I was in Manhattan today for a workshop and ate at RUB on W. 23rd
Street. I had the pulled pork sandwich. Absolutely awesome! Meaty,
tender, juicy, charred, smokey (sauces on the side). Go there. Skip
the greens.

End of review.

Sorry, that acronym is long ago taken, being rich urban biker.

I've never eaten there (it's a dream!), but I do know first hand that Paul
Kirk is an excellent Pitmaster.
I attended a cooking class that he gave a couple of years ago.

I smoked 2 smallish pork butt steaks for supper last night...eaten with a
side of spaghetti squash with parm cheese and green chiles mixed in. I
smothered the steaks in Apple Butter BBQ sauce just minutes before
removing them from the smoker. The rub was a low to medium suide on the
heat scale with the Aleppo and Chipotle powder in it.

I can die Happy now.

This upcoming weekend is payday and thusly I can afford to move up into
the smoked shrimp world. I'm thinking hickory smoke. And a orange zest
based rub. I got a sink supported colander from lee valley ...by cutting
off the rubber bumpers off the extending arms that hold it above a sink I
have created a beautiful shrimp smoking basket. That can still be used
over the sink when not in use as a smoking tool.

Wow! I just looked at their menu. It sounds tasty.

Dinosaur is the biker BBQ place. I made the effort to go to the
Harlem branch once but they were closed that day (a Monday). It's
kind of awkward to get to but, still, closer than the Syracuse store.
