@Jett129 also can try short plate, I’ve had great luck with that cut and it really has a primal Flintstone look to it.
-
@mclaincausey I wish that I could get those and I've asked,even as a special order,and thus far have not been successful. I've had them at BBQ places and when done right,they're amazing.
-
@Jett129 weird!! In NY?!
I hear positive universal praise for these guys: https://wildfork.com/products/prime-bone-in-beef-short-plate-rib/

@mclaincausey I live in NJ,and my small local butcher,who I’ve been going to forever can’t get them. He might be able to get them but since there’s no demand for them other than me,it doesn’t pay.
-
@mclaincausey Second response.Funny, My wife had mentioned it to me as we occasionally pass by it. Looks awesome and will definitely go in next time we’re in the area. Thanks!

@mclaincausey how’s the cleanup with that steel griddle?
-
Had some friends round, including one Greek, so we made souvlaki. I did chicken thigh and pork shoulder skewers, with paprika, sumac, salt and oregano in a rotisserie basket, then served in flatbread with greek salad, tzatziki and chips. I got a couple of videos of the grilling action, but no one got pics of the finished article
-
@bluemantra easy! Water, scraper, wire brush, elbow grease while it’s hot.

It's that time again....

Need your help...I have a bunch of oysters to eat and while I and Laura love them raw, the kids are a little hit and miss. They will eat some, but I was thinking about doing some smoked on the BGE (Big Green Egg).
This is where I need your help/advice/recipe...Does anyone have a favourite recipe that can share?
-
No, but honestly any compound butter will do the trick. Maybe have a couple of varieties on-hand? A classic maî·tre d' butter or maybe a variety with some chipotle or something smokey like Spanish paprika would work really well, as they won't require much time in the Egg, and some added smokey ingredients will make them sing.

@goosehd When I do my oisters on the bbq I just add a little bit of butter and close the lid for about 2-3min on 180°C
Finish off with course salt and your golden
because the time on the bbq is so short, you can smoke em with whatever wood you have, the added flavor should be subtle.
If you want to do stuffed oisters with cheese etc. I'm not the right person to help you, as I feel this completely kills the flavor.
Tip: rinse the oisters beforehand to get rid of the sand and grime. Wait a couple minutes, the oister will re-moisten itself and the flavor of that new liquid will be much softer in flavor.

@goosehd this right fucking here is soooooo goood. Have you had these @jordanscollected ?
-
@goosehd My wife has a recipe where you put a little piece of prosciutto,some Parmesan cheese,melted butter and a drop of that delicious rosé champagne. Kids will sleep good that night. Out of this world. She does it in the oven but I bet it would work on the Egg.

@mclaincausey we have not been to Dragos but I have heard their oysters are incredible. We rep the company who makes the truffle parm for them and i've eaten way too much of that in my life.
Unfortunately my wife doesn't eat seafood, so unless its a po boy shop or similar, we don't frequent the seafood restaurants in NOLA.
Pair that with the fact that we are the loser couple who shares all food, and... well there you have it. -
Haha heard. I don’t usually mix cheese and seafood and generally prefer most oysters raw, but gulf oysters aren’t really that special and are a perfect candidate for a little embellishment.
I like that rosé idea, @Jett129 , sort of subs in for a mignonette
-
@mclaincausey I couldn’t agree more with your opinion on oysters. I was an oyster shucker for a couple of years, and I can’t stand east coast oysters from south of Rhode Island. Oysters from Connecticut down to the gulf are perfect for cooking. Anywhere north or pacific oysters are amazing and need to be eaten raw. No condiments necessary, in my opinion.
-
First attempt using butter and paprika. Going to try more as the night goes on and tomorrow. Buying oysters in bulk is cheaper for me as I have to order them online and have them shipped.
150 total to eat and play around with. Thank you guys for the help and ideas guys!!
