Interesting...the 3-2-1 method is many competition folk (including me) do ribs.  Works very well.  I don't use much mesquite, will use for beef in a pinch.  Pecan is nice.

 

I think pecan is actually my favorite for red meat or pork. 

Mesquite can be overbearing on the smoke for some people.  I like working with it, once it gets started and I don't mind the heavy smoke, but it is a bit much for some.

I've also taken a liking to peach when I want a fruit wood.  Nothing against apple or cherry, both of which I have had good luck with.

I think i have gained five pounds just by reading this thread.

Sounds like it will be a rib cook off this weekend. Elk ribs, wild boar ribs, beef ribs and pork ribs.

[Captain Morgan]

here's an extremely simple recipe for cooks of any level, and one that has a good bit of a wow factor.  You don't even have to cook anything.  It's a perfect summer dish, great for brunch and parties.

If you really want to impress someone, you can tell them that it's shrimp ceviche.  You can buy frozen cooked shrimp, even cocktail shrimp, just make sure they are peeled.

 

Bloody Mary Shrimp

pound of cooked shrimp, chopped
3/4 cup bloody mary mix ( get a spicy one)
1.5 teaspoon of celery salt
juice of 1 lime
2 tbl minced cilantro
2 tbl minced red onion
1 diced avocado
hot sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Put the shrimp in a plastic bag, add the bloody mary mix, half the lime juice and the celery salt.  Let it marinade in the fridge for at least 2 hours, 3-4 is better.   Drain and add the other ingredients.  

serve with chips, plantain chips, or over rice.  Can be a meal or an appetizer.

I know Kungfu is bringing the makers mark. If no one brings other boozes, I got a few bottles of costco's finest wine i could share. Start on the makers, end on the cheap stuff when taste doesnt matter..

Also need someone on desserts even though theres NO CHANCE at all Id save room given all the meats and veg in this wonderful thread. Times I miss having a garden and other I dont, I was about to declare war on the deer and walmart always had cheap veg in stock each day.

That’s a SoCal tailgate favorite….easy, tasty, inexpensive and can be rolled up in a tortilla to take into the game.

tri-tip in all kinds of different marinades and rubs, is also popular, from a Santa Maria rub to a bulgogi marinade.  Seafood salads and ceviche also popular.  I’m getting hungry.  
 

*the small town I was born and raised in, was the town the Calavo HC was located.  You could walk down a street, or walk along the roads with orchards and pick up avocados for free.  Growers would put out a crate filled with avocados you could take.

10 hour boston butt on hickory

And wings on apple wood

Smoked wings are one of the most underrated foods in existence. They completely destroy standard fried wings.
