Upon my return from the mercado, I decided to give us bbq lovers a thread to follow today. I picked up a couple packs of baby backs and plan to offer some posts that may teach one of us a thing or two. I will be attempting pinto beans in a pressure cooker for the first time. I will also be smoking some cheddar and ghouda elbow macaroni. Feel free to chime in on your recipes as well.

Dang close to mine FF!
Just started the fire in the egg. I've got a couple of small pork loins to do for tomorrow first. I cook them well done and serve cold with some sauce or jelly. I smothered the both in evo then on the first one I showered with crushed black pepper and garlic salt. The second one I used cayenne pepper, lowrys, and a few sprinkles of my dried ghost peppers.

Pork loins are cooking indirect at 400. The ribs are in the lineup. After I removed the membrane I put a little mustard on them for binding. I like all kinds of rubs and have going through some I got for Christmas. Today I am using Rufus Teague and adding my own to it. I like to do light coats and recoat about an hour into it before I baste with apple juice. I added some crushed pepper, fajita seasoning, and a little cayenne on one rack. The girls prefer non-spicy so on one the other rack I added a little extra garlic powder and some cummin.

Beans are in the pressure cooker. A bunch of stuff, including bbq sauce, fiesta pinto bean seasoning, pepper, bacon grease from this morning, salt pork, a splash of shiner, some onion and garlic powder, and stuff. About to pull the ribs off and start the mac and cheese.

Boiled a whole bag of elbow pasta for 8 minutes with a little salt and some evo. Drained and mixed in a half stick of butter and half thing of cream cheese. Pour in pan and added diced ghouda and some colby. Put on the egg for about 45 minutes and topped with shredded sharp and drizzled some bread crumbs on top.

Ribs could have used some foil for another 20 minutes, but wife likes the bark instead of tender. One sweet with sauce and the other dry and spicy.

Ran out of bacon so I cheated with bacon pieces.

I use the hickory lump in the green bag at heb. I threw some wet apple chips in at the beginning. Mac would have been better with some bacon. I had to add 10 minutes to the beans. First time cooking in it, not bad. I'm my worst critic. Plates were cleaned quicker than I could sit down.

Everybody's bellies are full, we're watching Bambi and nobody likes my commentary.

I'm gonna have to try this smoked mac N cheese. I've got an oven baked recipe that I use and I bet the smoker makes it even better. Everything looks good!
