BBQ Smoked meats



Recommended Posts

How many post op'ers have tried BBQ'd meats? My favorite foods are smoked pulled pork and brisket. In moderation is this something i will be able to eat again.

I'm a Texas girl so yes I have tried BBQ since the surgery. I can eat it, but in very small amounts. It makes my pouch feel full after a few bites. But bbq baked Beans are now one of my favorite things to eat and Go down well.

i stayed away from bbq sauces because of the brown sugar in most.... but lately I have tried and been ok with baked Beans. I have tried some pulled pork and as long as I chew it really well I do fine, just really light on any sauce I put on it.

Hope you are able to enjoy some of your favorites.... it makes for a really tough road when you feel you are denying yourself so much!

Just take it easy and let your pouch tell you if its a go or not! You'll know right away what it likes or doesnt.

I can eat bbq meats (small amounts) no sauce, one of my favorite restaurants is 4 Rivers here in Orlando FL.

Had pulled pork twice this week, little sauce, no issue. Ive been very lucky though and other than some dumping with high carb foods and queasiness with super greasy foods, I can eat everything I used to eat. Granted, the amount is hysterical compared to previous! I don't seem to like meat in general as much as I used to though.

Have you tried Bush's baked Beans? We have some at home and I have been scared to try them!

I bet a Carolina style sauce would be good to use. I will have to do some home work and try making RNY friendly options on my smoker

Low sugar so probably yup! Splenda brown sugar might work as a sub, not sure if it would burn super easy or not.

I will have to try that spend a brown sugar in my rub and see if I can't make a BBQsauce with it.

I will have to say, for the amount of rub and sauce I eat, the sugar content had not been an issue (and I'm a dumper!) how much rub/sauce can you put on 1 rib....but yes, keep us updated with your recipes Pitt!!!!

I don't put tons of sauce on my pulled pork but it would be nice to have a sauce that wasnt to full of sugar for grilling chicken or using with turkey meatballs

I don't know how you feel about bottled sauces but Walden Farms makes a sugar free one. I have not tasted it but I know you can get it at Walmart. Also there are tons of recipes online for sugar free BBQ Sauce.< /p>

BBQ Sauce makes me dump and baked Beans do too.

Too much sugar!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
