Food / Drink TCG Grillers, smokers and red meat enthusiasts

Tonight I tried something my buddy and I discussed. Seasoned an eye of the round like italian beef and smoked it to 135 then sliced it as thin as I could with a brisket knife. Made an italian style jus and smoked it for an hour then covered for another hour. Served on a turano sub roll made into garlic bread, mozz, baptized and topped home made giardinera. My only critique is I wish I could have sliced it thinner. This was one another level…

That looks very good including the gardinera. You probably need a deli slicer to get it as thin as you wanted it.

this is what i was gonna say. i have one- some amazon cheapo special. it works really well but it's a pain in the dick to clean so i use it like 4-5 times a year at most.

id do it like @deezuz mentions- cook it whole then putt it in fridge maybe even freezer to slice it super thin

Two big ole’ mushroom caps with Colby jack and jalapeños, and some chicken, string beans, mushrooms and red onions.

Thanks man, it's actually Outlaw's Mom's recipe that I forgot I had. I had a bunch of jalepenos from the garden and it's been legit.

I watched a beef thing and they cook em, fridge overnight then slice em cold, warm back up in teh juuuus

I had it in the fridge for a few hours but yeah, a slicer is needed.

Did some Dr Pepper chicken on the smoker wednesday after work. Holy crap it came out awesome. Wife called it the best chicken we’ve ever had at home. Ate like a king the next day at work too

That's how we used to do it at a hot dog stand my buddy had. We'd slow roast it whole to about medium-rare, then cool it off (for food safety purposes we'd do an ice bath to get it chilled quickly). Then slice it thin and keep refrigerated. Then we'd drop the beef in aus jus and finish cooking it (takes 60-90 seconds) right before it went in the sandwich. It always came out awesome that way.

offset guys, what oil are you using to season your smoker and protect from rust? I watched Smokin Dad, his climate is much more like ours (Hes in Toronto). He uses very thin coat of Flax seed oil on everything except firebox. Canola on firebox. I copied, still have "bubbly" finish and has residue on everything. Even using a towel to apply. Also used a torch to burn it on even though the smoker was ripping hot. I used fluid film on the chassis of it for now. No rust, but i want to keep it that way.

Cheapest food-grade oil I can get my hands on. Usually Canola.

Smoked an oddly-shaped meatloaf - still tasted great. Glazed with a mix of ketchup and BBQ sauce.

Same cutting boards.

We did a 60/40 ground beef/turkey loaf last week... Chopped and sautéed the peppers veg mixed prior to mixing in... Was fucking amazing... Yukon gold mashed chef kisseyss

Hard to pass up meatloaf and mashed at home or at a restaurant. Have this Amish area by me, meatloaf is amazing.

Anyone else like a cold meatloaf sandwich with an onion slice, and yellow mustard?

 

[camarothatcould]

Only if rye bread

 

[TCG Member 2988]

Leftover meatloaf, garlic mashed potatoes, and a little BBQ sauce on some super soft white bread. Can't beat it.
