Thanksgiving appetizers Black Eyed Joe’s Jalapeno Poppers and Smoked Bologna Sliders with Sweet Spicy Cole Slaw and Honey Horseradish Mustard on a Kings Hawaiian Roll

Two things..those jalapeno poopers look great..will you post the recipe? Also does the Hawaiian rolls work good for basic sliders?

 

[cosjobs]

Tonight: Ribs, Chicken, Pulled Pork, Mac & Cheese, Beans, Slaw, and the unveiling of "Mom's Potato Salad" which is a non mayo based / kinda German potsal like. Oh...and NOLA BLONDE ALE on tap

What's the base of the potato salad? I hate mayo!

apple cider vin, sugar, salt, celery seed, black pepper, red peppers, boiled eggs, bacon & onions cooked down....forgetting something i think but that is it basically on thin cut red pots.

awesome

No oil?

Hi DG,

Joe's Jalapeno Poppers

12 Jalapeno peppers

1 package cream cheese (8 oz)

¼ cup diced red onion

1 garlic clove diced

½ TBS turbinado sugar

½ TBS Sweet Spicy Love Rub

12 slices bacon

12 beef little smokie sausages

Slice peppers in half and remove seeds and ribs

Slice little smokies in half lengthwise

Let bacon warm up and slice each slice in half

Let cream cheese warm up to room temperature

Mix all ingredients in bowl

Fill pepper half with cheese mix and little smokie half

Wrap in bacon.

Cook for 1 hour at 250

And yes, the Kings Hawaiian rolls work great for all sliders. Only thing is that you have to slice them in half as they're a roll but that's ok too - probably keeps them more fresh.J

[tipsy mcstagger]

yes. potatoes. and zatarains creole mustard. and the oil in it is from the bacon grease i cook the onions & flour in

 

[tipsy mcstagger]

i won't cut the potatoes thin again..even though i like it, just too hard to keep from breaking up. qtrs are how i will do them from now on.

This is the same thing I get with my slaw. I don't hate mayo but I see LOTS of people that do. Plus it has the second big strike of going bad when you're outside for long periods of time in the heat. (My buddy says the default answer in med school for diagnosing the food poisoning is you always go with the mayo potato salad)Sugar and vinegar base make a great sweet / tangy flavor profile without the heaviness of the mayo. Seems like a no brainer yet I see tons of restaurants stick with mayo. J

Half to go, half in house so far tonight. very strange...didn't see the to go thing already being a thing.

I love this part of the day...im done cooking...just feeding and talking and watching the saints beat the colts in the supperbowl again without the express written consent of the nfl...nanner nanner boo boo

 

[Tiger Fan]

Sent my buddy over there from work who is originally from NC and said it was excellent. When I first told him about it, he said he's a pretty harsh BBQ critic...so that's some high praise from guy from a BBQ state.

 

[Gadabout]

Good, good meal I had out there earlier. The ribs were outstanding. So outstanding that I don't even know what those sauces tasted like. The mac and cheese was damn good too. As quick as the servers would bring out another bowl, it was already gone. That cornbread was unique. I didn't eat enough of it to be able to pinpoint what was different about it. The pulled pork had some really, really deep flavors to it. I can tell that a lot of time and effort goes into your bbq. Good stuff, man.

And I'm normally a big mac and cheese snob, but the stuff I had out there earlier holds its own against any other that I've had in a restaurant.

I'll be back next week.

 

[tipsy mcstagger]

3 of 8 butts left

3 or 16 chickens left

2 racks of 18 left

no pot sal, no mac n chee, but lots of beans & slaw (huge batches...people like them)

People are nutso on the ribs n chicken n mac & chee. This is good start.

Ready for my fire to go out & go to bed.

Oh..did it with 3 less staff tonight and it was smooth like butter, which is really good news on the biz model stuff/family style angle.

I really wish I was going to be able to try some of this while i was down there next weekend :(

Sounds like everything is going fantastic Tipsy...very very happy for ya.

What have you got going on next weekend? Anything too crazy? May shoot ya a text. Coming down for my buddy's law firm's christmas party (Hillbilly Casino will be playing and it's catered with maine lobster/dungeoness crab/raw/chargrilled oysters and there will be open bar ).

I know we're talking about going out for drinks saturday afternoon and then dinner somewhere of my buddy's choosing saturday night. Then brunch at Dantes at open on sunday. Would love to meet up for a bite/drink at some point depending on your schedule.

Nice work, GB.How is this working with the leftover food? I would think that's one of the bigger issues to work out. I know you can always find a home for it but from a business / not charity thing, do you have an idea on where you need to be? In other words, is 2 of 8 butts and 3 of 16 chickens left good or do you need be where you have zero "waste"?Also, wondering how you handle the ribs. I've found anytime I have ribs available next to chicken or pulled pork, people would MUCH rather eat ribs. And as you know, ribs are a terrible buy compared to pork shoulder or chickens. So in a family style setup, how do you handle the guy that wants 12 ribs and no pulled pork or chicken?J

when are u here again? this coming or next? if next...im jobless and can barbecue for yall at my house or something.

 

[tipsy mcstagger]

Its all about setting up & learning my pars. The rest is guess work on having too much or too little. at this point, i'm happy to donate my leftovers (mainly my staff tonight) but I did better than break even even with the waste...so considering where i am on the learning curve

Incredible feedback from folks tonight. Y'all better get on board with that fundraising thread if you want a part of this hot pork action.

Where do I send my contribution?

Great work. Really bummed I live do far away. Would love to try those ribs

 

[tipsy mcstagger]

JOE: before i forget.

I stumbled on a kitchen element that 1. pays homage to my pizza past, 2. is the best thing for getting pork butts & chickens, even ribs n brisket out in a much easier fashion than anything i've tried and would do well for your extra tall rig maneuvering .... Pizza paddle. Just saw it at the restaurant supply place and it was a moment of brilliance. I got a good sturdy one, since the cheap wood handled ones used to break often. Enjoy.

Since the other space probably has issues with their landlord and their lease not allowing subletters (sp?), it looks like I will just be doing lunches and the occasional Tuesday night @ Dante's. 3 am...here we come

At least you get weekends again!

 

[tipsy mcstagger]

This Tuesday will be my last one open until the new year. I have a ton of catching up on sleep to do. And more playing in the kitchen.

And...

Not working for a month for the first time as an adult (outside of that awesome vacation after Katrina)is what its really about. i want to be lazy.

 

[ragincajun]

Man I have to come to N.O. soon! Maybe I will get some Uptown Angler gift cards so I can have an excuse to come into town.

Even if you are only half exaggerating, you should check out a sleep study/cpap.I used to wake up that often to pee and a good buddy said that I wasn't getting up because I had to pee, I was waking up because I wasn't breathing and then once awake I would want to pee.I ended up getting a cpap and I have not had to get up and pee in the middle of the night more than 2 or 3 times in the last several years.Now that you will be inhaling a decent amount of work-related smoke- your night-time breathing is likely to get worse.

Last night was great....115 folks came to eat my food in the cold & drizzle. Reviews continue to be great, and the family style thing is definitely generating a buzz.

Smoked bologna sliders were a HUGE hit last night. Creole Honey Mustard, Slaw, Fat slices of really smoky bologna, grilled dinner rolls...

Break time!
