Mike, I’d say that was a few pounds. I don’t remember the weight, but was probably about 12” in length I’m guessing. I found these on sale a few months back, buy one get one, so I picked up 4 to use over time. Couldn’t beat that price!

And tonight, I went grillless, all stovetop with a simple tomato sauce and ricotta gnocchi. :) pillows from heaven! Enjoyed this cook - even got my 19yo daughter and 15yo son to help with rolling the gnocchi on the fork.

Man, That’s looks great. My wife saw that picture of the gnocchi and said ‘Now that looks good!’
I threw a few jalapeños into the smoker. I halved them and wrapped them in bacon. Stuffed them with cream cheese, cheddar, and a little leftover pulled pork. That was the appetizer to the pulled pork nachos. It was mostly freezer leftover night and all in all turned out pretty good! Fried rice on the Blackstone tomorrow.

It was very tasty, but not hard:
Reverse sear on the steak no mystery there.

The crab comes out of a can, heat for a minute 45 sec in a glass dish in the microwave. The recipe call for Jumbo Lump but I could only find claw meat here locally.

Hollandaise, Three egg yokes and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a blender beat for 5 seconds. Microwave 1 stick of butter in a large measuring cup until boiling. Slowly pour the melted butter into the running blender, sauce will immediately thicken, blend for a few seconds more. I poured the sauce into a squeeze bottle. put the bottle in a large thermal mug. Fill mug with HOT water.

Put a ring mold on the steak to hold the crab until ready to sauce it.

Thanks Mike,
Pro tip for everyone, use 2 skewers to make rafts of your asparagus for grilling. They cook and turn evenly and no more lost to the grill.

I love Steak Oscar, but have never actually made it myself. I love to order it especially when on company trips and I can use the company card. ;)

Expense accounts are the best. We had a Union rep take eight cops out for drinks and dinner. He wouldn't tell us the tab but did say we set a record.

Truly not an expensive meal to make at home. The crab was $9.99 a can. I could have gotten by with one can for four people, but I used two. You probably normally have steak and eggs at the house.

I am patiently waiting for the final few degrees.......enjoying the morning on the patio, watching a bit of the Space Station docking, drinking coffee and listening to some wonderful music.

Tri Tip tonite with a side salad and corn on the Cobb. Reverse seared it after smoking and it turned out pretty good. Wife likes hers a little more done so had to let it go a little farther than I like. Nevertheless, a solid cook. Hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable weekend. Cheers

Love me some tri tip! What did you rub it with Mike?

Also, had a good turnout with the pork butt. Really enjoyed the Oak Ridge BBQ Competition pork rub. Got great park and added a little Blues Hog BBQ sauces, original as well as the red, which I loved! Had never had the red sauce from Blues Hog.

Hope everyone enjoyed the weekend and got some smoking in!

Great looking pork butt Jeremy! I had the Blues Hog BBQ sauce in my online shopping cart but didn’t pull the trigger. Maybe I need to get that.
As for my rub when it comes to beef I always keep it very simple. Salt, pepper, garlic blend and in it goes. We enjoyed the Tri tip but I think I spoiled my wife with the beef tenderloin I did a while back! Ha!

Just took this 9 lb. butt out of my #3 and she’s headed for the cooler to hang out for a while. Mixing up a vinegar base sauce to throw on it. Hope everyone is having a great weekend
