Another roadtrip food post. Who has tried a Runza? Going thru Nebraska yesterday and tucked into this delicious ground meat, cabbage and cheese sandwich. The bun is baked perfectly. Similar to the ground steak from my home town’s (Mt. Airy, NC) Dairy Center.
Winner!!!!

We are on a roadtrip to visit @faineg.bsky.social. Found a gem of a restaurant called River & Woods in Boulder, CO.
Can highly recommend! Book at the bar. We had Duck Wings, Trout, Chicken and mousse. Wines were excellent. Maddie and Rob took great care of us and shared great wine info!

Ok, back in the states with access to a good grill. First attempt in this location at a reverse sear 1.75” Porterhouse. Not bad results.

Found the largest lobster in Kingston, South Australia . Could not find a grill or pot big enough to cook it, so I threw it back!

Posting a food distraction from New Zealand. The venison on the South Island is sublime. Check out this Venison with raisin & apple chutney and potatoes roasted In duck fat that we enjoyed at the Zephyr Restaurant in Kaikoura, NZ. Happy Smokedaddy!

To prove I'm not just a carnivore, here is evidence of enjoying some very fresh seafood in Hoi An, Vietnam. Lobster, crab and shrimp! Oh, and there were greens.

BBQ Hanoi Style!
Tried “The Fat Pig” in the Westlake area of Hanoi. Can recommend. Their Combo platter of pulled pork, pork belly, pork rib and sausage was perfectly smoked with a slightly sweet sauce. The side of pork rinds were straight out of the pan and so good. Càm òn!

Of course when you walk through Shinjuko Chuo Park in Tokyo on a cold day, you are going to get to meet someone that’s taking their Western Barn Owl companion out for some sun. It is the way….

So I bought my “from me - to me” Christmas present today in Tokyo.
A set of Japanese carbon steel cooking knives. Paring, Santorum all purpose (stainless) and a Sujihiki for slicing.

More food posts from Japan since I’m away from my own grill and smoker. @ndgree.bsky.social found this gem in Tokyo called Les Six.
We enjoyed Roast Sangenton Pork, Grilled Kyushu Venison, and Mackrell Sashimi with persimmon starter dish.
So good!
@faineg.bsky.social put this on your list!

Presented for your consideration

BBQ Okinawa style.
A beautiful smoked spare rib with pulled pork over rice.
Think KC + Hawaii + Okinawa using a Weber kettle.
I love this!

PS. Nancy had the chicken and it was also on point.

Only in Japan can you find a “self timeout” after going thru airport security. Gotta love the little hints.
