Dry brined for three days and just slathered on a concoction of fresh thyme, parsley, chopped garlic, Dijon mustard, and olive oil. I'm throwing it on the pit boss in a few minutes at 225.

Smoking completed at 3.5 hours, temping at 115.

I let it rest for a half hour and I'm temping at 124.

Hit the charcoal and seared for a few minutes per side. I should have done indirect heat, but it's not the end of the world.

Medium rare, nailed it.

I mean the soup was good yesterday, but now that I remembered to add some cheddar to the top and let it melt a bit, this is on a whole new level.

Breakfast: Eggs, chorizo, & spinach.

Lunch: I made Christmas dinner for lunch this week. Actually, I made Thanksgiving dinner because I bought some of this stuff for Thanksgiving, but ended up going elsewhere for Thanksgiving and never got to use this. I butterflied a tenderloin, seasoned it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and an Italian seasoning blend, closed it back up, seasoned it on the outside with the same, seared it on the stove, and finished it in the oven where the veggies were already roasting with the same seasonings.

Dinner: I made spinach soup for the week. Tonight, I had salmon with it. The soup has sauteed spinach and feta under the salmon and both raw spinach and spinach chips as garnish.

Here is my meal prep for the week along with overnight oats for breakfast tomorrow. I also prepared and froze some fruit for smoothies. One of which will be breakfast on Tuesday.

It isn't much to look at, but damn it's delicious. Based on one of my favorite sandwiches, the Crab Po' Boy from Local Ocean Seafood in Newport, Oregon, a crab & cheese omelette with salsa verde. The cheese is Tillamook aged white cheddar.

With plenty of delicious salsa left.

I marinated chicken in Tampico and spices, then grilled it with serranos coated in olive oil. After that I took Arabic flat bread, hummus, tzaziki, shredded cheese, then chopped chicken, serranos, Mexican cabbage salad, and heated up on the George foreman for a panini press effect. I didnt get a nice shot of the finished product because I was hungry and didn't think about it at the time. Here is the one that didn't make it into my stomach. This was unfuckingreal fam.

I had a calzone style omelette for lunch too, but I didn't take any pictures. Pepperoni, ricotta, pizza sauce, eggs, and Italian seasoning. It was delicious.

3lbs of arrachera from my local market with their secret seasoning and marinade.
1000001322.jpg
I bought a bag of lump wood charcoal and made a 20% mix with Kingsford. The first time I cooked completely with the lump and I'm surprised the fire department wasn't called. 20% still gives off ridiculous smoke.
1000001325.jpg
Last batch of meat and then 2lbs of serranos. Smoke died down.
1000001327.jpg
I hit everything with Mexican lime and then finishing salt on the serranos.
