Vietnamese Beef Ribs
Submitted by Egger Ave
These beef ribs were a big hit in Salado this year. They cook fast and make great appetizers or a light main course.
The Ribs
This recipe uses crosscut or flanken beef ribs. The ribs are cut on a band saw across the ribs to reveal the rib cross section. Buy them sliced 1/4" thick The thin cut allows the marinade to completely penetrate the meat I have found the best ribs in Asian and Hispanic grocery stores. Asian markets are a great place to find the thick soy sauce, oyster sauce ( BTW Oyster Sauce does not contain any oysters) and fish sauce. I use Golden Boy brand fish sauce made in Thailand. The fish sauce does contain anchovies. The subtle anchovy flavor works great with grilled meat. You can also find pork ribs cut the same way.
Marinade
This marinade recipe will marinate about 3 lbs of bone in ribs.
2 tbs minced garlic
1.5 tbs sugar
2 tbs oyster sauce
1 tbs fish sauce
1 tbs sesame oil or 1tbs sesame oil with chili oil
1 ts thick soy sauce
Prepare marinade by combining garlic, sugar, oyster sauce, fish sauce, thick soy sauce and sesame oil. The sesame oil with chili oil will put some fire in the ribs. Put the ribs in 1 gallon zip lock bag(s) and pour enough marinade in the bag to completely cover the ribs. Refrigerate at least one hour, I do mine overnight.
The Cook
The ribs can go from the bag to a hot grill. Cook until you see a slight char on the meat and turn. The ribs only take about 5 minutes to cook.
Serving Suggestion:  Serve with Peanut Sauce, Chili Sauce and Cucumber Relish.

1
Tbs

1/2
tsp
ground ginger
sesame seeds
Marinade
1
Mix all of the ingredients together, reserve about 1/3 of this for the basting during the cook.
Finishing Sauce:
1
Mix the hoisin & honey together.
Plum Dipping Sauce with Sesame Seeds:
1
Combine all ingredients for the dipping sauce, EXCEPT sesame seeds, in a saucepan and bring to a boil stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool. Refrigerate in a covered container overnight to blend flavors. Prior to serving, toast sesame seeds and place in a separate bowl.
Cooking Method:
1
Make the dipping sauce one or two days before you plan on cooking. Make the marinade and marinate pork for at least 4 hours, or overnight (8 hours) if you wish. Make the finishing sauce while the cooker is coming up to temp, keep at room temperature. The finishing sauce can be warmed slightly or thinned with a little apple juice.
2
Preheat cooker to 375° with an indirect or raised direct set up. Roast the tenderloins until the internal temperature is around 150°, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade. Turn & rotate as needed. When close to done, baste with the finishing sauce, remove and rest for a few minutes. You can add more finishing sauce to even out the coating. Either ramp up the cooker and briefly move the tenderloins directly over the coals or move into an oven set on broil in order to glaze the meat. Be careful not to burn the glaze.
3
Let pork cool and cut into thin slices. Serve the plum sauce and toasted sesame seeds alongside the sliced pork. Dip the sliced pork into the plum dipping sauce, then into the sesame seeds. Then enjoy.
Servings: 15  Yield: 30

Spicy Ginger Teriyaki Wings
Submitted by Cazzy

Ingredients needed

Chicken wings (whole or cut to flappers and drumettes)
1 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup Mirin Rice Wine
1 tbsp fresh ginger root (peeled and grated)
1 tsp chili flakes
*I use this as a base and multiply quantities based on need.

Making Spicy Ginger Teriyaki Sauce

In a sauce pan...bring soy, brown sugar and mirin rice wine to a boil and leave on heat till brown sugar has dissolved.  Stir regularly and throughout after boil to avoid scorching. Low heat and add ginger and chili flakes.  Simmer for 10 min while stirring regularly.  Remove from heat and refrigerate.


Marination
Marinate wings for 24 hours in chilled marinade prior to cook (the chili flakes will rise to the top so shake it up). I use a gallon bag to marinate because I like to lay bag flat and flip after 12 hours.

Cook

Fire up egg and stabilize at 375-400.  I use a adjustable rig with a 16" drip pan and cook above the felt line.  Place drumettes on outside and flappers in the middle because it will be hotter on the outside due to the drip pan.  
This is the anal part but I find it really makes the wings tacky and layers the flavor.  At 5 min, I baste with marinade, then again at 10 min.  At 15, I flip and baste and then baste again at 20 min.  This process is why I use a drip pan cause the marinade will make your lump smoke a undesirable taste into the wings.  Your wings will be at about 145-150 and should really start having a beautiful brownish red color.  Remove at 165...I check each one then remove.  Some may go over a lil but no worry...as you know, our eggs are very forgiving.

Using different soy sauces will change the flavor a tad and you can reduce/increase ginger and chili flakes based on preference.  Feel free to ask me any questions.

Skillet Tamale Pie
Submitted by Big John
Here is my recipe for Skillet Tamale Pie that I copied from somewhere else and changed it somewhat to use on the Egg. 
Johnny

On the Egg I used a large 10 – 12 inch CI skillet to brown the meat and the rest of the mixture by placing it directly on the grate at about 375  degrees dome.

1 pound lean ground beef
½ cup onion chopped
Cook meat and onion together until done

Add the following to meat mixture and take off the grate
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 can 2.5 oz sliced black olives drained and divided (only use ½  of the can)
1 can 4 oz chopped green chilies
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
1 can 15 oz pinto beans undrained
½ jar chunky salsa

Remove skillet from the Egg, add the pizza stone on top of the grate along with some spacers (I used the green feet from the Egg) and adjust the temperature to 400- 425 degrees.

Do this while meat is cooking
Prepare topping or use an cornbread mix using its’ directions

Topping
½ cup Bisquick
½ cup self-rising corn bread mix
½ cup milk (I added a little more milk to make the topping spread a little easier)
1/3 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 egg
1 cup grated cheddar cheese divided in half

Add ½ of the cheese to the topping mixture then pour topping over meat mixture.  Spread remaining cheese over the top then scatter the remaining olives over the cheese.

Place in oven or on spacers in the Egg at 400-425 degrees for about 25 to 30 minutes or until topping is golden brown.  I served with some additional salsa or you use some sour cream.

Salado Elote Con Crema
(Mexican Grilled Corn)
Cooked in Salado by:
Kelley (“EggObsessed”) and Bruce (“No Joke Smoke”) Underwood


Corn:
6 Cobs of Yellow Corn on the Cob, shucked
Canola Oil
Salt

1 medium bunch of cilantro, finely chopped
1 bunch of green onions, sliced very thin (green and white parts)
1 cup Cotija cheese, grated on large holes of cheese grater

Sauce:
¾  c. Mexican Crema (I use Cacique brand)
¾  c. Mayonnaise
Zest and Juice of one lime
½  tsp. Ground Cumin
¼  tsp. Cayenne Powder
½  tsp. Chili Powder
Garlic Salt and Black Pepper to taste

Rub cobs of corn with canola oil and sprinkle with salt.  Roast your corn on a direct BGE at gasket level at about 375 degrees.  When corn is charred the way you want it, thoroughly seal in foil in which you  have added about ½ cup of water or ice cubes, so it can steam and soften a little more.  Cook this way for about 20-30 minutes.  Open foil and let cool enough to handle.  Get a very large mixing bowl and put an inverted very small mixing bowl inside it.  Place your cob, one at a time, on the small bowl and the kernels will fall nicely into the big bowl instead of going everywhere, like they do when you cut them on a cutting board.

Mix up the sauce ingredients in a bowl.  You can adjust the ingredient amounts to your liking.

Toss the cilantro, green onion and cotija cheese with the corn until well mixed.  Add the sauce until it is the consistency that you prefer.  I don't sauce real heavily, but want a little sauce on each kernel of corn.

This can be eaten at room temperature or cold.  It doesn't stay hot very long.  Enjoy!!

Serves 4-6 people.

Peruvian Ceviche
Submitted by Lake Conroe Egger












Prep Time:  | Cook Time:  | Servings:  | Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients:
1 pound fresh fish fillet  , (such as red snapper, cod, halibut, flounder, bass, grouper, salmon, or bay scallops)* 
1 pound small bay shrimp , deveined, peeled, and cooked 
1 lemon , juiced 
4 to 5  limes , juiced 
3 Tbsp green onions , minced 
2 to 3  fresh tomatoes , minced 
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves , minced (or to taste) 
Celery , minced (use the tender inner stalks only) 
Black olives 
1 cup prepared good-quality tomato salsa (mild to medium) 
Freshly ground black pepper to taste 
Celery salt to taste 
1 large can tomato juice 
Cilantro sprigs 
Tortilla chips 
Directions:
* Use ONLY fresh top-quality fish and seafood (buy sushi-grade whenever possible). Texture is imperative to the dish and only fresh, not previously frozen, seafood should be used. Lay fish out and run hands over top, pressing slightly to look for any remaining bones. Cut fish in 3/4-inch strips and then cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Using a gallon jug, add fish and shrimp; add lemon and lime juice to jug (juice should just cover seafood in jug). Cover with lid and shake. Refrigerate overnight or a minimum of 12 hours, shaking occasionally. After seafood mixture has marinated, add green onions, tomatoes, cilantro, celery, olive, salsa, pepper, celery salt, and tomato juice to jug. NOTE: Depending on how much ingredients are used, may not need all the tomato juice. Shake and then refrigerate until ready to serve.  
   
To serve place mixture (with juice) in individual serving bowls (martini glasses, sundae glasses) and garnish with cilantro sprigs and tortilla chips. NOTE: Ceviche does not keep well. It becomes rubbery and can be described as overcooked when it sits for over 24 hours. Make a batch only as big as you can eat in one meal.
