I forget to answer your question westadad, try a mixture of the Pecan & Cherry woods The other woods are better for smoking larger bits of meat. |

There was a BBQ festival in my city the last three days so Saturday I did some ribs with a sweet/smokey dry rub, smoked them with pecan wood, and mopped them with a homemade sauce the last 20 minutes of cook time. Tonight I made Thai chicken sate and roasted some zucchini and onions from my garden. Kind of a weird combination but it was tasty. Have a good week everyone!

Yumm-Oh!!! I haven't tried pecan wood (they don't sell it at WalMart :D all I can find is hickory and mesquite) I did use some citrus wood once for Jamaican Jerk and it was tasty. |

Hi Guys, Hey ATP!! I am totally hooked on the pecan at the moment. Going to try some split chicken later in the week and hope for leftovers for chicken salad for lunch. Hey Mike!! Do you have a Ace Hardware in your area? I got the pecan chunks there. By the way I served the ribs with some garden string beans sauteed with bacon and some nice slaw. Chris |

Chris, thanks for the tip, I'll check Ace. Well, olives are just starting to ripen here. I picked some today but couldn't get too many without a ladder. I'll refrigerate these and try to get some more this week. Hoping to make some Grabber style olives with these, mild and nutty. Will also pick some completely green ones while they are still available and some purple ones when they are ready. |

Traditional Middle Eastern Olives. Take 2 quarts of green olives and slit them down both sides with a sharp knife. Soak in water in a cool dark place for 3 days, changing the water every day.

I like doing simple things, one of my favorite dishes to make just for myself is some soup like chicken & dumplings chunky style by...umm not Cambells but the other Proggresso and than grilled cheese sandwhich, dip the sandwhich in the soup...uggghhh! That's the best. Or you can do make up burgers, with bacon, or my personal favorite, take a couple peices of ham and grill them slightly and put that on your burger, if you like mushrooms, saute some in soy souce and odd that too. YUM! Dang it...I'm really hungry now. OH! One more thing, that are finger lickin good! If you like bufffalo wings this recepie is the best! Buy some foster farms party wings, bake them on a baking sheet at 350 degrees for about 22 minutes. than put them in a big skillet with a couple spoon fulls of I can't believe it's not butter (I use this because it is a lot healthier than using real butter and less fattening) and than add a good squirt of Franks Red Hot Souce on each peice of chicken, put on a medium heat, cover with a lid, let them cook for about another 10-15 minutes in the pan stirring occasionally until they are a little brown and slightly crispy. Than dip in ranch dressing! The best! http://www.rolandelectronicdrums.org/ [ Edited by: JuliaKhanam 2010-08-23 07:36 ] |

Thanks for that insight Julie and welcome to TC After soaking the slit olives in water for 4 days with twice daily water changes, they are still pretty bitter and NASTY. Next, line jars with sliced lemons, fill with olives, add a bay leaf, fill with brine solution, top with olive oil, and place in a cool place (refrigerator?) for TWO MONTHS!!! |

Amy, it was a WILD good time. Couldn't tell you much about the food - the Italian sausage sandwich I ate from the grill was good but then again I'm not very picky about what I eat. As far as pictures, the only thing I took pictures of was people in their freakish outfits to show my wife who didn't attend. That being said, now I can't post any of my pics because those people will know I think they were wearing freakish outfits! :lol: Chris and Amy, maybe we'll see you next year. |

Quick rundown on Oasis 2010 We tried to go to Ricky's Restaurant,which is a good breakfast house,but they were closed for repairs this week. Friday night a group of us wanted Tacos,So I know of this great chain of Taco stands called Santana's that is about 5 minutes away from the We stuffed Stacey "Happy Chi" and friends Dave & AJ,Wicki Tiki Vicki & Mrs ATP into the car and hit the freeway for a couple of minutes to the local Santana's Mexican food, the food was super tasty,yet cheap, but later that night after a few (maybe more then a few) Mai Tai's it sat a bit heavy in the stomach. The room Parties were a little less elaborate this year (Damn economy!)Saturday nights Heaven & Hell parties were the big productions this year, but for my money Saturdays "Ding Dong Devils" room party wins "The best fun factor award" The Hell on Heals burlesque gal's were great! We brought out own supply of Krakan Mai Tai's everywhere we went and shared with everybody who wanted some, let me know what you thought I will get some pictures soon and post in the Oasis Thread. |
