Gravy's Cooking Thread

Taking my first run at a brisket. Put it in the Sous Vide Friday evening and it'll be done tomorrow morning around 6am, then smoke for 2 hours. I cut it in half, doing half traditional style and the other half I'm gonna mop some BBQ sauce on it.

Monday I have some pork ribs that are going to get the same treatment. Got a nice pork rub from a co-worker I'm going to try out.

My stuff never turns out presentable, but if it does I'll attach some pics.

Ended up in the sous vide for 40 hours rather than 36 since I didn't want to wake up at 6am to remove them.

Just put em in the smoker for a few hours. I'm looking forward to dis.

I'd be excited too. Where's the invite? We all want to partake of your meat.

Well, I don't think my smoker is cooking at the temperature I set it says it's cooking at.

Basically the ends are ruined but the middle section is salvageable. This was after 1 hour at supposedly 150F (Which was the lowest setting). Kind of disappointing, but oh well.

I made some ribs Monday in the Sous Vide, cooked them for 12 hours then put them in the oven to sear.

They turned out really really good, I feel somewhat redeemed. I'm going to conquer this brisket though.

most of the hippies love their overnight oats.

Whichever type of oatmeal you like best (I'm a fan of steelcut for most uses, but sometimes you just gota have some instant) + liquid of choice + toppings of choice in a container and let it sit overnight. Not technically cooked, but the oatmeal does soak it all up and soften (instant to rolled approximate normally cooked oatmeal, steelcut to irish/scottish ends up being soft but still a lot of chew.) Overnight Oats

Alton Brown did a thing on crockpot/slowcooker oatmeal. Flashback Friday – Alton Brown’s Overnight Oatmeal

Most of the "tech" in oatmeal recipes is negating the 30 min on the stove first thing in the morning; cause aint no-one got time for that.

Look up baked oatmeal. We do some periodically, and we cook up a large pan, and eat it over the next few days. Heat it up, put some milk over it, maybe some brown sugar, definitely add some fruit. It's pretty good.

A friend at work mixes it up and puts it in the fridge and eats it cold, he said he was really skeptical til he tried it.

I don't visit this thread nearly as often as I used too but I'm about to be back in my own house again. The cooking itch is coming back.

Made risotto for the first time last night using this recipe and it turned out pretty awesome.
