bbq lovers

[Tommyh]

any guys here like to cook bbq?
I love it,and of course I love to eat.Thought maybe we could share some experiences..

My sponsor makes barbecue sometimes. He's a ol' boy from Mississippi, and had me over one of the first nice days this spring. Talking about stepwork goes down easier with ribs to gnaw on

[windysan]

get some ribeyes and have the butcher cut em about 1/2 inch thick. in a ziplock bag put the meat, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, some honey, some olive oil, a BUNCH of chopped garlic and green onions. let that marinate at least a few hours (better overnight). grill it medium rare. grill some asparagus with olive oil and sea salt. slice some tomatoes and add a bit of olive oil, salt pepper.

i ate this tonight. dang, it was good.

grill some asparagus with olive oil and sea salt

I`m going to try something today I`ve never tried before.I found it on the web.My wife looked at it and made a face...I`l let you know how it turns out,I may be making a "face" later today

Keri's Hog-Apple Baked Beans

3 or 4 slices bacon, diced
2 (16 oz) cans pork and beans, mostly drained
(modified to 2 28-oz cans Bush's Baked Beans -
see note below)
1/2 c. Blues Hog BBQ Sauce (or other sweet-spicy favorite)
1 lb. smoked leftover smoked pork or beef, more or less,
or 1 lb crumbled cooked pork sausage
1 can apple pie filling (chop up the big chunks some)
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 c. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. Mustard (prepared)
1 tsp chipotle or cayenne powder (optional, to taste*)
1 tsp Blues Hog barbecue rub (or your favorite de jour)

Brown bacon, and saute onion and green pepper in bacon grease.
Mix in remaining ingredients. Bake at 325º for 1 hour, or simmer
on stovetop in large pot for 30 minutes if you don't have time to
do them in the oven. Serves 12.

This recipe began life as APPLE PIE BAKED BEANS from somewhere
on the web, but I think I've made enough changes to it now to
claim it as my own. This is my standard for baked beans anymore.

*This is a rather spicy recipe due to the chipotle/cayenne powder.
Feel free to leave it out if you'll be feeding those who prefer a less spicy taste.

gumbo sounds hard but it is easy. when you are in the grocery store see if they have "roux" in a jar. If they do buy a jar, a chicken, a pound of andouille sausage(or smoked sausage if no andouille), celery, bell pepper, onion, Tony Cachere's seasoning, some bay leaves, a package of frozen okra(or fresh if you can get it), some lemons, a can of seedless/peeled tomatoes, a few quart jugs of chicken stock or chicken broth, green onions, long grain rice, garlic(whole pod).

In a little oil brown the chicken and sausage and put aside. To the oil add onions/bell peppers/celery/garlic(these need to be diced), brown some more. add the can of tomatoes, the okra, juice of one lemon, some salt/pepper, about a tablespoon of Tony Cachere's seasoning (or cayenne pepper if you can't find Tony's). Add some lemon zest (about 1/2 a lemon's worth). Put the meat back in, add the chicken stock and 2 or 3 bay leaves, add the roux(you'll need to follow the directions on the jar so as to melt it down). Cook slow for 3 or 4 hours on low simmer.

Cook rice and at the end add chopped green onions to the rice. Put rice/onions in bowls, pour gumbo on top. If you can find Gumbo File(sassafras leaves) then add about a teaspoon to the bowls of gumbo right before you serve it(never cook with gumbo file).

this all takes time but it is excellent.

the beans turned out good
I left out the sausage
I did forget to break up the apple chucks
to my surprise my wife liked them

anyone here like ABT`S

[ex D-Boy]

thanks windy, sounds real good im gonna try to make it this weekend. ill let you know how it turns out

[windysan]

what is ABT's?

good luck XD. just remember to follow that order. don't put the bay leaves in too soon or it'll be bitter. you want a soup consistency and not a stew. if you wanna get fancy you can make a rice mold out of a round bottom coffee cup, put the mold in the middle of each bowl, then pour the gumbo over the little mold. throw some green onions on top and some file if you can find it. make sure you cook the okra until most of the slimey strings are gone. you won't hurt the veggies by cooking them down but make sure not to burn them. the key is to stir. now if you can't find roux in a jar then follow these directions to a "T". you want the consistency and color of really dark peanut butter.....don't look away from the roux....keep stirring.
