What's cooking today? šŸ”„ Pics are necessary!

How did you go about cooking them?
Iā€™m thinking this is a good novelty item for when I have people over. Not a staple or anything.
I just went 225Ā° and left them until the bacon was rendered to how I like it. Use thin sliced bacon so it cooks quicker and don't double layer the bacon. Just enough to wrap and overlap loosely
 
Brisket Flat, cooked this on Sunday for Bills football! Hope everyone is doing great!

Here is a screenshot of the FireBoard readout. Note the red numbers are a high temp alarm and the blue are low temp alarms. Really nice to have on cold overnight cooks.And I dropped a probe outside to track outside ambient temp.

I had great success on pork belly burnt ends. I got some pork belly already cut into strips, it was a 5 lb package from Costco. Cut into cubes, covered with Meat Church Honey Hog rub, smoked about 3 hours then put in covered foil pan with my own BBQ sauce, butter, and honey then cooked another hour or so until meat temps was around 200. I used my smoke tube and a modified smoke box, actually had a decent smoke I could live with.

Spatchcock Christmas Turkey. Pre glaze, post glaze and finished. With some sausage stuffing from the Traeger website.
Turkey was spatchcocked then brined in MC bird bath for 24 hours. Rinsed , dried and seasoned with MC Holy Voodo and back in the fridge overnight. 3 hours at 275ā€™ and it was done. Sooo tasty. Merry Christmas everyone!

Iā€™m wondering if anyone else had an issue with the controller being so cold it wouldnā€™t operate? It was 8 degrees Saturday morning and I barely could see the display, after a little bit it went out and couldnā€™t get it to come back on. House later at 25 degrees it worked but was a little slow. Today I tried it and itā€™s fine. Iā€™m seeing a lot of people cooking at colder temps and wondering if or what ? Thanks

No trouble but my InkBird didnā€™t want to read out early on.
 
Leftovers tonight

Well, remember the brisket I smoked 2 weeks ago? Well this is what it was for. I made brisket chili for Christmas Day and didnā€™t get a picture because it disappeared too fast. This one is for a casual chili cook off at work. If you havenā€™t ever done this, donā€™t. It will ruin all other chili for you. šŸ˜
