Uncle Bubba’s Shredded Beef. One of the things I like about camp is camp cooking. Uncle Bubba claims “Camp Cooking” as his, and who am I to argue with him. He can put a spin to his Dutch oven. He told us we were going “South of the Border” on this trip.

This week he brought about 7 pounds of some really tough beef, it wasn’t supposed to be when we bought it, that he had cut into cubes. Did some magic with his seasoning and about a 6-hour slow smoke until he had a mountain of “Fork Tender Spicy Shredded Beef”. We ate burritos in one style or another along with tacos and nachos with grilled jalapenos all week! He even made some “Zippy Taco Burgers”!!!

Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green Mountain Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme.  Wood Pellet Patio Heater, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or strawberry margaritas using frozen strawberries for ice, good food, music and sometimes a dance or two…

Cooking Directions: Uncle Bubba’s Shredded Beef 

Spray your Dutch oven with the “Duck Fat” (our store) and lay down a layer of the cubed meat. Season with the Fajita seasoning and do another layer of the meat and season. Do this until all the meat is seasoned and in the Dutch oven.

Slice the jalapenos and toss them in. Let me say this about the jalapenos. I don’t think of them as a “Hot” pepper, but these were ringers!!! They were so hot that they brought tears to my eyes, LOL…

Add the green chilies, chipotle chili powder, garlic, and onion, then top it off with the Goya Mojo Criollo. It will all cook down and blend nicely.

Place it on the grill at 250* (122c) uncovered for about 2 hours to pick up that “Kiss of Smoke”. Most things won’t pick up any more smoke flavor after 2 hours. So, bring the heat up to 350* (177c) for about hours until the meat is “Fork Tender”.

When the beef is cool enough to work with shred with 2 forks. Then, it’s time to eat!

I use a Maverick ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temps.

Note: I get a lot of questions about the kind of pellets you can use with a recipe. Keep in mind that a recipe is just an outline. Some you need to follow closely like when you are making bread, but most you can do anything you can dream, our favorite way to cook. Feel free to mix and match the pellets until you find a combination you really like. Also, you are only smoking at temps less than 250* (122c), anything higher is cooking and there will not be much if any smoke so it does not matter what kind of pellet you are using.

About our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Green Mountain, Uuni Wood Fired Pizza Oven, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood, and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What You Love,
Ken & Patti
