After two weeks I will cold smoke the ham on hickory for 24 hours, and then low and slow at 225F on Fogo charcoal
Fresh off the smoker after 8 hours at 225F. 8 inches of snow last night and 10 F, but got it done.

Today my daughter has a birthday, and asked me to cook her favorite dinner. Pork cutlets with wine and soy sauce on the oven and potato salad.

The recipe is very simple. Pork chops in pan, salt, pepper, big onion. I also put some cherry tomatoes that I saw rolling in the fridge. A glass of red wine, soy sauce and some warm water. All this in the oven for about an hour and a half at 180ºC (about 360℉) or until the meat begins to break easily with a fork.
Potato salad - boiled potatoes, salt, sunflower oil, big tablespoon of mayonnaise or two and onions. You can put dill, but I know that this spice is not very popular at you. That's it, да ви е сладко, enjoy your meal, bon appetit, afiyet olsun! :D

Watch the tray in the oven, the cutlets should not be left dry. If necessary, get some warm water. Finally, some sauce should remain in tray. And be careful with salt, soy sauce is quite salty. ::tu::

14 pound boneless, locally raised and wet aged prime rib. I rub it with pickle juice and dijon mustard, then rub down with kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, aleppo pepper, granulated garlic and ancho pepper. Smoked for 4 hours at 250F on post oak, 125F in the middle. It was excellent.

Yum, yum, yummy Eustace.
Reminds me quite a bit of Ukrainian cabbage rolls, only difference is in cooking with tomato sauce (one version, my favorite).
Good stuff dude! ::tu::

This is normal, just 1500 years ago :D the lands of today's Ukraine are part of the Old Great Bulgaria.
The recipe is almost the same, but Ukrainians and Russians use boiled cabbage leaves instead of sour cabbage. Very interesting is the option with vine leaves, but such "sarmi" I will show you in the spring.

Did you ever leave a piece of fresh meat in the fridge, intending to cook it in a day or so? Miss Joy asked me what was I going to do with the tenderloins that are in the fridge? Duh... ::uc:: , "didn't remember them", was my reply. She said they have been in there since the 10th of the month. She threatened to feed them to the dog so I decided make us a little snack. Washed and cleaned the tenderloins, using my old muskrat then wrapped with some bacon and into the oven set on broil. Cut into medallions, she had a couple and I had to finish them off. Still have one for a snack tomorrow. These most tender of venison pieces were seasoned with Everglades seasoning, a Florida made rub, wrapped in maple smoked bacon and then into the broiler. Actually, since I'm such a nice feller, I broil them a bit longer so she can enjoy them otherwise when the bacon started to sizzle they would be ready to consume. ::tu:: They were still tender just not rare enough for my taste.

The secret ingredient is some homemade hot tomato sauce.
