Breakfast: A nice thick banana pancake w/ bacon

And I meal prepped most of my breakfast for the rest of the week. I find eggs only stay good in the fridge for a couple of days, so I'll prep the rest on Wednesday night.

Half dry brined pork chops w/ SPG and chili powder and half chicken sausage w/ scrambled eggs, jalapeno, and onion. The first pic was taken after already cutting up one of the chops.

A co-worker's last day is tomorrow soni thought I'd cook him a reverse seared tritip. Wish I could slice it open because I'm know it's money, bit it's for him and his family. Hope they like meat, otherwise he's going to be in a meat coma for a few days.

Key Largo Fisheries is having a sale of 20% off with coupon code SUMMER. I just saved $50 on stone crabs (and I believe they already are the cheapest online prices for stone crabs). FYI

I thinned my lettuce seedlings to one per cell and now have a micro green salad.

First go at bone in thighs on the new propane grill. I went indirect at 300 for about 2 hours, then when they were temping in the 160's I turned up the heat and seared direct. The house smells amazing. Should be awesome, but nowhere close to charcoal.

I like thighs that way
Get em up to temp off heat while throwing some sauce or spice on em, then crisp to preference

I wrestled with whether to sauce or not, but decided not to sauce. I spiced them prior to throwing them on the grill after drying them off with a paper towel. I went with once spice on the bottom (meat side) and another spice on top. I cooked them meat side down the entire cook until the sear. I really like cooking that way. Dark meat, bone in chick really needs to be in the 180's-190 to break down all the fat and be cooked correctly. 165 is bullshit for dark meat, in my experience.

I cook em hard
I don't know where that chicken has been
Spice can certainly take the place of sauce, plenty of fat and skin to drip down the thigh to keep it from drying out

I picked these up yesterday after seeing my normal louisiana spicy sausage was sold out.

I grilled for an appetizer and they aren't half bad.

It hit these ribeyes with kosher salt, black pepper, and granulated garlic.

I did a reverse sear and even though they tuned out medium instead of medium rare they were really good. I should have used my digital thermometers.
