Relatives came over today, perfect time for mixing in some new things in with tried and true.
First up, ribs four ways. All 6 racks start of with EVOO, Plowboys, cayenne/habanero powder and on to the MAK at 225 for 30 mins then up to 275 for a little less than two hours. These are just about ready for FL. Four with butter and brown sugar and two with homemade hot wing sauce.
This one just came out of FL, mmmmm, I think it will get JD sauce.
Two racks get finished with homemade hot wing sauce, two with BBQ sauce, and two with homemade Jack Daniels sauce (mix of Tenthunter and Meathead's recipe's).
While the ribs were cooking I prepped three experiments. These were inspired by posts from Cowgirl, Chili, Spinny, and others. First up was a pulled pork roll. The filling was shredded cabbage, carrots, pulled pork, and lime juice.
This mix was rolled up in pie dough and onto the MAK at 400 until brown. These turned out really well (had a little trouble with them sticking to the frog mats) and the only thing missing was a good sweet and sour sauce.
Next I cooked up some jalapeno's, onions, and garlic and mixed in with the pulled pork and two different cheeses.
I then placed pie shells in a muffin pan. Six of these were filled with the pulled pork mixture, the other 6 would be dessert. Three shells were dusted with brown sugar and the other three with a brown sugar, cayenne/habanero powder mix. Then they were filled with cherry pie filling and a chocolate truffle placed in the center of each. All twelve were then covered with crust and baked in the MAK at 400.
Ready to go.
I was really pleased with how well the pulled pork pie turned out.
However, the mini cherry pies were the stars of the experiments, even the hot pepper ones were a big hit!
