The wife asked a dumb question the other day. She wants to start a diet routine that needs a good amount of meat each day and asked if I’d be annoyed at smoking a bunch of meat each week for meal prepping. Tomorrow is her first day, so we bought a bunch of stuff to try, it’s way more food than we need for the week most likely, considering I also cooked about 2lbs of chicken breast!
Cooked the chicken and turkey at 180 for an hour and then 400 for about 1.5 hours, chicken breast and turkey breast around 165 internal. The thigh took a little longer to get to the right temp. They all ended up great, I was struggling to stop sampling them! I put some oil on each and then used garlic salt, some additional rock salt, and pepper for the chicken. For the turkey I used the rock salt and some Traeger prime rib rub.
First picture of the filet is after the smoke. For the filet I just did a little oil, the rock salt and pepper, then smoked at 180 for 1 hour, then brought it in and threw it on my cast iron griddle pan for about 2.5 minutes each side. Slapped a garlic salt/butter mixture on top and enjoyed. The wife doesn’t like the smoke flavor on her steaks, so I just cooked her’s boringly on the cast iron and the oven. It all came out great, not bad for a Sunday.
What did/are y’all cooking today?
