If we need a northern territory mod, I think I'm the mod of a place that's completely off the map of westeros. Stark doesn't even come out here, because the ride takes too damn long. But when the ten other people that live out here need administrated, by golly.....

We're thinking of moving over your way.

I cook mine in a crock-pot; today, oven space is at a premium and I am baking cookies. I'm making a nice pot roast with carrots, onions and yukon gold potatoes. I sear my roast in a cast iron pan, but I melt bacon grease in it first, while I coat the roast in sea salt and coarse ground pepper. After I sear a nice crust on it I pop it in the crock-pot and dump veggies on top of it, add 1 1/2 cups of water and a couple of bay leaves and put it on low for 8 or so ours. I'll try and remember to post a photo, but it's not going t be as pretty as if I had put it in the oven...

Just off the smoker 3.5 hrs on 300, with a 375 warm up temp. You open the smoker , temp drops an easy 15 - 25* Lets see how it looks inside once it sits 1/2hr. Removed @ 130*

Now that's a sight to behold.

BUT WAIT MOM, THERE'S MORE...................

Done just a tad more than i like.
But.. it's the first go at one on the smoker. I did the seasoning / rub (24 before) cooking. The spouse handled the cooking of the roast, veggies. I was on au jus & rolls duty. Our friends did the taters & wine.



We try to make as much use of the grilling area as possible when cooking. 2 -3 different meats are the norm. Then next day vacuum sealed and in the freezer it goes. it's much easier to defrost and reheat than go , mmm what are we cooking tonight.

mrs belly got me a bluetooth keyboard for my ipad. this thing is kinda neat because now I have a computer keyboard without actually having to fire up a full computer....


I see mysrelf being the recipient of a "1st World Problems" meme or two: "I can't type fast enough on my ipad, but I don't want to fire up a full computer."


whatever, I like it.

this should make my ho-ing that much easier from the house, honestly.

AND now i can actually use my lap to type on.... that means that I can ho it up from my second office!!!!

[TheBelly]

I might need to read the manual on this thing, just because theres a couple of buttons I'm not sure what their 2nd function is..
