At times, My family gives me some not-so-subtle cues that they do not love smoked food as much as I do.
The usual conversation is:
"What do you want for dinner?"
"I could smoke a ..."
"NO"
They do ask for pork butt, brisket and the like every now and then, but I could eat that for almost every meal.
So anyway, I decided to try a little experiment today.
I started the grill as usual, but took the steaks (ribeyes) out with me early and hit them with 2 pucks of Mesquite (tower heater off) while the charcoal was starting. I would have rather put 3 pucks on them, and wrapped in plastic, rest in the fridge and grill the next day, but...
I took them out of the smoker and right on to the grill.
Served them to my family.
"These are GOOD! what did you season them with?"
"The usual"
Mission accomplished.
A job well done my friend. 8)
A little sugar in the medicine trick.

Way to fool em :D
Haha thats great! A few weeks back my wife wanted "baked" ribs the way I used to make them before I started my smoking obsession. We had to run a bunch of errands that day so I told her I would "bake" them in the ES while we were gone. Little did she know that there was some apple chips smoking while we were gone. :)
That's another reason I bought the Bradley!! Nice job.
Thats pretty funny FL...I bet I could do the same thing with the same results with my family.
SIA
Funny! :D I'm going to have to remember that one! ;)
