What's that you're eating?

I was in the mood for a big BBQ Beef Rib. 🤗

So, I headed over to my favorite local BBQ joint that only serves them on Sunday (yesterday) & this is what I got:

My first attempt at cooking a pork tenderloin using my smoker.
Just on the smoker.

Pulled them at internal temperature around 150-155. I know, FDA says it's okay to eat pork at 145, but the wife is old school (so am I, sort of), and wasn't hearing it.

So, after they rested around 10 minutes, this is what I had:

Served it with a maple cinnamon Granny Smith apple compote, black eyed peas, a green salad (not shown), and sourdough Italian bread. Not the best plating, but I was running out of steam and didn't feel like prettying it up.

I thought it was pretty tasty, albeit a touch dry, and the boss ate it all, so I guess it was a win. :cool:

If you pull at 140-145, then wrap them in tinfoil, they'll continue cooking. Typically that helps them stay more tender. At least that was the case with the last 3 I've done. In fairness though, I don't bring their final Internal temp much higher than 145.

We've been smoking a different cut of meat 2 meals per day for the last few weeks. It's been fun experimenting and learning!
 
Took a drive to my local REI to cash in my $1 dividend from 2023 (I didn't buy much there last year) and bought 1 of these which I've already eaten:

However, after visiting REI, I walked around the corner to have lunch at restaurant that maintains a full wall of craft beer taps but I didn't realize they also carried some premium whiskeys, including this one that I ordered . . .

To go along with the Ahi Tuna Salad that I also ordered:
