(AW) It's Chilli outside

Hot hot hot

Time to try out the dutch oven! Only one obvious choice for such a cold day, and that is a 3 meat chilli with beer and chocolate. 

What we did

A Smoked 3 meat Chilli - Bacon, Beef, Venison, onion, chipottle chilli, a secret mix of herbs and spices (including more chilli), tomatoes, and larger! Smoked on the egg in a Dutch Oven at 300f for 3 hours (after searing the meat at 400f).

(AW) It's Christmas..............

Time to get a bird hot, moist and stuffed

Ok, after this adventure of Egging, I wouldn't be able to call my self an egger if I din't risk the ultimate meal. Christmas Dinner!

So we prepped the bird, injected her with juice and butter, covered her in bacon (mmmmm bacon) and using the Digi Q, slapped her on the egg on Christmas morning.

The bird was sooooooo moist and tasty. Never gonna have turkey any other way!!!!

Other pressies

Well, Santa was very kind to me, and I got some more BGE kit! A dutch oven, books and some rubs!

(AW) Night Night Piggy

Digi Q works in the dark

Well, the over night low and slow worked a treat. Set the BGE to cook over night at about 200f for about 16 hours!

What we did

Injected with a 50/50 mix of apple juice and cider vinegar, and then rubbed with a mix of 'paprika, sugar, chilli powder, onion granules, black pepper, ancho chilli powder, chipotle chilli powder and garlic granules'. Cooked at 220f until the meat hit 165f, then wrapped it in foil, and back in the egg until the meat hit 190f.

Prepping the Pork

Pork butt injected with a mix of apple juice and cider vinegar, covered in our pork rub, ready for a low and slow tomorrow...

(AW) More Pizzas

Tried the pizza stone with more pizza this time. Again, perfect crispy bases and tasty toppings!

(AW) Perfect Fillet

I've got a steak in the BGE

Again, despite the cold weather, perfect steak makes everything better....

What we did

Seared at 650f for 1 1/2 mins a side then dropped to 350/400f and cooked until the internal temp hit 135f.
