I'm so hungry right now I think I'd take hot Summer smoked grill pr0n over smoking hot Summer-girl pr0n.

And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling.

You be crazy!

I'd rather have a full bottle in-front-of-me than a full frontal lobotomy.

Just sayin'.

Smoked chicken wings today. 
Tough recipe.  30-40 wings, 3 chunks wild apple wood, 225F, baste with Louisiana hot sauce every hour.  Three or four hours in the Weber Smokey Mtn.

I may throw them on the very hot grill to crisp-up the skin afterword, though it's hard messing with a tried-and-true recipe. 8)

Searing them for a couple minutes or so on each side after smoking really made for some great tasting wings.  Dipping them in sauce would have been like putting A1 on Kobe steak.  Not a humble statement, but they really were that good.  Consider the recipe changed.

Eric

I had bought a nine-pound half of a bone-in hickory-smoked ham from a local small store literally next door to their processing plant -- we've bought their bacon before, and it's some of the most-lean and best-tasting I've had.

Followed these directions, but in my smoker.
We also used the very, very tasty apricot glaze which Pearl had made as it smoked.

When the meat came up to 130F, I transferred it to a hot grill to properly caramelize the glaze.

I'm not sure if the biggest compliment was Pearl's mother saying how she hadn't had a real (non-boneless) ham in many years, or how it reminded her of Easter meals in the past, or that she kept nibbling on it even into the evening.

So, when's everyone coming down?
