Going to my parents and smoking a couple pork butts along with some corn in the Bradley.

Brisket, ABTs, and a batch of Smoked Onion soup.

If you have not tried this soup yet, you should.  The flavor is unbelievable.  Be sure to use a nice rich beef stock that you know has good flavor.  The range of flavors in commercial stock is crazy and some of it tastes like water that a cow might have, just maybe, looked at once.

I sort of combined the two soup recipes, one found here
http://www.bradleysmoker.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=821
and the other from Smoke and Spice, which is very much the same,  just some added Thyme etc...  I also added the sugar more at the beginning to help the onions carmelize.

2 things I would do a bit different:

1) I didn't use much cream, but may not use any next time as the soup is so rich to begin with.  I guess it's more of a cold-weather dish (Sorry Olds!) but the flavor is so good I'm gonna make it again this weekend.

2) I threw the onions in along with some ABTs, so they got an hour of Pecan.  I think this weekend I will cut the onions in half and give them another puck or two of the pecan.

I'm not sure yet but those Saint Loey's are sounding good.  My wife will opt in for some Pablano's and some bakers.  With the Pablano's I will leave out the bacon(I can'y believe I said that) and focus on more shrimp with the cheese.  BUt I will wrap them in bacon so I can have some redemption.

It's not how much you smoke but how many friends you make while doing it...

Mike, which version do you make, the one on the forum, or the S&S?

That was my first time making it, so didn't want to change anything up too much.  Damn was it tasty! [:p]

MallardWacker

I did what ever was posted on the forum.  

I have done it in mainly two ways, red or white wine.  The red is the best.  I experimenting with the size of cuts of the onion pieces.  I'm thinking of even putting a slice of Provalone on top.  Also I have incresed my beef stock to TWO box(containers).

Foam Steak

I will be driving cross country.  Probably going to be feasting on McDonalds, Taco Bell and strong coffee.  This is my strong coffee recipe.

1 Large McDonalds or Taco Bell Coffee
2-3 Heaping Tablespoons Instant Coffee
8 Cream containers
8 sugar containers

Enjoy

I forgot to mention that I finished it in the classic French Onion soup style of some bread on top, covered in Gruyere cheese, then under the broiler for a couple minutes.  Think that may have added to the richness?  [;)] [:p]

BigSmoker

For which meal?  The one where my brother user his gasser or when I do some refined smoking?  It's getting kinda warm here but the onion soup does sound awfully good.

Brisket(probably a 8-10# flat) in the BS with all the trimmings from the kitchen. Will probably be hollering for help as it gets neareras my first Brisket was beautifal but tough.

<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">You frustrate this carinvore.  Tell me, is there anything better looking than a raw well aged Poterhouse.  Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder.  

Olds, when you put mine on the grill, medium rare please and don't put a thing on it--I'l add a bit of salt at the table.  And I hope you don't mind, I will use my hands to get to that last little bit around the bone.  RAVE ON!
