Season with something low sodium, then prep those marrow bones and get them on the grill high and fast for that flame on sizzle. Add the rich marrow liquid to a syringe. Then, completely blow up Thor's hammer like a balloon. And we're smoking over apple wood, low and slow. For the fire salt, it's Himalayan pink, three types of chilies, and whiskey to hold it all together. Time to cover in that fire salt. packing it in so it's nice and tight.
