TheGreenChileMonster Fires Up The Weber Smokey Mountain

I'm doing some beef dino ribs today. I like to cook them as a mix of BBQ styles. Low and slow with lots of smoke, American BBQ style. I only use coarse salt as a direct seasoning on the ribs, but I make a salmuera to baste them with, Argentine style. I'll be using my WSM. I got my WSM about 2 months ago, and I've smoked a whole lamb, briskets, chickens, salmon, beef dinos, pork ribs, and pork butts. I've become very familiar with maintaining specific temps on the smoker. This will be 250 degrees all the way til it's done.

Rib blocks trimmed of the silverskin, and excess fat.


Ribs hit the Weber at 12:45. I'm using oak, hickory, and a bit of mesquite.

Hell yeah, man! Dude, you eat like a KING every day, haha! Probably 3 days a week, I'm stuck eating the kids' leftover dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets and shit :rofl:
Lol!!! I try my best to keep us well fed. I'm going fishing all day tomorrow with some bros on the Shenandoah river, so if we land some fish, I'll be firing the grill up again tomorrow evening. We're taking a small charcoal grill out with us tomorrow to grill brats/burgers and whatnot while we fish.

That marinade looks killer. Does the the lime cook the shrimp any?
Yeah, It definitely denatures the protein a bit. If I were to make ceviche with this shrimp, I would cut it into smaller pieces, then salt it first for 5 minutes to draw out the water from the flesh. I would then hit it with straight lime juice so that the shrimp pieces reabsorb the citrus like a sponge to "cook" it from the inside out.
 
I went out fishing with a couple of buddies today. We all caught fish, which was nice. Largemouth bass. We decided to catch and release, but it was a good time out.









We got back to my house from fishing, and were starved, so I whipped up some burger patties, sliced some manchego, and diced up some roasted Hatch green chiles.


There is a solid layer of green chile under all that delicious melted cheese.


Roasted potatoes smothered in chimichurri, and a green chile cgeeseburger. Damn good eating after a long day in the sun!
 
i'd normally post this is a vagabond kinda thread but this is the next best thing  ;)
 
TGCM sent me the most epic box of love that was received today and one thing I was really stoked to try was his rocoto jelly
 
brought the jar up to the brewery tonight and my bro used it as the sauce on this pie
