food TheGreenChileMonster Fires Up The Weber Smokey Mountain

I was literally just going to ask if your ham was cured, but you already answered that lol.

I've never eaten an uncured ham but I would imagine it's like a blank canvas that you could impart whatever flavors you want on it.

Some beef dino blocks just hit my WSM for an all night cook. Royal Oak and hickory, low and slow.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

Woke up at 3:40 AM to check on the Q. The smoker is kicking! Slammed this sour, then went back to bed...

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

This is definitely something nice to wake up to! I just wrapped them in foil, and added some beef broth and AC vinegar in the bottom of the foil packs. The ribs are at 180 degrees right now, and jt's pouring rain outside. I put them in my oven at 225 to take them up to a final temp of 206, then there will be a 2 hour rest in the cooler, wrapped in towels.

Smoked salmon. I started with this 5 lb. filet of salmon. I cut it into 5 1lb. Pieces, then made a brine with aji limo, aji panca, aji amarillo, rocoto, fish sauce, hoisin sauce, and water. I brined the fish over night.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

This morning I removed the fish from the brine, amd put the filets on my dehydrator racks, amd set the temp to 95 degrees for 4 hours. Once a nice pellicle formed, I put the fish down on a paper bag, and cut molds out of the bag for the fish to sit on the grill with.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

I then put the fish on the grill with apple wood, and a handful of kingsford. Temp is at 225.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

I just whipped up some fresh tzatziki to accompany the smoked salmon.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

I can't wait to dig in!

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

Sooooo F'ing tasty!

 

[tctenten]

Not a fan of salmon, but I would hammer down a plate of those.

 

[Thegreenchilemonster]

I ate that whole plate! I made a smaller one for the Mrs.

 

[t0mato]

You're killing it dude!

Smoked salmon is one of my absolute favorite foods.

 

[HopsNBarley]

I would have eaten the whole plate too. Likely including the plate itself.

Nicely done!

Damn!

I normally don't mess with salmon either, but with that sauce... I would get down.

Oh and what was that beer or whatever that you said you slammed a sour? Lol. That is a crazy color whatever it is
