What to put in the smoker this weekend?

What's "asparagus"?

It's used for making stinky pee.

It's used for making stinky pee.

Studies suggest that only about 25% of the population is able to smell the stink.
Unfortunately, I am one of those - wife is not. She also can't smell weed. Weird.

Wednesday - that day of the week we start the butts or briskets thawing, ponder brines or marinades and missing items to gather. Trip to the freezer reveals two lonely briskets - brisket it is! add meat market to the list Sadly the smallest is 15+ lbs, it will see the freezer again in it's life but be reincarnated as tacos, chili, who knows? Hmm that sausage has been in there a while, better cook that too.

NO asparagus! Tastes like chewing aluminum foil to me but some Brussels sprouts... mmm baby cabbages!

And for me, I can't stand brussel sprouts, or full size cabbage for that matter. Steamed asparagus however is something I do like. I did take the pork butt out of the freezer this morning, but I'll inject the morning of rather than brine.

Baked beans - prepare as usual and then throw them in the smoker for an hour.

Meh. If you want some real good baked beans Google 'Calico Beans' and try that on. I don't even like beans but those are AMAZING! Unless your 'que is on point they may even overshadow the main course.

I usually grill my asparagus after coating in salt pepper olive oil and a splash of soy sauce. I won't be doing it in the smoker again.

Not sure if I'm using the smoker this weekend or now. May have to make a trip to the butcher tomorrow...

How much you give for that packer @ Costco? We don't have one (yet) so I'm curious how their prices compare.
