Right on, right on. Yeah, this is episode number 51 of the You know Outdoor Barbecue Cooking Channel because everything just tastes better outdoors, don't it?

SPEAKER_01

It does. I agree with you there.

SPEAKER_03

And we did some great cooks today. Last week we talked, what did we talk about last week?

SPEAKER_01

We talked about the pizza.

SPEAKER_03

Pizza.

SPEAKER_01

And also your burritos.

SPEAKER_03

Burritos. And we also talked about the pit boss and repairing it.

SPEAKER_02

Oh yeah, I forgot about that.

SPEAKER_03

We went into that a little bit, so if that of interest you be sure and check out episode 5-0. That was the last episode we did right there.

SPEAKER_00

Time to fire up that grill. From smoke for to Smash Burger. Outdoor cooking just tastes better. This is the Okie Smoking Podcast. And here's your host, John Barry.

SPEAKER_03

But on this one, we're going to go ahead and jump into some cooks that we did. What's some of them we're going to talk about? A couple of the cooks we're going to talk about today.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, you did your twice-baked potatoes and the little green egg, or however you say it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I did the is it twice baked, double baked? I guess it's really the same thing. But you can find this on our YouTube channel. And it is uh double baked or double smoked uh baked potatoes where those turned out real good. Dolores didn't have those. She stuck with her keto, and uh she just had some steak and salad, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yes. And so and the steaks were really good on it too. It was marinated and all that stuff, also.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and we'll get into some of that as well. Turned out really, really good. Yeah, I'll say how I'll tell you how we cooked those. And we I cooked those to a real nice pink center. I was very happy they were they were thicker steaks, thicker cuts of steaks.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah, usually I can finish mine, but this time around I did not finish it. I had to save it for today for lunch.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, these were extremely large steaks. And and when it comes to What were they?

SPEAKER_01

What type of steak was it?

SPEAKER_03

I believe they're New York strips.

SPEAKER_01

Wow, those are actually big for a New York strip.

SPEAKER_03

They were seasoned in uh some beer.

SPEAKER_01

And we don't know what else because our daughter-in-law and our son actually marinated them in the river.

SPEAKER_03

They marinated them up, put the seasoning on them.

SPEAKER_01

It was overnight, an overnight marinade.

SPEAKER_03

They could have been ribeyes.

SPEAKER_01

I don't you know.

SPEAKER_03

They were pretty good size. Don't even know what we had. All I know it was good. Um, I didn't get it. They brought them over and had marinated them and we cooked them. And and really, when it comes to steak, you don't need that big of a steak. You know what? It's for me the perfect size of steak, just six ounces.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know about that because I love me some steak, so you know how I am. But I'm also I'm also having the steak with uh potatoes and yeah, and I don't get that, so mine's just like the big steak and then the salad.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe you'll just eat the steak straight up.

SPEAKER_01

Exactly. Yeah. I'm a meat eater.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, she's definitely a meat eater. And that goes hand in hand in hand with with keto.

SPEAKER_01

Um but I'll Yeah, but even even before keto. Right. The steak person.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Sometimes I wouldn't finish John's steak if he liked me.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, she'll eat her whole one.

SPEAKER_01

I'd eat some of his. Yeah. But pretty bad at that.

SPEAKER_03

These particular steaks though, you you weren't even able to finish.

SPEAKER_01

No, this time around I could not finish it. That's why I ate the rest today for for lunch, and it was pretty good.

SPEAKER_03

Right. And we we had those uh for lunch, and I actually had some more. We almost got through all of the potatoes today. I finished my uh steak because I didn't need it all. But let me go into real quick.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, don't forget they also we also had jalapenos with the stuffed cream cheese and the baking wrap. Those were good too.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, had all that yesterday. But yeah, we started out with this on the big green egg, and I went ahead and heated the uh uh egg up to about 400 degrees. And before I put those on, I just got uh potatoes and I used avocado oil. What do you think of that?

SPEAKER_01

That's good. Yeah, well, I don't know, I didn't get to taste it, but they smelled good.

Double-Smoked Baked Potatoes

SPEAKER_03

Normally I use olive oil, but this time I I just brushed on avocado oil after I did you eat did you eat like the whole thing or just the inside? Just the inside.

SPEAKER_01

Well, you're supposed to eat like the whole thing. Oh, I know.

SPEAKER_03

It'd been cooked to a to a wow to a I I I probably had some of the skin.

SPEAKER_01

That's the best part of the potato.

SPEAKER_03

I did have some of it, but I did I didn't eat the whole potato because it'd been cooked so long. It was it was pretty hard in spots.

SPEAKER_01

Wow, it is still it is definitely good.

SPEAKER_03

I cooked them after I had put that avocado oil and salt on for what about an hour and a half? Hour and a half, two hours. And uh the fun part of this, it's a little time consuming, is after that taking them off and cutting them all in half. And then just cutting or scooping all the potatoes out. And then the the thing I put in it, once I scooped them all out, was just some cheese.

SPEAKER_01

Bacon bits.

SPEAKER_03

Bacon bits. Now, you could have cooked real bacon, we didn't have any, had some bacon bits. Just poured about a I don't know, a fourth to a half.

SPEAKER_01

I did uh serrano peppers too, and uh and that was really good.

SPEAKER_03

I took about a half of a serrano pepper and and placed in there, so and then we put a whole stick of butter. And then I just got a uh potato smasher.

SPEAKER_01

I like how he says we.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, you didn't have these. And uh mixed it up real good with some salt, with some pepper, and uh added some more cheese, threw them back on for about 20 minutes.

SPEAKER_01

They looked really good. If I would have ate, so I would probably ate like a bunch because you made a a lot.

SPEAKER_03

God on my I've had four of them today.

SPEAKER_01

You know, honestly, you could have probably just like did four baked potatoes because you cut them in half, you know, and just had it that way. Yeah, and um but we always like eat it, like do an army, it seems like like you're feeding an army.

SPEAKER_03

We do, and and and we do but I mean we have leftovers, that's why. And when you're getting the fire, not always, but a lot of times when you're getting that fire heated up, whether it'd even be on a pit boss, uh pellet grill. Pellet grill would say not as much, maybe, but if you're getting a using a bunch of charcoal on a Weber Smoky Mountain or a big green egg or something, and you know, let's fill it up, let's use of all of the fuel it's giving you, and then uh heat it up uh the next day. You'll just have some extras, take it to work for lunch or whatever, and I think it it works out real well that way. Uh so that's what we did here. And I think we cooked seven baked potatoes, we got seven baked potatoes on the big green egg.

SPEAKER_01

And you cut them all in half?

Steak Cooking Techniques

SPEAKER_03

Cut them in half, so then we had 14 halves, of course. I then did seven at a time for the next 20 minutes and just put the uh oven inside at a warm setting and just put them in there. And as we got things done, uh the bacon wraps, which we'll talk about here in a minute, as we got certain things done, I just put them on the rack in the oven. It was basically just like a hot and ready pizza, except it's hot and ready potatoes, you know, just like you'd get at a restaurant or something. They just kind of kept kind of like keeping it under a warmer. And that'll way you get it and it's nice and warm and really good. And plus, the whole time it's just continuing to kind of uh really work on those potatoes even more, getting that cheese all melted all throughout the center of it. And uh turned out fantastic. I after I did the potatoes, I went ahead and the next thing we did was the bacon-wrapped jalapenos, and I did it in this order because the potatoes are gonna take the longest, the bacon is gonna take the second longest, and the steaks are gonna be pretty quick, which I'll tell you how I how I've started to cook those.

SPEAKER_01

And uh it seemed like dinner was pretty fast though.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it was.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it didn't take that long to to do everything. I and in the process, my son and stuff was building a basketball. Getting the basketball.

SPEAKER_03

We got that thing put together. That was a pain in the ass.

SPEAKER_01

Uh but don't be cussing on here.

SPEAKER_03

The uh jalapeno poppers took about 20 minutes, and I was thinking about putting them on the pit boss while I was, you know, doing, you know, because I've got all these smokers, and I couldn't I could, you know, use two or three of them. But I just I just kept with the big green egg and cooked those for about 20 minutes, threw them in the warmer on the oven, and then we went to the steak, which they were nice thick cuts. Those are easier to cook. You put those uh thinner cuts on.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and what's crazy is like you could like cut it, and it's like butter.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Not like where you're like sawing at it, you know.

SPEAKER_03

And and and it's easy to eat.

SPEAKER_01

And uh, but those thicker cuts You know, I noticed that our daughter-in-law spoils us when it comes to steak.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh we get the we get the good stuff.

SPEAKER_03

Dad, you want to cook steak? I'll bring it up to you.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I'm like when when the dad doesn't. We just do the the cheap things.

SPEAKER_03

Uh you know, I'm getting the the the sirloin special or chuck steak or something, and then uh marinating it and and turning it into uh more of an elevated steak somehow, but the steak she brings it, you don't even have to do that. So it it makes it work, it works out well. Always bringing food. Chicken wings is another thing they bring all the time.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, the chick.

SPEAKER_03

Oh not chicken wings, chicken, uh drums, drums. They're always bringing drumsticks.

SPEAKER_01

I must say that I'm not a fan of drumsticks until you got this little big green, whatever, whatever it's called. I keep on forgetting.

SPEAKER_03

You like them on the big green egg, but but you it makes it like taste better for some reason. I think they did good. You think they're better than the pit boss?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yes. Like big time for I don't because I don't know, the pit boss that like over charcoals it or something. Like over something on it. It does something.

SPEAKER_03

I have been a fan of uh cooking on the big green egg. It has been been really, really good. And everything's turned out great, except for a few things. I've I've burnt the biscuits.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you burnt the biscuits.

SPEAKER_03

Biscuits I tried, and and I think I I'm gonna redo those. I'll be doing some cinnamon rows.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, and I you know, I might cheat on day.

SPEAKER_03

I've got some cinnamon rolls in a can.

SPEAKER_01

I really like cinnamon rows.

Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeños

SPEAKER_03

I'll film that. And we're just gonna put them on uh the uh the the pizza stone. The first time I did it, I don't I I didn't I didn't know what the heck I was doing. And I I was cook trying some biscuits and they become black hockey pucks. They were they look like charcoal when they were done. I burnt the whole bottom of them.

SPEAKER_01

So I've uh learned how to did it smell like it was burning through the neighborhood.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, so yeah, that so I I've Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_01

So the next thing that you could have cooked on there has been ribs, and he made me some keto ones, and I devoured both, like both, yeah, he cut them in half, and I devoured both of them. Like the next day, I like I literally ate the whole entire thing.

SPEAKER_03

And those were fall off the bone. And when we were when I made those, I was wrapping them, and while I was wrapping them, she's over here trying to eat them. I said, We we still got to do the wrapping stage.

SPEAKER_02

I was like, I don't care.

SPEAKER_03

I'm just taking a little take. She's sampling it. And then, oh, they're good, they're ready, and and and they they most likely were, but I did throw them on wrapped for about another 30 to 45 minutes, and then she's over there crunching on crunching on uh the crumbs of it and everything.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my god, it was so good. Yeah, so those are what seasoning did you guys put like you put on yours with you know so I put some maple bacon rub on them. Was it that? I thought it was a honey type.

SPEAKER_03

I thought I put the maple bacon rub on it.

SPEAKER_02

You could have you could have on them.

SPEAKER_03

I do have a pork honey barbecue rub that I use frequently, so it's possible that I put those on them.

SPEAKER_01

Or did you put add honey to it?

SPEAKER_03

I'm pretty sure pretty sure I didn't. I forgot the honey.

SPEAKER_01

Now mine was just plain. I had the steak seasoning stuff, and then just a little bit of other stuff, but that's it. Like that's all I wanted on it. And oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_03

She had some onion salt.

SPEAKER_01

That was good.

SPEAKER_03

And steak Montreal seasoning.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it has like garlic, all sorts of stuff in the which are that's my go-to stuff too.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, which are both zero carbs. Yeah, mine was had some carbs in it, and it's I think it's John's Mayer. John's Meyer.

SPEAKER_01

Uh yours had a bunch of carbs in it because it was like over 15 or something.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it it had the carbs in it, but boy, it was good. When when you put my rub on it, you could smell the bacon. Like you could you could just smell it coming up in the air.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So yeah, that would that was fantastic stuff too. I'll talk a little more about that.

SPEAKER_01

I did like those ribs compared to my ones that you've made last time.

SPEAKER_03

I was gonna talk just a minute about those steaks, and how I've found the best way to cook those now is what I do is I got a little uh Google mini speaker. So you go outside, you throw them on at between four and five hundred degrees, you come and tell Google, time two minutes. You go back out, flip them, do the same thing, do two minutes. So you got four minutes, and then just flip them until I guess what I'd say about 110 to 115 degrees. Then I start to open it up and try to get that, you know, airflow in there and get that flame and then get the sear on it. But you were saying you like the steaks better on the pit balls.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I like the sear. I like the I don't know, something about it. But I mean those are good. I just like that.

SPEAKER_03

This is gonna be the way we're gonna do it. We're we're gonna do, we'll do have to do a video of a steak like this. We're gonna use the big green egg to smoke them to like 110 degrees. This is what I was thinking. Smoke them to about 110 degrees, have the pit ball sitting right next with the flame going at about 450 degrees. And then when you get to that 110, we'll move them and just let them set, not put them all on the pit boss, and then sear right over that flame till you get to about that that perfect 125 mark. That way you're not gonna overcook them. And by doing them all at once, and you just let them set, sear them, done. And then when you're searing them, throw you a slab of a little stick of butter, but let that melt all through it.

SPEAKER_01

You need to buy that garlic butter. Cooking.

SPEAKER_03

Garlic butter.

Fall-Off-The-Bone Ribs

SPEAKER_01

I I think that's the way to do it right there, is go ahead and so oh you guys, I gotta tell you something. So John he has that that little green egg thing, and he decides to make me a fish on it. Was it cod?

SPEAKER_03

It might have been.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know what he did, but it was no good.

SPEAKER_03

Terrible.

SPEAKER_01

No good, terrible.

SPEAKER_03

Two thumbs down.

SPEAKER_01

Rubbery, it was so bad. Compare this tuna steaks. The tuna steaks were so good, but this was just a lot of tuna steaks lately.

SPEAKER_03

I've been doing that. I cooked some tuna steak on the Vivor and on the Blackstone. Really good. Crank that thing, I cranked that Vivor up to 500 degrees and then just sear them a couple minutes each side. Holy moly. Now that is some good uh tuna steak right there.

SPEAKER_01

Made the whole house smell good, but it was smoky in here.

SPEAKER_03

I didn't even set off the fire alarm.

SPEAKER_01

I'm surprised.

SPEAKER_03

Speaking of those ribs, I jump into a couple of comments that I see here about ribs. Uh Regina Silver said those uh ribs look amazing. She loves a well-seasoned rib. And I'm with you there. I mean, season them all the way. Uh I like to season them so that you can't really see the rib. Now, with your uh Montreal is a little harder, but but you get something.

SPEAKER_01

But it was good. You like put mustard on it, right?

SPEAKER_03

So I always I like to use mustard as a binder.

SPEAKER_01

See, and it's stuck and it tasted delicious.

SPEAKER_03

And and I like to do that. Also, griddle cookie and more. Doug said, I'm uh I'm new, I'm new to the Montreal version. I like that rack. It's amazing what you can do with it.

SPEAKER_01

My keto on the Montreal. Is that what it is? Is that what he's talking about? Or something else? Well, like my spices. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

And uh so appreciate that. Also, Cooking with Sherry said, I made ribs today, but she made hers in a crock pot.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, we I've done that before. You know, it the best ribs I have ever, ever ate is my husband's mom's ribs. She used to kick them in the oven, and they were so, so good. Remember with the sauce, and I don't know how she would do it, but she made some really good ribs.

SPEAKER_03

And I think that uh she cooked them pretty hot, like you know.

SPEAKER_01

They were fall off the bone on those ones quick and fast.

SPEAKER_03

Didn't take long to cook them.

SPEAKER_01

She had like foil and stuff, all and but the sauce, oh my god, it was so good.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Yeah, yeah, they were really good. And also that now these that I did, the bone just come right out. And I was I was looking at this because Annie's smoking pot commented on the same video. Wow, that bone came right out nicely done, John.

SPEAKER_01

We like it that way, but I know that that some people would say no on it. But oh my gosh, anything that falls off the bone, it's gets good.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah, I I like it to pull right up. That's on the list. I was looking at those the prices are a bit steep.

SPEAKER_01

I know. It's expensive.

SPEAKER_03

I gotta make sure I if I get that, I gotta make sure I'm mastered to cook the thing. I I gotta I gotta strategically cook that. I I gotta be zoned in.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, because I think he did lamb once and I did not like it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I've I've that was a fail. Some some cuts of meat is a fail for sure. For sure. So yeah, a tomahawk is something that uh, you know, would we that might be uh would a reverse sear it kind of, you know, slow smoke it and then sear I and then you want to cut into it. I I've never cooked one. Um so that doesn't.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but we've watched like the what is that show?

SPEAKER_03

Uh Netflix has a barbecue pit mash. I think it's the barbecue. Is it the barbecue pit mash? It's got um uh uh the guy from Oklahoma that's been uh on the company. Yeah, and the cowboy. What the heck's his name? I don't know, babe.

SPEAKER_01

But uh the they did some tomahawks on there, and oh my gosh. Yeah, it looked really good.

SPEAKER_03

I think they and and and caveman style. Do you see that guy? He did a caveman style, just threw it straight on the coals. How about that? Just just you know, I got that solo stove.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And you can just place the meat right on it, not even use a great caveman style. And then you can put the coals in the center and then put them all around the edge of it, you know, and then or put your meat around the edge of it, kind of like a vortex.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Just just once again, caveman style. That's some stuff I'd like to try. I mean, let's take outdoor cooking to the next level. Caveman style right there. Uh, but yeah, that was our ribs and our our uh our ribs that we did, and of course our steak last night, and then the potatoes and the potatoes, and then getting the basketball go put together. So that was a heck of a deal, too.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, and I put together the the kitty tower.

Pizza on the Grill

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, oh, a new kitty tower for the cats, yeah. Uh their old one for the city.

SPEAKER_01

That was easy. You guys were out there forever on the basketball.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah, you know, put it had it put together the son put it together wrong. I think we had to take it apart, it takes it apart like three times, kept putting it together backwards.

SPEAKER_01

But it's up to the well then we lost one of the washers. It was dark outside too. Yeah, so they've been using that all day today.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, they've been playing with it. Let's see what else was on the list that we're gonna talk about.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think anything else. Uh did you finish all the comments?

SPEAKER_03

I do have a more comments here coming up. Uh let's see, we got uh let's check some more comments here. These comments are from our red Baron Pizza.

SPEAKER_00

Stay with us. We'll be right back.

SPEAKER_03

Hey y'all, it's John from the Okie Smoking Podcast.

SPEAKER_01

And I'm Dolores.

SPEAKER_03

We wanted to tell you real quick about something we've been loving in the kitchen lately. The Once For All Meat Slicer.

SPEAKER_01

This slicer was a game changer. You guys, it's perfect for slicing a deep jerky, thin cuts of carne and saw.

SPEAKER_03

But what I really love is it's a feast for making smash burgers. You can slice and grind your own meat fresh and fast.

SPEAKER_01

We even put together a video and a website so you can go to it to see it in action. Just head to okiesmokin.com slash slicer. That's o-k-i-es m-o-k-in.com slash for the details and links if you want to grab one yourself.

SPEAKER_03

That's Okie Smokin.com slash slicer. Go check it out.

SPEAKER_01

I never got to try that, but you guys, that looked really good. Like it was oven, like a like fire oven almost.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. I love a red baron pizza. And I just cooked it, put some cheese on it. I always like to add some extra mozzarella cheese or any toppings you want to add to it. I'll just get the the basic pepperoni. Although I like the Supremes too, but you just get the basic pepperoni. Add your cheese. If you have some jalapenos, cut it on there. If you have some mushrooms, throw it on there and just kind of elevate it.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. That's what makes the pizza good.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Poor guy outdoors said now that's a frozen pizza. Homemade Food 99 also said uh awesome. Big like. Thanks for sharing. Great video. Stay blessed ever with best wishes. Uh, recipe by Roxy says that's a perfect pizza recipe. Well, thanks. Uh, not much to it. Get a big uh, or not a big, but a uh red baron out of the freezer section at your local uh grocery store, add you a little bit to it, and then yeah, you could throw it in the oven. But throw it, you don't need a big green egg. Throw it if you have a a uh Weber. I've done a pizza on the pit barrel.

SPEAKER_01

Oh man, your that beer cheese pizza. You have to do that and invite the whole family because that was delicious.

SPEAKER_03

Beer, cheese, pizza. That's 100%.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

Yep. With my homemade dough.

SPEAKER_01

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_03

Wow.

SPEAKER_01

I think that would be really good.

SPEAKER_03

Wow, that that's gonna be great.

SPEAKER_01

So they just need to stay tuned for your your uh cinnamon rolls that you're gonna be doing.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And you're supposed to be making cookies with the grand baby.

SPEAKER_03

That's that we're still gonna do that. That's gonna be great because I got uh we'll just put that pizza stone and then we'll put the uh what's that paper, the parchment paper over it, and then just put your cookies right on top of it. Cooking.

SPEAKER_01

Are you guys making a whole cookie or like just like little ones?

SPEAKER_03

We'll start out with little ones. We may do a whole one, but we take it, take it one step at a time. Um I don't know. You may talk me into doing one whole one. And what I I can you can take some foil and you just wrap them up and then put them on the grate and then put the pizza stone on it, and that'll elevate a little higher.

SPEAKER_01

Can you bake a pie on there? Sure.

unknown

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

So you'll have a blog post and the videos and all that, and you'll be able to find them all there. But you can also find them all on the YouTube channel as well. So you can check all that out, everything we talk about. You got a whole big green egg playlist, six videos so far, and more to come. I'm looking here at some other videos that uh had comments. Uh, one of them is our leftover barbecue turned into a killer breakfast burrito. Now, I don't know if we talked about that.

SPEAKER_01

That's the brisket, not brisket, the pork shoulder.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, yeah, that was our pork shoulder video. Uh JB Jay Banks said, hey, bud, looks like a nice, easy way to use leftovers to me. And that's what I'm saying. When you cook a pork shoulder, you can have multiple. Yeah, you it's not you have mills, not just a meal.

SPEAKER_01

I I honestly like making it out of like dip.

SPEAKER_03

Dip, pork shoulder, dip is freaking awesome. And I did uh I woke up one morning and went out there and used the black stone, put that brisket all over it, added some cheese, probably added jalapenos. I mean, if you know me.

SPEAKER_01

Of course. There's probably one of the two.

SPEAKER_03

I probably added an egg. I can't remember, maybe bacon. I don't know, I don't know what I put in it, and then just wrapped it up at a tortilla and then went ahead and seared both sides on that black store.

SPEAKER_01

Chorizo with the pork shoulder. I guarantee that.

SPEAKER_03

Chorizo. How do you say that? Chorizo. Chorizo. And that that kind of gives it a little spice too, don't it?

SPEAKER_01

Yes, I like we like the spices today.

SPEAKER_03

We do like the spices. There's not much we don't eat with a kick.

SPEAKER_01

Exactly.

SPEAKER_03

With a kick. Also, someone said on uh this thorough tutorial was great. Making ribs for the first time tomorrow, giving it a shot. Have that listed under the leftover barbecue video. But that's not it. So appreciate it. Uh, you're gonna be making some awesome ribs. I know it. Let us know about it.

SPEAKER_01

Let us know like how it turned out.

Comments and Viewer Feedback

SPEAKER_03

One more comment we'll look at, and this is from an older video. I find some of these uh tutorial videos they just continue to get views. I have an easy guide cleaning your pit boss pellet grill temperature uh sensor, which in our last podcast episode we talked about actually replacing it because the sensor did go out, and replacing it was not all that difficult. It was a little bit of work and getting to it, and and you just got to be careful. Uh just unplug it, take out some screws, carefully remove the wires, and then uh put the new one in and put it back together. But this person said, Thank you for this, had no idea this existed, and mine was pure black, cleaned after heating up the grill a bit. It's pure silver after and working better. So I appreciate that. Comment also, you can comment on any YouTube channel, and we have a random way we select some and uh feature them on our show. Of course, you can as always text us at right here at Buzz Sprouts. You just click on the link in the show notes of your podcast platform and just send us a text. We'll get it and talk about it in a future episode. So always enjoy getting texts from you guys as well. Just say hi, enjoy it, hello, how you doing? Tell me what you cooked, and uh that would be awesome. If you want to email us, the only email we're using now is Okie Smoking.

It may or may not be working when you go to it. Is there anything else you would like to add?

SPEAKER_01

Nope, I'm good.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_01

Uh remember the cinnamon rolls.

SPEAKER_03

That's right. So we're gonna we're gonna get those cinnamon rolls. So these are just some cinnamon rolls that are in a can. We're gonna roll them out and test them on the big green. Now it'll be a real short and easy video. Might get some cookies in, may not. We're also oh, wasn't it the wings?

SPEAKER_01

What day are you doing the cinnamon rolls?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

Just don't do it on Friday.

SPEAKER_03

What what's wrong with Friday?

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I heard that the grandbaby invited his friends over.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay. Yeah, well. They come over and they eat eat them all up.

SPEAKER_01

No, it'd probably be rambunctious out there.

SPEAKER_03

And rambunctious too, bouncing everywhere. That'd be well, we got that basketball go, so we just throw them out there to burn off their energy now.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know about that.

SPEAKER_03

It'd be gonna be so hot they stay in the pool too.

SPEAKER_01

So yes.

SPEAKER_03

They had some watermelon uh that they were eating uh the plans in the pool and hanging over the edge and everything.

SPEAKER_01

So I don't blame them. Yeah, it's been hot here lately.

SPEAKER_03

Go throw some hoops and then go jump in the pool because it's our rainy season is finally gone. Yeah, the rainy season's over. The drought is here. We've had to fix our water pipe in the front so that we can water the line. It's starting to die out. So we're gonna go ahead and start doing that. Haven't had to do that at all yet, but trying to keep the grass.

SPEAKER_01
