We had our family feast yesterday, not much planned for today, so it's leftovers and naps on the schedule.

Did a 5 bone rib roast on the Traeger at 225. I ran out of Q Pellets and went back to Traeger pellets - they seem to cook faster, the last roast cooked for about 7 hours, this one was done in 4 hours. I pulled it off at 123 degrees and placed it in a pan covered with foil and and blankets for about 3 hours until my son and his girlfriend showed up. It was still quite warm and the best f’n rib roast that I’ve ever done. Sorry, but no pics. Once I cut into it it was all over. It was so good. I’ll try to get pics next time.

Over cooked lamb.

An unforced error, I wasn't paying attention and set the stove to high, then went and took a nap. Woke up and could tell things were cooking way faster.

Still edible if not a little dry. A good excuse for drinking more Cab.

Perfect end to this fucked up year.

Mines going on right now.
Phucking friend flaked out this week coming out from Phoenix with his so called girlfriend Long story concerning much drama (his, not mine), and his girlfriend.
They were supposed to be here Thursday for a couple or 3 days, but he kept postponing until yesterday when he called and said they’d be here Monday. Told him forget it, lose my number, and I hung up and put the turkey in the brine.

So yesterday was a wash.
BUT...we are looking at a 20 hour brine in Traeger orange brine mix with a cup (or 2?) of Makers mark added.
Pulled it out this morning and rinsed with refrigerated water, stuffed with apple, oranges, and lemons.
Full coat of canola butter, then under skin stuff with a stick of real butter.
Then full rub using Traeger turkey rub from the kit, and a little beer can chicken rub as well.
Got it on smoke for probably 2 hours (or 110* internal), then jack to 350* until 160 internal...tenting if necessary.

should be done around 2-3 pm.

3 hours in on 200* smoke.
getting ready to Jack it to 350*.
given the extra hour needed to reach 105*, I’ll be tenting it for the first hour at 350* and see how it goes.
Time is not the guideline, it’s all about the temperature.
