It’s been a long time since I visited my thoughts here. Lost interest in blogging and also just so
dang busy with everything else I just never got to it.
Today I plan to re purpose this blog.
Lately I have been looking into a new hobby of competition BBQ: Cooking
in general really with a focus on smoking and BBQing. I just like to try new stuff and see if I can
accomplish it. My wife has been egging
me on to start a page, in lieu of that, I figure this is just as good and will
allow me to develop my hobby craft while recording it for posterity.
My first installment is to begin the planning for the weekend tests. I will be purchasing some spare ribs, baby
backs, country style ribs, and steak. I
will be smoking the ribs on Sunday. The
steak I plan to make my wife some Philly Cheese Steak sandwich while I work on some
jambalaya all day on Saturday since she doesn’t care for that.
I have developed a rub which I want to tweak and will work on a sauce
as well. I want to make a sauce that reminisces where I am from, the foothills
of Tennessee so I may dabble in some apple butter seasoned sauce with a little
heat to it.
So if you feel like watching this journey and learning some stuff with
me, as I will be teaching myself and learning through failure a lot, then
follow along.
