What are you cooking for the 4th???

cwall1313 · Posted: Jul 02 2007 Post subject: What are you cooking for the 4th???

It seems to me that there is a tradition on the Ring where everyone lists what they are cooking for major bbq'ing holidays. So, I'm going to keep it going for the 4th of July. I'll be smoking a brisket flat, beef ribs, two fatties, and picnic shoulder. That should hold me for a while. Ok, what's everybody else smoking?

Brisket, whole chicken, fatty. Then on the grill, roasted corn and assorted veggies.

Tri tip roasts, country style ribs, boudin, apple/gouda sausages, bacon wrapped chicken thighs and some all beef weiners for the kids who don't know any better.

2 Butts for a cookout on Wednesday. I'm off the rest of the week after Tues, so I'll probably smoke a brisket over the weekend too. And I can never resist putting a fattie or two on.

It's gonna be just me for the 4th (family went to the beach), so I'll do a slab of baby backs, some corn on the cob and garlic smashed potatoes.

Might have to whip up some homemade ice cream too.

A slab of St LOUIS style ribs, corn on the cob, and cole slaw. That is if it will quit raining in Texas.

One 4 lbs butt, 2 racks of baby backs, corn, pasta salad.

I'm wondering if I should do 3 racks. We're having 12 people (4 pre-teens) but I know the butt will go a long way. My wife always says "thats too much food!" Rolling Eyes

My first time smoke this past weekend was a big hit (butt, bbribs, wings) , so I am smoking another butt or two, some babyback ribs, and maybe a chicken on the 4th... I might do a fatty. If my beer gets close enough, I might smoke that as well, and then I will be eyeing that blacksnake that has been hanging around our retaining wall...

BigO, my wife and girls are leaving for the beach tomorrow... I will be just me for the rest of the week.

I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable 4th...

I am planning brisket and ribs. I would like to smoke corn on the cob, does anyone have any tips?
I will probably also do some fatty's for appetizers.

I'm thinking some baby backs and maybe some chicken legs. Definately some grilled corn on the cob. I'll save the butts for Friday.
