Pork Shank with White Beans is looking like a good option for tomorrow.
Cooking
Outdoor cooking experiments—primarily on my Big Green Egg and new Traeger grill—are documented here. Posts recount brisket attempts, sous‑vide pork butt sessions and holiday tenderloin traditions, with candid notes on smoke, temperature and results.
At the inaugural grilling class at Kitchen Windows new space! Awesome! I’d be happy to live on the new grill deck at Kitchen Window. It is hard to not be smug when you have a Big Green Egg at grilling classes. :-)
Intermediate stage for porterhouses on Big Green Egg. Firing up to 700 °F to finish.
Holiday Cookies party with friends! Awesome day!

- Picking up two whole beef tenderloins for tonights grilling extravaganza! I (heart) Clancey’s.
- I really need to learn to call my meat order ahead to Clancey’s. Let them prep ahead of time.
- Getting whole beef tenderloin at the butcher is like having your birthday at Applebees - everyone claps and congrats abound.
- Getting whole beef tenderloin at the butcher is like buying a MacBook at the Apple Store. “Congratulations!” and big smiles.
- Man, there goes more arm hair courtesy of the Big Green Egg.
- I’m experimenting with the tenderloins tonight. Hopefully I won’t regret it. 😕
- Tenderloins were great. Consensus around the table is the coffee beat the pepper crusted.
