Not a whole lot of meat on these and turned out really to be nothing more than an afternoon snack, but man, were they tasty. Reader's recipe is ingenious. I served the final product alongside a few shots of Jägermeister of course. The little guy had apple juice in the event you were wondering. What a great day.Thanks for looking!

After letting it rest a few minutes, I sliced it up and served it with a rosemary and butter roll and my tomato salad. Overall, I'd say this cook was a huge success. Knowing exactly how close to place the fuel source to the meat is a little tricky when using a rotisserie. But, I'm figuring it out. The rabbit came out moist and was not gamey at all. It tasted really good, almost like chicken. Thanks for looking.

Final product served with a creamy horseradish sauce, mushroom couscous and fresh green beans. I'm a lucky guy to have friends that are so generous. Both roasts were absolutely delicious. However, my family and I really enjoyed the Oakridge BBQ recipe the best. Thanks for looking!

Finished product. For my first time makin' bacon, it came out fantastic! It was meaty and without a lot of fat. Next time I will leave it in the cure for an extra two or three days and maybe only soak it 5 hours. I feel soaking it 10 hours with two water changes extracted too much of the spice. Also, I will smoke it at a much lower pit temperature as it reached my desired internal tempertaure too quickly and without having spent enough time in the smoke chamber. I may perhaps even cold smoke it the next time.

Not including the time it took to marinade the shrimp, this whole meal took approximately 30 minutes to put together, including the cooking time. Finished product was served alongside Cuervo and lime! Needless to say, my guests were happy, happy, happy!

I served the brisket with my buddy GQ's homemade pickles, my wife's fabulous Puerto Rican rice and Dinosaur Bar B Q Sensuous Slathering Sauce. Being only my first (and second) full packer I've cooked, I was extremely pleased and so were our guests. Thanks for looking!

Took the foil off, shred it and let it cook down (uncovered) for another 45 minutes allowing the liquids to reduce.
