Blue Moose Barbeque
BBQ lovers based back in the US sharing our love of barbeque with friends, whānau, and family.
Today, we were honored to feed our son’s unit as part of their Morale Day. 50 Marines and their families ate the heck out of brisket, chicken, Mac and cheese and Cole slaw. It’s an honor to feed those who defend our country and love it as much as we do!
Chicken and Mac n’cheese on.
0400 and briskets are on. Feeding a bunch of Marines today :-)
Blue Moose Barbeque is on the road again!
Finished product. Love these!
Coming along nicely!
Small rack of beef plate ribs getting ready to go on.
Went to Tank's Meats Inc. and grabbed a tomahawk, tri-tip and some other goodies. Look forward to smoking them up soon!
Love that clear blue smoke!
Brisket stuffed sweet potato. Great way to use leftover brisket.
Played around with some pork belly strips and made Pork Pinwheels for dinner.
Easy to do, just take your pork belly strips and roll into a pinwheel. Stick a skewer in it to hold it. Cover with your favorite rub and place in the smoker.
Smoke at 250°-300° degrees until internal temp is 140°. Brush on your favorite BBQ sauce. Take up to 170°.
Easy to eat and easy cleanup!
Pork butt and brisket on for a party at work tomorrow.
Made this a few years ago. It was so easy and so good! Made it on our Oklahoma Joe Rider grill.
