One does not need to go to Pizza Hut when you live near so many good family-run pizza joints like the Youngstown-area has! ?

I understand. I take what they got. But now Bar-B-Q and authentic Mexican food, we got you there.

I bet! I'm curious how Texas BBQ differs from other types of regional BBQ? And I bet the Mexican food is phenomenal down there.

The secret is in the various BBQ sauces IMO. My son has a friend from HS who had full training as a chef and he has developed a really excellent sauce for his all day smoking and he makes a cream corn out of BBQ corn that has very little cream and rivals anyone's potato salad. The meat just falls off his ribs and melts in your mouth. I have never liked cream corn, but his is absolutely exceptional.

As to Mexican food their country is like ours with various kinds of foods coming from different regions of the country. I lot of different kinds to try here just like BBQs.

I won't go to Pizza Gut even in an emergency. Pappa John's is right behind in the lousy pizza world. MHO is Domino's is at least tolerable from the national brands.

We have at least 10 local places better than either.

Gameday practice, very spicy dry rubbed jalapeno chipotle wings cooked in the air fryer with a side of homemade sweet Alabama white sauce. Friday night munchies. Next up is Sundays dinner. Dry rubbed crispy pork skin with a roasted jalapeno relish, sweet and sour Brussels sprouts w/ homemade bacon and lastly a keto version of smoked Gouda cheesy grits. Yum yum.

So how do those things work and what kind of clean up do they require?

For the wings first dry them REALLY good. Once dry rub them good with a mix of

1/2 tsp kosher salt (plus more to taste)
1 Tbsp smoked paprika
1 tsp granulated garlic
1/2 Tbsp baking POWDER (NOT baking SODA, it's not the same)
1 tsp of chipotle powder
etc etc tailor it to flavors you like, add some brown sugar if you like that bbq chip taste

The key is drying them well and including the baking powder. After rubbed let them sit a good 20 minutes. Put them on the racks in the fryer @ 400F for 22 minutes.

The sauce I make so often when I grill chicken I dont even pay much attention. Essentially do a 1/2 cup of mayo, a good size splash or two of white vinegar, course black pepper, tbsn or so of minced garlic and a sweetener of your choice to taste. Its awesome on all grilled / fried chicken.

Pork belly I did in the Instant Pot to tender. Drained and cooled, sliced into strips. Rubbed the strips with a rub similar to the one above. 20 minutes on the rack at 400F to crisp the outer fat and rehead meat. Delicious. I love fatty succulent pork belly.

Hope that helped, I am not overall a recipe cook so hard to pass along sometimes.

A little smoker food porn while we wait on draft picks. This is from a 17 lb. beef chuck clod I smoked today after I finished 20 lbs. of Canadian bacon. This is a bargain cut of meat for around $3 a lb. Will be doing a lot of this for away games this year hosting friends.

Pics show a few slices, some shredded with smokey au jus , burnt ends and the whole shoulder clod split in two.

Back to the top for the wine aficionados here. I got this sign in Mystic Seaport in a small frame for my library. Spouse approved.??

We always have a traditional July 4th steaks on the grill with all the fixins at my house. My wife has been collection everything stars & stripes for years so the house is filled with them. Also I have a 10 X 6 ft or so original 1876 flag (the year of Custer's last stand and the 1st centennial) which I pin on the wall of the dining room fully visible as you come through the front door entrance. Then we head out for fireworks around 9 that evening if the weather is decent.
