Chef Jim Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 I'll be sticking a pork shoulder in the smoker soon for pulled pork tacos with all the trimmings. Blackberry crisp, crumble, cobbler or fool for desserts using wild blackberries from our backyard. Not sure what I'm making yet. Mimosas soon. Well it's only 8:15am here so not that soon. Cheers everyone and eat well!!

Chef Jim Posted July 6, 2013 Author Posted July 6, 2013 Leftovers today from the Fourth. Oh yeah and I don't have to go to work tomorrow like I did on the fifth.
billsfanmiami(oh) Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 On the 4th did beef brisket and pork shoulder in the smoker. Brisket was probably around 10 lbs after trimming and went about 13-14 hrs. Pork was two separate 7-8 pounders. First was done around same time as brisket but the second one took closer to 16 hrs for whatever reason. Had two smokers going and the one I did the pork in is a little more finnicky. All turned out great though. Yesterday was leftovers, burgers, sausages & dogs. Today was same for lunch then bacon wrapped filets for dinner. First time doing steaks on the in laws bad ass Viking out at their pool (just moved in a few months ago). It's got one of those sear setting burners for super high heat. Had it around 500, minute or so on each side then finished off on other burners. Some of the best steaks I've ever done!
Garion Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 On the fourth was white hots Ziegler plus the usual fourth of July fair. Love me some white hots.

God it feels good to be back in central NY! This is the company which sponsors Kobayashi who is estranged from the Nathan's people. http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2012/07/competitive_eater_takeru_kobay_1.html Kobayashi is the latest investor to join the “dream team” Hofmann investors, which includes Syracuse University Basketball Coach Jim Boeheim, former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach and Auburn native Phil Romano, the creator of national chains such as Fuddruckers and Romano’s Macaroni Grill. The acquisition of the 133-year-old Hofmann company by the Zaccanelli Food Group was announced in May at Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona. Oneida Nation Enterprises is lead investor in the project, and its chief executive officer, Ray Halbritter, serves on the Hofmann board of directors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takeru_Kobayashi On June 28, 2010, Kobayashi announced he would not compete in the Nathan's Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Competition. The impasse was reportedly due to a Major League Eating's insistence that Kobayashi sign an exclusive contract with the organization that would prevent him from competing in contests not sanctioned by MLE.
