barbecuing mushies

[reverend trips]

I couldn't resist throwing a big fresh mushroom on the q yesturday when i was cooking ribs.
I thought that it would make it not taste quite as bad if i basted it with my own spicy rib sauce.
I cooked this thing till the sauce was caramelized on, it split open a bit and i could see the juices inside boiling, it was real hot, and the cap was almost burt.
To my complete surpise, not only did this make it not taste bad but it really was delicious, the cap was crunchy and the fat part of the stem was like eating barbecued asparagus, and cooking it, completely took that awfull taste out of it.
My freind and i each ate half right before eating the ribs and i had to give up on the ribs because i was starting to trip really fast, i mean as soon as i ate the mushroom i could feel my gums go weird right after eating it and within minutes i was fucked. I would have thought that cooking it like this would have ruined the actives in it but not at all, and i think maybe the spice helped bring it on fast, not sure, but i will do it again.
Anyone with a big fresh one should try this out, and thank me later, cause you are in for a treat.
oh, and maybe one should not eat this with ribs and beers because i had some mean gas for a good while after the meal.

I have heard heat breaks the "magic" down as well, but I too do lots of cooking with them and find they are still quite effective.

Great report! n damn, nice spread on that grill mmmmmmmm

[maynardsdick]

rev, i like your style

Thanks for the report. I've also been saying it's ok to boil them into tea instead of just simmering, but now we know you can get them much hotter even than that. That's especially cool that they tasted good.

Hmmmm I might have to go gormet with my next fruits, I can make a mean stir-fry.

Cool pics, Trips. Care to share your spicy sauce recipe?

[jjoj]

perhaps it's not the heat, but the length it's exposed to heat that breaks down more psilocybin? don't know how that'd make sense though...

[vrooota]

cool, I loved grilled ports, so grilled cubies are just double the fun

delicious looking I bet the spices in the sauce raised your metabalism some and helped speed it through your system? Good cookin' anyway!

Very cool. I'm glad someone said "fu** it" and tried cooking them! Thanks for going against the grain.

[jjoj]

I think this calls for a cubensis recipe thread...

[I_am_me]

Shew, just the thought of any flavor cooked cubie makes my tummy curl. lol

Nice you enjoyed it though.

Nice job, thanks for sharing. Makes me want to try a cream of mushroom soup. Here is a suggested recipe:

Grind one onion and about 12 oz of field mushrooms in a food processor
Add cubies according to taste and dosage requirements
Saute mixture on medium heat in about 2 oz butter until it begins to brown (10 min or so)
Add about one cup of white wine
Add 10 oz heavy cream
Add about 2 cups of chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
Simmer until taste and consistency are about right.

Hey Rev! You say the fungus was fresh and not dried?

[shedthemonkey]

Sure looks like a fresh mushroom to me in the first two pix.

It amazes me that folks think cubes taste so horrible. Fresh one’s are not so bad, but once they have been dehydrated they get a real nasty flavor. Heat/Oxygen decomp is relative to time of exposure, basic organic chem.

I am me, i assure you that there is absolutely no cubie taste at all when you are done your shroombecue, I thought that because it tasted so good that it was ruined, but I'm telling you, this is not the case.

That is a big ole freshie that would of gagged me if I just ate it.

Cooking with fungus is fun! (pun intended), and then after eating the little vacation is just as good shortly thereafter

it is okay to boil them for a short while for tea........thats the only weay i ever use......

[python]

psilocybin is destroyed at certain heat temps......i believe it starts at like 190F(a guess i dont feel like lookig it up)

boiling water temp is higher than 190 but a short boil has shown little effect

and nice idea on the barbeque.........looks tasty.......

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[apprentice]

my mouth watered just looking at those pics

Does anyone know if you can rehydrate a dried mushie?
I'm thinking about maybe throwing one in a marinade and seeing if it will take in the moisture so it can be grilled.
After pondering for a bit on what brought the trip on so fast I'm thinking maybe the acidity of the spicy sauce.
Is that why some people drink orange juice with mushies? the acidity?
or am I way off here?

[shedthemonkey]

works for morels, tho fresh is somewhat better. give it a try and let us know!

Personally. I wouldn't try it. I've had cracker dry psilo mushrooms get wet and they were useless for tripping. They turned completely blue. Done! Maybe in a weird way an oil marinade would be different though. These damn mushrooms are weird! LOL! I'm still shocked at the fact you got high on the grilled one.

Slice em and put em in spaghetti. I have heard of many people cooking them in things and they always seem to work just fine. I don't know if maybe being in the shroom helps protect it more than we think. Maybe the worst thing is oxidation, not heat. Pislocin/cybin are weird molecules.
