrap the top rack since the lid doesnt fit. I am sure it is going to come out good but what a site. It looks like a UFO landed in the backyard. Pics to come when the sun comes up.

 

Here are some of the pics, all 45 lb of ribs are done. That smoker did a good job getting them all cooked. Lunch will be around 2 ish. The finishing touch is going to be some bbq sauce and onto the grill low and slow to get them glazed up nice.

Here is the chimney doing some work, the coals were super hot today. It was nice seeing them glow since it was so dark out....






Here is the wrap job to keep some of the smoke in, the ribs were flowing over the edge pretty bad so I had to come up with something. The good thing about this set up was that I couldnt mess around and look at the meat as it was cooking. It went almost 4 hours before I took a peak. I just kept the fire hot and a nice seal with the foil.

 

Lunch at 2ish, but where? I don't want to be late. lol


45 lbs of ribs!! :thumbup:

 

The corner of Orange and Rockland County border in NY. Get on a plane you have time.....

 

Here are the ribs........ they went from my stove to my dads house, where the party is going to be.



His house

 

Looks amazing Tough!! ^^^

 

ZOMG!! I want me some Smoked Meats!!

 

Damn! Damn! Looks great!

I got a slow cook Sunday gravy going now. It will be a rich pasta sauce by 5:30 pm!

here is my sunday gravy. essentially a meat sauce made with chunks of meat..in this case..short ribs and stuff.

 

Looks good! ^^^

 

Dang....going all Chef Ramsey on us. Looks awesome.

 

Yeah that is the backyard. It is a cool place to hang out.... we love it back there. It looks a little better in the summer.

 

ok foodies, i have a question for you. hosting a wing night this week. frying them. doing a pay $3 all you can eat, byob. bunch of college kids, drinking beer, hanging out, all that. basically a party centered around a shit ton of delicious chicken wings.

anyway, how many chicken wings do i get? that obviously is dependent on how many people show up, but we'll (roommates and I) have a pretty good idea of how many people are coming by the day of, via rsvp's on the facebook. so i guess my real question is, how many wings per head would you buy for a party like that? im thinking 8-10ish per head. i know personally i can eat 20+ if i want. most guys i would bet will be in the 15-18 wing count, girls 6 or so. do my numbers seem off? . . im not doing this to even turn a profit, just trying to have a good time, but don't want to lose money at the end of the night either.
thanks in advance.



edit: and by "chicken wing" i mean i will buy them by the pack and then cut them in halves. so a "20 pack" of wings will actually make "40 chicken wings". i know yall know that, but just putting it out there.

 

I would probably go with 10 a head. On that not I would make sure that there is enough filler on the table, stuff like chips and dips... veggie platter or coldcut platter. Both of which are simple and cheap. Just an idea, wings can get expensive, this stuff is cheaper.
