Trivia Night

[squirtthecat]

I don't know how I get roped into these things...

Friends are having a trivia night for their school.   I figured we could bring some pulled pork for a few sandwiches to share..

Now we are looking at a table of 8-10 hungry people.

Time to raid the freezer!

Pulled pork and a bit of brisket, and 2 packages of venison sticks w/ jalepeno cheese..




Turkey breast, frozen SOLID.  In ya go:




When it gets in the 140 range, I'll put it on the gasser w/ some Pecan pucks down near the burners.   
This is going to be a TURBO smoke job.

Yes, but you can do it Squirt

I know I need to clean my glasses, but...
Did I really see that last picture???

Yes you did.  Frozen turkey in cooking bag.   Been in for an hour now, should be thawed enough to transfer to the Bradley for a couple hours of Apple/Oak - and then continue to 160*.

Thought about using the gasser, but we have 6.5 hours before we have to be there.  Plenty o' time.

You sure didn't get much notice...

No I didn't.  And little Irvette Lurline tore open the bag of dollar rolls I brought home last night to take with...  I caught her dismantling one in my hat on the kitchen table.  [sigh]

Turkey time!   I get to try out my new high temp screens from Yard & Pool as well..

1/2 cooked turkey slathered in CT and some of Bubba's rib rub..   And some hot water with 'flavor' for the pan:



Smokin' now.     

I made the cardinal sin of getting the Maverick cable wet - so it is sending stupid high readings until it dries out.  >:(

If you have recently purchased your Maverick. Give them a call and tell them you did a bonehead move and ask if you could get a replacement. Warranty covers bonehead they will send you a new probe. Which is longer than the original. If not covered by warranty I think it is like $6 for a new one.

Thanks, I have spares as well.   I do like the 6' replacement ones better.

My other Maverick is keeping an eye on things now..

I don't know how you get roped into these things either, but I wish I lived a lot closer to you!  ;D  I guess you're just a mice guy.

Arnie, if you lived close to Squirt, that would be about all you lived "close to".

3 bars, a coal mine, a wind turbine and a grain elevator..

And Route 66, if you are into nostalgia.



At least this time I get to eat some of the food, as well as keep the leftovers!

Yep, drove it in the early seventies.  A friend was getting married in Lubbock, TX.  I drove down in my blue '69 T-Top 'vette.

Good for you!

If you were on the stretch through Central, IL, you might have seen this:

I'm going to Expedia right now, and see if I can book Art's Presidential Suite...
