Favorite BBQ recipes?

[Poindexter]

I cook all the meat I can outdoors just because the kitchen is easier to clean up. And it tastes better, and my wife encourages my playing with fire, tons of reasons really.

Anyway, I am constantly looking for new recipes to try, and figured I would share a couple of my faves.

Bacon wrapped sriracha onion rings. As with all things BBQ the recipe is kind of a general idea, unlike baking where deviating from the written word is asking for disaster.

This short you tube is pretty close to what I do, but:

I go for the red on the outside onions that are purple on the inside when I cut them open.

Usually one big red/purple onion will yield four onion rings that are a couple or three layers thick each and about half an inch tall. Just slice on the equator and then take a half inch slice off each half.

For me I can wrap those for rings using all the bacon slices in a 12 ounce package and come out about even.

Use all the sriracha you want, I probably use 1/4, maybe 1/3 cup with one big onion and 12 ounces of bacon.

When I do it I put all the ingredients onto a cookie sheet, including two bamboo skewers about 10" long, I finish with two bacon wrapped onion rings on each of two bamboo skewers, and all the mess on the cookie sheet.

I tend to smoke these on an upper rack while I have a meat loaf going on the lower rack in a smoker so the the bacon drippings fall on the meatloaf. Usually the bacon is crispy and the onion still crunchy right about the time the meatloaf is done, 60 - 90 minutes at 325-350 dF.
