#ChefVerc, to replace Paula Deen's old series on cooking channel

Needs a reality competition cooking show to earn the spot.

Would like to see Chef Verc on Chopped. Would be a good show for a Braves fan, no?

I'll handle it

Will have to try those, though I am so used to grilling them I am not sure I can break the habit

The Brown method works perfectly with my drinking lifestyle. Wrap the slabs in foil with their braising liquid, throw them in the oven and turn it to 225, then go to the pub for the rest of the afternoon. When you get home, all that's left is to boil down the liquid down into a glaze and broil for two minutes. Once or twice a year I barbecue a pork shoulder, by which I mean building a fire on Friday night and staying up all night, but I do the ribs all the time because it's so little work. Great meal when drinking company's in town.

Like I said.. Have you people never been to the lake?

That's fine dining after a couple (dozen) beers

Whoa, whoa, whoa... What do mean "you people"?


But seriously, if I'm on the lake we are coming back and firing up the grill and throwing big slabs of red meat on that butch.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

But I get the point, quick and easy.. But I like my food prepared like I like my whiskey distilled, slow, patient and with crafty love.

If y'all are really interested in a delicious drunken gorge after a long day on the water..

Get your hickory smoker loaded, buy a 5lb log of bologna (yes, bologna) slice the center and stuff with jalapeños. Season to your preference (I prefer spicy) wrap it in foil throw it in the smoker. Slow cool it all day, rendezvous at the smoker hours later, cut in chunks eat as is or dip in BBQ sauce.

Nothing says SWAG like slow cooked bologna...

Sweet Jesus. My Braves thread is now a strange mix of soccer talk and baloney recipes. Who are you people?

You still have your golf thread though

You still have your golf thread though

I'm sure it will soon get overtaken by 9/11 Truthers and Cross stitch enthusiasts.

This is what happens when you have a 15 game lead in August.

I have a can of Spam in the pantry that's been there since 1996. We could talk about how I should cook it up in three more years.

 

[NochNoch]

Ribs should always be smoked for long periods of time over things on fire, no exceptions and I will listen to no opinions that say otherwise!!!

(have actually tried Alton's way before and it does produce a fairly close facsimile of the real thing)

The way I look at it is this: he gets me 95 percent of the way there with a method that has me sitting in the pub instead of standing around a smoker. I get my pork-smoking fix twice a year with Boston butt. Can't imagine there's any way to move that inside and not have it suck though.

Long ago I read an article about Spam which mentioned that a woman in the UK found a can in her grandmother's pantry that dated from the 40s. They sent it off to Hormel, who opened it up and determined it was still perfectly edible. So I went out, bought a can, and wrote the year on the bottom. That was four apartments/houses ago. Eventually I'm gonna fry it up and see if I die.

Don't disagree one bit and I'm not really that much of a snob about it but I really enjoy the smoking for long periods of time during spring and fall/early winter when the weather is ideal for it. Must say though that I do miss the real smoke flavor while doing them indoors, liquid smoke is close but just not quite the same.

I don't want that event documented anywhere near my obituary.
