The cooking thread

Made some monster sized crab stuffed Portobello mushrooms last night.

Ever since I quit smoking I can't stop eating but it's nice to be a non smoker after 25 years!

I didn't take pictures but I made a breakfast sourdough baguette with red onion, chopped Angus steak pieces, cheddar* (back into the oven for that good melt), some hot BBQ sauce and coleslaw salad.

*This cheddar only contained 48% cheddar, and the packaging said nothing other than "with CHEDDAR".

Smoked brisket (American ash)

I want that brisket.

Here is tonights whiskey wood chip smoked sticky chicken.
It's just like ribs but chicken.

I got a 13 lb chunk of silverside I have just started brining to make corned beef. It's massive and far too much for all of us so my plan is to use some for straight up corned beef and a heap to make jerky.

Just wondering if I'd be better off making the jerky after brining and before cooking or cook it all first?
I feel as though not cooking it will be better but never done this before. Going to smoke both the corn beef and jerky on my smoker.

I, personally wouldn’t cook BEFORE jerky.

That is my thoughts too but there are a load of recipes using corned beef to make jerky, was wondering if anyone has tried that method.

Think i´ll brine it, then soak overnight in clean water, cut what i want for jerky strips, marinade them overnight 3 ways then smoke em. Looking forward to trying it out to be honest but that is soooo much beef. lol
Got like an 8lb pork butt in the freezer to go next too.

First batch of jerky done and it's perfect. A Whisky/Maple/Pepper marinade on this one and doing a Hot chilli/Teriyaki one today.

I was filled with hurricane PTSD energy this past weekend so here is my new outdoor range and smoker set up. The Thermadore range actually required a two stage regulator. Cabinet doors will be done next week.

Mini fish fry for 2.

Basque Cake was amazing.

This is the book you need. It's like 10 kilos heavy and total cake porn. My wife got a kitchen aid and I'm now getting fat.
Perfection.

I had to go low carb to keep this old body of mine in functioning shape. This book is like the book of death. Delicious death for sure but still death.

I make home made pasta, sauce , and pizza dough. Use a French steel and ceramic pizza stone. Currently cook the pizza on a charcoal grill till I build an oven.
Pasta machine was a gem found for 2 dollars at a garage sale.
