Leg quarters
Beat me to it. Just picked up a 10 lb bag and will dry brine overnight, smoke, and pull for tacos and phillys. Also smoking the onions, peppers, and shrooms; some amped up saltines, and homemade bean dip. Pit work should all finish in about 2 hours. Pool party for 12.

I got a 18 lb shoulder clod to cook starting Friday AM. It will go all day and then finish in the breville (if it fits).
Brisket will start tomorrow evening and finish in the breville overnight and then go in a cooler to be ready for Friday dinner.

Costco has a two pack of sirloin cap steaks that are good smoked then seared over flame. Slice thin and top with a Chimichurri sauce.

Where’d you get that. I’ve only seen that cut at Kreuz in Lockhart.
Pork belly is coming along. Also threw some HEB brisket Queso on the pit at the rental I’m at right now.
Check out the pit. Closely.

Sorry, been preoccupied with the hill country flooding. My daughter was a counselor earlier this summer at Camp Mystic.
I got the shoulder clod at a local grocery store, Bill’s Country Market in Sealy, Texas.

It’s incredibly heartbreaking.
We were in Llano for the 4th and it had some epic flooding. We evacuated last night at midnight. I came seconds away from getting swept away on a creek pass. It was so dark and I almost did not see the 4 feet of rushing water going across the pass and I was only about 10 yards yards away from driving right into it. It scared the shite out of me. Turned around and fortunately found another way out.

The pork belly was fantastic. They just melt in your mouth wonderfully. I did half with a honey brown sugar glaze that I braised it in, then just did the rest in butter. I chopped some of them up and put them on slider buns. It was a very easy cook. Would do it again.
