So Near and yet So Far...(I could almost SMELL the que from 20,000 feet)
Hey all,
Been busier than I-don't-know-what lately and haven't posted much, but am definitely overdue... First off, a belated Happy Anniversary to Dave's Pit-Smoked Bar-B-Que...here's wishing you many more. My work sent me on a last-minute trip to New York last week and I tried to get to some of the BBQ joints in town, but only made it to the same place I visited last time, Bubby's in Brooklyn. It's not really a BBQ place, although it serves what they say is real smoked BBQ brisket and Pulled Pork sandwiches. Last time I had the pork, this time I had the brisket. While it was tender, it was definitely missing something. Little or no noticible smoke flavor and all in all rather bland. The bartender, Max, however was great and joined me in trying a new beer they were selling....HE'BREW "The Chosen Beer" Genesis Ale (see http://www.shmaltz.com/ ) After a big long laugh over the label, I decided I needed to try it and as Max hadn't tried it yet I offered him some (the beer ended up being on the house - Thanks Max) anyway, pretty good stuff. I hadn't realized until late in the week that Dinosaur Barbecue from upstate NY had opened up a New York sattelite restaurant and it was only a few blocks from my Uncle's Apt. where I was staying. By the time I found out it was 8:30 on Friday Night and when we called the wait was at least 2 hours and we decided to pass. Oh well, next time. On the return flight last night as we neared Seattle the pilot noted that out the left side of the plane we could see Wenatchee....I looked down and sure enough, the lights of beautiful Wenatchee were laid out below us like a little neon sign pointing the way to Dave's. I immediately wished I had been able to take a weekend trip up for "anniversary weekend" and surprise Dave & Jill, but both finances and car trouble made that impossible....but I'm hoping before the snows set in that we'll be able to make a trip up. Anyway, that's my update...haven't smoked anything in about 3 weeks and I'm getting anxious...maybe I'll stop by the store and get some fixings on the way home tonight and make some smoked sausage... -Chef Juke "EVERYbody Eats When They Come To MY House!" |

CJ Good to hear from you again, sounds like a good time in New York. I guess that if I had some time there, I'd be hot on the trail of some fine pastrami too! Gads I love a good P on rye, an a P rueben! I have 5 packer cuts in the freezer now, and I'm looking forward to my next and second attempt with homemade P. -- Regards, Mike (Piedmont) http://groups.msn.com/ThePracticalBa...ewwelcome.msnw |

I have 5 >packer cuts in the freezer now, and I'm looking forward to my next and >second attempt with homemade P. Heh, I didn't mention that the first thing I did when I got into town was meet up with my employee who had come a day earlier and take him over to the Carnegie Deli for one of their monsterous Hot Pastrami Sandwhiches. a full pound of pastrami on rye, washed down with a Dr. Brown's cream soda and followed by a shared slice of real N.Y. Cheesecake. We barely waddled out of there under our own power. For those who care about the rest of our NON-BBQ culinary adventures, we also had some great Italian food at Va Tutto: http://www.vatutto.com/vatutto/html/index.htm# .. We quaffed some ales at the oldedst bar in town, McSorleys's (great place, although the clientele has gotten a little yuppified...): http://www.worldsbestbars.com/city/n...e-new-york.htm This, by the way, is in the east village right down the street from where my Dad's coffeehouse, Les Deux Megots used to be back in the early 60's....it's where he and my Mom met. We also had Sushi lunch at a place called Tribeca Hana and a forgettable lunch at a place who's name I forget... Finally, I also did some shopping at an upscale store called citarella and made dinner for my Aunt & Uncle one of my cousins: Salmon baked with a topping of double-creme Brie served with Garlicky Snow Peas and fried slieces of Polenta w/Porcinni Mushrooms. Oh, and for Brunch yesterday with a friend before my flight out, we ate at a place on 15th called La Metariie where I had a wonderful savory lamb sausage crepe. I gotta go digest now.... -Chef Juke "EVERYbody Eats When They Come To MY House!" www.chefjuke.com |

I had heard some good things about some of the newer BBQ places in NY, (and especially about the upstate Dinosaur BBQ) and wanted to try it. Being up here in the Pacific Northwest and having had some good 'Cue here even though the region is not known for BBQ has taught me not to be "Regionist" in my pursuit of good BBQ. So there. ;-) -Chef Juke "EVERYbody Eats When They Come To MY House!" |
