Now I’m going to have to throw this in…

5.5- lb boneless lamb leg roast on the smoker for about 4 hours with cherry wood. Also, bunch of garden veggies and herbs about 2 hous on the smoker:

4- 1.5 inch pork sirloin chops and 4- boneless skinless chicken thighs along with the veggies for the smoker:

After they came out:


Like I said before, cook big and then divide it up and vacuum seal. It was all so good. This was all on the same day.

My main motto about dinner is, if you leave hungry, it’s your own damn fault…lol

Hickory is always a good go to for pork. I’ve been partial to some cherry and apple the last couple of butts I’ve done. Gives it just a touch of sweetness!!! How’d yours turn out???

And now since it is cool enough to run the oven, wife made cabbage rolls the only thing not grown, made or harvested is the rice added in the Venison burger :+1:

@Bentstick those look awesome. Couldn’t help but make the comparison as they looked so similar in the picture as to what I remembered. Not a lot of Polish restaurants here and most of the German ones don’t carry them. But there is a Greek-Polish festival that happens once a year here that we go to. I probably eat a years worth on that one single day…

For all ya foodies we have been watching these channels on youtube for a bit

That’s crazy that you mentioned the YouTube Villagers from Europe. I love watching them, it’s so relaxing. And the food they make for everyone looks great. I love how the guy stops to have fresh brewed tea in the middle of his cooks. They did a whole cow episode that was terrific and a sheep one that made me drool while it was on the spit. I’ve been watching for a couple of years now and love them. I feel like when I first started watching the ORIGINAL Iron Chef (first episodes were subtitled before they overlaid the English) and people thought I was crazy. But then it caught on. I feel that way about the Village Cooking show. Thanks for bringing them up.
