The baby backs just started their third hour on coals. Seasoned with salt, white pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and smoked paprika. I don't wrap and just put some honey on. They'll probably go another hour or so.
The beef was dry brined with salt, then seasoned with coarse salt, coarse pepper and coarse garlic. I just pulled it sliced an onion, cut butter into TB pads, placed the butter and the onion on the beef three layers of wrap and a foil pan. The beef probably has 2-3 more hours.
Here we go Brownies, here we go! (Hoo, hoo!)

Dear MJP, what blasphemous mockery is this?
Split pea soup is part of Dutch heritage, and made with 'rookworst' (smoked sausage)! Having it without is like having a grilled cheese sandwich without cheese. You might as well have left out the peas!

Better yet just leave out the peas and give me a smoked sausage sandwich. I'll decide which BBQ sauce to use.?

Well HI to our Korsou Dawg and others, I recently came across several split pea soup and different variations so I wanted to get out some of my normal simple, easy to do and understand to our friends and followers here PLUS they must be delicious for the average of my 35 to 40 usual email viewers and my TBB group here. ...... not always easy to do.
Sometimes it is very easy depending on the recipe, afterall how complicated can SPLIT PEA SOUP be ? We are in the casserole, chili and soup season right now ..... one of my favorites of the year ..... and it makes the house smell so good.
I will follow this rather simple SPLIT PEA SOUP recipe with a few additional variations that first I (and my scratch cook wife) like and follow my normal easy to do and of course always delicious .
SO " hang in there " I've got more to do on this simple but delicous soup and related recipes.
~AND ~ Bon Appétit , good appetite (also bon appetit ) a phrase, originally from French, meaning "good appetite". said to someone who is about to eat, meaning "I hope you enjoy your food". mjp.
