Scientifically Processed Animal Matter

I just finished up a Surf and Turf on the Cobb grill and still had a hot fire left so I did some "Scientifically Processed Animal Matter" to help use up the remaining charcoal in the grill. It came out wonderful as it usually does and made a fine lunch.

This was the first time I tried this meat on my Grill Grates and it came out quite well. 

Did you know??

This meat has been around for 80 years. 

In the US, it comes in about 20 flavors.

There are 12.8 cans of this meat served every second world wide.

If you were in the service before the "modern army", you damn sure would know what this meat tastes like. 

SPAM...you gotta love it!!!

My selection today was the Black Pepper Spam.

This is my Spam Slyder I had for lunch today...I added some lettuce, tomato, and some horsey sauce to my sandwich and oh my, it was great.

Now you folks have to quit making fun of this wonderful product.

Weber Kettle and some Sandwich Treats

Quite often, I get tired of all the high temp grilling and want something with a little more smoke flavor so I just lower the temps and stretch the cook out a little longer to get some additional flavor for my sandwiches. 

Used the Weber charcoal baskets and Stubb’s briquets with hickory chunks for smoke. Most of the cook was done on the backside of a pair of Grill Grates. 

My cook consisted of the following:

Four 1/3 pound 70/30 burger pattties

Five Johnsonville Hot Italian sausage

Six Vienna Brand Chicage type Jumbo Beef Franks 

Block of Jalapeno Spam

And some caramelized veggies

My Gen 2 performer doing it’s thing. Meat was cooked at about 250-275 degrees measured on the cooking surface and took a few minutes less than an hour not including the veggies. 

Caramelized veggies consisted of onions, red bell peppers, green bell peppers, and sliced jalapeno peppers.

Results of the cook.

Hot Italian sausage sandwich with some of the caramelized veggies, tomatoes, and mustard and a Jalapeno Spam Slider with caramelized veggies, lettuce, tomato, and mustard.

The cook came out great and sure made a nice lunch.

Bloomin' Block of Spam / Weber Kettle

This recipe is from the Wolfe Pit. 

After cutting the block of Spam so it would bloom, I sprinkled on a generous amount of SGH rub and then added a breading of corn starch to make it crispy. Placed it on the grill along with some breaded hot wings and got the temp dialed in at about 325 degrees and cooked it all up.

Hot wings came off first.

Made up a dipping sauce of some Sriracha and mayo and this stuff is great. 

I'll sure do this one again.
