So the end result was actually the shape of a hamburger. Dipped it in ketchup. It was more like substituting a tortilla for a bun than a burrito IMO. But yeah, I guess a burrito .

More accurately, the leftover buns we had were discovered to be growing mold. My wife asked if I wanted to go buy buns and I said no. She said "well I'm fine just eating it without a bun so I don't care, but I know you do". Necessity is the mother of invention .
Got it...I thought maybe you crumbled up the beef and the grilled it to keep closed part threw me. Laughing at all the trouble to cut the tortilla in the starburst shape. I hate shrooms but other than that it sounds like a good way to go when no buns.

Detroit pizza, with my favorite hometown chips, and a local beer.

Gorgeous, like corky implied. Sooo gorgeous.
I would like to try carryout Detroit pizza with traditional flavors. Last Thursday night I had great Detroit pizza with whack job flavors that people love. I love trying weird stuff and still prefer the traditions like pepperoni or sausage and Italian kind - I dont need kielbasa or hot links or chorizo or other sausages. Maybe Ill try making Detroit style pizza on Sunday.

Camellone in Canton, OH.

This is my first Detroit style pizza, so I have nothing to compare it to. I thought it was fantastic.

Growing up, the closest we got to Detroit was Cedar Point. Great memories of the Blue Streak, red pop, and French fries with malt vinegar.

I used to go there too but I was (and still am) too chicken to go on that wooden roller coaster.

Weve been hitting up spots in San Diego. Dinner was raw oyster, albacore tajin, beef tataki, yellowtail kama shioyaki (cheek), ankimo (monkfish liver), and tuna tar tar. Yeah, not much fish where we live so going for it here.

11lb prime brisket. Put it on at midnight 225, checked it at 7 and it was coming along nicely. Wrapped at 8:30, pulled at 10:30 (203 deg) and let it sleep for a couple of hours in a cooler.

Beautiful, nice smoke ring. Did it shrink much? mmmmm
Very good job. I assume that your smoker can maintain the same temp the whole time?

Thanks for the meat porn! Now I'm hungry, even though I ate lunch 3 hours ago!
