Nom nom nom - Food Thread

I still have not been brave enough to attempt this.
I used the “charcoal snake” method, which worked really well and seems hard to mess up as long as you can use your vents and a reliable thermometer to control the temp. I did have to fuss with the vents constantly to keep the temperature in the zone I wanted, but that was fine because it’s not like I had any plans other than sitting in my backyard all day.

I've had success with sous vide and a hard smoke at around 300F. I'm too cowardly to try slow and low in just the kettle grill, but I've been eyeing a slow n sear for a while now.
 
There is some thawed frozen shrimp left in my fridge. I didn't buy them. They were left by a guest that get too excited and buys a lot of food (see cevieche post). Anybody got any ideas about what to do with them.

Maybe shrimp salad sandwich? Dress w mayo, mustard, capers, dill... basically anything you’d out into egg salad.

I make this over spinach, skip the pearl onions (you can add some diced onion if you want but I usually don’t because my wife strongly dislikes raw onions). I also sub in goat cheese for the mache and skip the truffle oil.

Where do you get your noodles / what kind?

For Ramen noodles, usually I can't find those locally. Most recipes have a note to buy Top Ramen, use the noodles, discard the spice package.

I usually just use a pack of flat ribbon noodles ( not sure if they are called that in US?
 
I’ve got a sous vide pork shoulder finishing in the oven, a big batch of macaroni salad in the fridge, and I’m hanging around on the deck, enjoying the weather, waiting to fire up the grill for some asparagus and corn.
