The local grocery always has good stuff on sale for the holidays. Got a whole bag of grillin' oysters, 2 dozen. Gonna pop 'em on the barbie and wait till shell pops then remove the half shell and baste 'em with butter, Tapatio and garlic sauce and go a couple more minutes.
Smoked Prime Rib to celebrate our birthdays!
Honestly, if I can find a meat market in rural central GA that is sourcing heritage pork from local farmers, it would seem like you could find the same in Alabama unless Tyson has put them all out of business.I'm jealous of you guys that have heirloom pork available. All we have locally is the "Tysonized" pork--the new white meat with not enough fat to make decent tasting smoke when barbequed.
And I'm disappointed in all the commercial barbeque restaurants using hybrid natural gas/1 log fires to cook their barbeque on a timer. I liked it when a pittmaster would spend ever other night until daybreak making great smells. I seldom smell any decent food cooking--other than Texas Roadhouse.
I had barbeque for late lunch. Cooked burgers for supper. Tomorrow it's ribeyes on the grill.
The oysters came out wonderful. Wifey is not so fond as I and she even cuts the big ones in half so as not so intimidating.
She suggested I go get another bag! We both stood by the grill and I was shucking and saucing and reheating and then we would eat the plate and I would fire the rest.
No, they were already smoked--just grilled them up.
The Bavarian sausage deli had some uncooked, that will be our next plan--actually smoke them ourselves. Bet they will be delicious!
Did up some sous vide drumsticks for supper. Salt & pepper & garlic powder, 155F for 3 hours, then whipped 'em on the hibachi for the skin browning / crisping.
Amazing, going on regular rotation. Next time pics, we ate the evidence this time.
Tricky and you need really good heat gloves and shucking knife - but the way an oyster farm in WA did it was grill over high heat for a few mins and before the oyster popped open they would shuck it, put on a sauce, and return to the grill for a minute.
We were able to successfully replicate this technique at home and used a basil butter.
For some reason DH has turned off eating them raw.
