smoking Blues, Booze & BBQ

Hey ya'll once again from the big dry ditch. Been a while since I began a new thread and just so happens that its time once again to get my bbq fix. Good 'que as ya'll know is better served up with some tasty blues and a cold adult beverage. This thread has only 3 rules for posting and they are simple..

1. Post pics of your bbq.

2. Post pics of the booze.

3. Post a photo, video, or soundclip of your blues.

I'll start it off right proper with the goin's on in The Blues Kitchen. While you're perusing the thread enjoy this clip of the late Sean Costello performing an unbelievable emotion filled cover of Otis Rush's Double Trouble.



Get your 'que on ya'll!
 
Started it off last night ya'll with a Cranberry Vodka cocktail while prepping the country style ribs.

Gettin' creative here with a pound of ground bison with a little extra surprise!

Got some bison stuffing leftover....what to do? Actually I planned on making these. The original version is called a MOINK ball. (moo + oink = moink)
Since I'm using bison in lieu of beef I shall refer to these as BOINKS!

Wrapped in a bacon suit, poked and coated with my rub...

One hour in....added the boinks. Smokin' low and slow at a steady 240f.

Can you smell that? Once the bacon starts teh slow smokin' the neighbors are going to start going crazy!
