Thought of this thread when I went to Spec's for lunch. Ordered a chili dog for $3.50. Go to pick up my order and there are two. 

"Oh, did I order two?"
"No, but we're out of the normal dogs, so we are putting two in there now until we get the new shipment in."

It was delicious.

Yep.

  • Season and smoke as you would a brisket for about 3-4 hours
  • Then ddd to foil pan.  I add a rough cut onion and diced hatch chilis and a cup or so of beef broth and cover with foil
  • Smoke for another 3 hours +/- until it gets to around 200+
  • Pour out the broth/onin/pepper juices into another bowl to save
  • Chuck shreds like pulled pork, then put back over how ever much of the broth and peppers you want.

Served with those Hawaiin roles, diced pickles and onions, makes the best sandwiches.  I like it better than chopped brisket for sandwiches and it cooks in half the time for a fraction of the cost.  Every time I make it the kids and guests devour.

Since I usually cook for just two people I have stopped smoking brisket and just smoke prime chuck roasts and they turn out muy delicioso. Will definitely try this with the broth. Would make great Chicago beef sandwiches.

Wait a minute. Spec's serves food? 

Best kept secret. Cheap and tasty. I used to get the shrimp poboy and up until about a year ago it was $5.99 and would easily serve two. Now I think it's $10. It's not the best poboy but pretty good.

One day they have half-off desserts, which are normally $4. So you can get a couple of pieces of cheesecake for $4.

We will go have lunch or dinner and fill up for under $20.

Wife has these shitty gluten free tortillas I’m trying to get rid of. We had leftover venison ring bologna, bacon, and fried potatoes. I made a Parmesan, cheddar, and giardenara omelette and threw it along with the meat and potatoes onto said shitty tortilla and topped with kraut, salsa, and hot sauce

Well-done.

The innards look great but that tortilla looks as edible as that plate. Gluten is a critical part of the science of a tortilla.

I agree, but my wife has Celiac disease and I hate wasting food.

Bad marks for improper plating, I know. Fried Spam, Kraft cheese food slices, dill pickles on a sesame seed hamburger bun. That last pickle from the jar had a lot of skin but the crunch was satisfying.

A few ear to my eye. The old man loved a spam sandwich. Usually cold out of the can with lots of that cansnot on it, a hunk of velveeta, miracle whip. Can’t say I ever cared for it. But he loved it.

I'm thinking extra credit for using authentic Kraft sandwich spread. When you know, you know.

Never been a huge hot dog fan

And just like that, we found out that SA is a communist terrorist who hates America, puppies, and the smell of rain.
