Your special 4th of July dinner?

[FONSguy]

I plan to do pulled BBQ pork (my recipe) with cabbage & vinegar slaw, on potato rolls. Perhaps corn on the cob, to get my butter portion for the day. Southern style Iced tea. Ice cream for desert.

I'm off for the next 5 days, and my wife isn't. I'll put ribs on the smoker for Thursday, Bratwurst tonight and tomorrow. (I like Bratwurst).

Here in Sheboygan, Brats are commonly the default choice and got those as well as some fresh Sheboygan Hard Rolls that I bought this morning. Best thing to put a Brat on (better a double) hands down. Lots of Butter and Mustard-Onions.
(No, Sheboyganites don't pre-boil their Brats!)

Maybe might go out for a brat-burger fry somewhere, don't know just yet?

But was thinking of maybe making a legit from scratch southern style Hamburger Steak Dinner in Brown Gravy with Mashed Taters and a Veggie on the side. Got some lovely ground Sirloin Steak Patties this morning as well.

Brisket. Also a pork butt. These are from previous cooks. Burgers and dogs for lunch. The big stuff for dinner.

I'm going to smoke a 4-5 lb sirloin tip tomorrow morning. Planning to use mesquite for the smoke. Might throw in a pork loin, too, for good measure. Serving that with grilled corn-on-the-cob, best way ever to cook corn IMHO.

I've got a 1.3 lb, 2 inch thick Black Angus strip steak that I'll be cooking for dinner. I'm going to try out a new potato recipe: crushed baby red potatoes with butter, garlic, chives and parsley. I haven't decided on the vegetable yet.

Those look really good. Bacon in there correct?

Yeah, mostly bacon and some polish beef sausage. (Left overs, they gotta go somewhere) Eric

Had to get my red, white and blue fix so I had this after a late breakfast.

 

[Eric n Kc]

Hey

Baby backs are done for better or worse . I haven't smoked ribs on a grill in yrs. They cooked way too fast. About 4 and half hours. So much for 321 system. Oh well dinner is served. Eric

 

[BigElCat]

I sometimes smoke steaks on my propane grill.

Just put the mesquite chips in an box. Or on some tin foil. Put the chips on dry, wait till they burst into flame. Douse them with a spray bottle.

Then put the steaks on. Watch the chips, spray them with water if they re-ignite.

It's not as good as slow smoking, but it's fast and it does give some smoke flavoring.

 

[BigElCat]

It's got be mesquite, don't mess with those fruit flavors.
