Pork chops are always a safe dinner at our house. They are easy to cook and everyone in the family loves them. I had a pork rub I made up awhile back that I used on these and they turned out awesome on the @traegergrills. Can't go wrong with 🐖 paired up with @fivemonkeysbbqsauce. ___________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🐖 ___________ #traegergrills #traegernation #foodporn #instafood #yum #stuffed #babybacks  #food #delicious #eat #yummy #certifiedgrilllover #meat #meatlovers #bbqporn #tastesbetter #traegerbbq #bigboytoys #forkyeah #barbeque #foodie #pork #grilling #amazingfood #onenationunderbbq #guiltbyassociation #beerbbqandbeards (at Ripon, California)

I finally got my pastrami Tri-Tip recipe and method up on my website. This will be a regular cook over at my house for sure! I'd love to hear what cook you love to do and that you don't ever get tired of. ___________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 ___________ #pastrami #tritip #beef #tragergrills #huge #epic  #bbq #barbecue #tasty  #smoke #forthewin #pelletpassion #meat  #beard #mealprep #howto #foodnetwork #foodenvy  #instaeats #amazingfood #deliciousfood #cookinggram #feedfeed #howto #dinnerideas #traegerday #OneNationUnderBBQ #beerbbqandbeards (at Ripon, California)

I got my feet wet in the spatchcock chicken arena finally.... and it passed all of my expectations. I've never cooked a chicken so well and juicy. Nothing was dry at all. I butterflied it and then rubbed @cagoldoliveoil evoo on it and then added the @traegergrills poultry rub to both sides. I smoked it until internal hit 145 and then took it off. I turned my Pro 34 onto high and then once it got hot I added the chicken again to crisp up the skin until internal hit about 163. Such a good way to cook a chicken. Next I'll try it on a turkey. What is your favorite way to cook chicken? ___________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 ___________ #traegergrills #traegernation #foodporn #instafood #yum #stuffed #spatchcock  #food #delicious #eat #yummy #certifiedgrilllover #meat #meatlovers #chicken #tastesbetter #traegerbbq #bigboytoys #forkyeah #barbeque #foodie #pork #grilling #amazingfood #onenationunderbbq #beerbbqandbeards (at Ripon, California)

I wrapped these 6oz @crowdcow top sirloin steaks with bacon. You can't go wrong with bacon right? It's a great combo. The rub I used is my personal beef rub. They turned out great as usual when cooked on my @traegergrills (I've never had something from Crowd Cow that I didn't like. They source the absolute best #craftbeef out there!)

For whatever reason, I always forget about these beef ribs. I usually think of pork ribs or the beef plate ribs. But I cooked these rib from @austinmeatservice and they were awesome! I just added my own beet rub to them as a test and they passed the beef ribs test too!

@vibekayaks is giving each customer free shipping right now for these awesome ice chests. Please note that I'm not paid for this. I just love mine a lot. Join the rotomolded ice chest club today and save yourself some money while doing it. This 75qt is like half the price of most others. Personally I'd put that savings into meat or camping....or both. Lol. Vibe rocks! I love mine and I know you will too! I wouldn't share this if I didn't truly believe that! You can find more info on their website or mine.

If you are wondering where to get some amazing beef for your next cook I'd highly recommend @straussmeats. These cowboy Ribeyes turned out AMAZING. They have a great product and I'll be back for more for sure. I cooked these on the @traegergrills and pan seared them in butter and fresh rosemary. I couldn't believe the flavor.

Oh boy. Talk about nailing a cook! This pastrami Tri-Tip was cured for 11 days and rubbed with a pastrami rub. I sliced it using my electric slicer and then made this masterpiece. I violated my own pastrami rule by adding BBQ sauce to a pastrami sandwich but I did it on my 8 year old son's advice. He said that I "needed" @fivemonkeysbbqsauce on it and he was right. It turned out so good! #TraegerDay win! ___________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 __________ @traegergrills @whiskeybentbbq @traegerbbq #tritip #pastrami #sandwich #traegergrills #traegerbbq #traegernation #beer #bbq #meat #fivemonkeysbbqsauce #onenationunderbbq #beerbbqandbeards (at Ripon, California)

Next up for #TraegerDay is my pastrami Tri-Tip. This was my first pastrami anything and I am very pleased with the outcome. Can't go wrong with Tri-Tip either. This is ready for the slicer and a sandwich. ____________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 ____________ #steak  #tritip  #steakdinner  #meat  #meatlover  #beef #carnivore  #grilling  #bbq  #bbqfamily  #barbeque #bbqtime  #foodvideo  #traeger  #traegergrills #eeeeeats  #nomnom  #forthewin #foodielife  #deliciousfood #homecookedmeal #OneNationUnderBBQ #beerbbqandbeards (at Ripon, California)

First up on #TraegerDay are these ranch chicken breasts from @austinmeatservice in Ripon, CA. I seasoned these with @traegergrills pork & poultry rub. Tossed them all in a bag and dumped a cup of ranch dressing in and put them in the refrigerator overnight. Can't beat this flavor! __________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 __________ #chicken #traeger #bbq #pellet #foodie #food #eats #foodphotography #grilledchicken #foodography #foodpictures  #foodpic #homechef #tasty  #dinnertonight #homecookin #cookinggram #OneNationUnderBBQ #beerbbqandbeards (at Ripon, California)

Happy #traegerday everyone! I have pastrami Tri-Tip and some ranch chicken going. Probably some sausage later today.

I'll be 100% honest here. I've had these Korean style short ribs from @crowdcow for quite awhile in my freezer. I didn't know what to do with them and Korean isn't something I generally cook. BUT....they turned out so AMAZING cooking them on the @traegergrills that I can't even put it into words. My entire family all approved (I have a 3 year old) too. I will definitely be posting this recipe on my website. The marinade was 💣, the riced cauliflower was a great healthy alternative to rice, and the sauteed bell peppers were just right!

Well, it is time to sell my camp stove because I just don't need it. My @traegergrills tailgater does everything I need! We were able to cook up some bacon along with some scrambled eggs and sausage. It turned out better than it looks! _____________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 _____________ #traegerbbq #traegeroutdoors #traegercamping #outdoorbbq #outdoorlife #livingoutside #traegernation #bbq #breakfast #campfood #food #instafood #camplife #camping #foodie #traegergrills #onenationunderbbq #beerbbqandbeards (at South Trout Pond, Lake Camanche)

If you are ready to get yourself a great beer cooler (I suppose it'll keep other drinks cold too), give @vibekayaks a look. I tested this 75qt cooler and I still had ice after 7 days. The price is right as well. This cooler is under $200!

The poles are out, cold beer in my hand, and ready to roll some smoke on the @traegergrills tailgater pretty soon!

Last night was my son's first baseball game and I didn't have any time to traeger. So my lovely wife pulled out some @kingsfordbbqmeats boneless pork steak cuts with Korean style BBQ sauce. She also made up some quick riced cauliflower for an awesome meal! It had some nice kick to it and the flavor was great! __________ Follow @beerbbqandbeards 🔥 __________ #quickeats #pork #kingsfordbbq #pig #kingsfordmeats #food #feedfeed #buzzfeast #foodblogger #forthewin #eeeeeats #protein #veggies #mealprep (at Ripon, California)
