Hawg Heaven's Christmas Eve BBQ Order 2010

[HawgHeaven]

All of a sudden, I got a flurry of orders for Christmas Eve... WOOHOO!! Got 6 racks of BBs, 3 briskies, and 2 pork Butts to do. Looks like I'll be cooking all day tomorrow.

Once the brisket is done, rested, and sliced, it's off to the vacu-suck machine. The butts will get pulled into PP, then they too will get sucked and frozen. The beauty of the bagging and freezing... the customer just has to drop the bags in boiling water to reheat.

I've had great success in vacu-sucking the rack of ribs whole and freezing them. Thaw them out, remove from the bag, and place in a pan with a little apple juice, then seal the pan with foil and reheat in the oven at 350 for approximately 20 to 30 minutes...

There will be pix of this as it unravels, so stay tuned...

Hey Phillip, You apparently don't cut individual bones of them ribs before Vac SUCK. Holy Cow that is alot of plastic though ain't it? Congrats on the orders.

Awesome buddy! That rocks you got some great orders. I'm just starting to do the freezing then dropping in simmering water method. I'm digging it too. Especially for individual steaks or chicken hooties. Looking forward to some Q-view!

Nope, I don't cut them up, except if the customers want it that way. They all seem to enjoy the full racks better. As far as bag useage, I use the 8" bags for them... and yeah, I go thru a bit of them, butt not too bad.

Squirrel, I LOVE dropping my meat in a hot tub of water... wait... well... you know what I mean...

Having just spent $80-odd dollars on "plastic" (And good deal at that...) I gotta start realizing it's a buck a foot retail.
