    Griddle Purchase

    I will second that my black stone is very stable and has a rear grease drain. I am guessing they have improved them since you cooked on one.

    Three Fatties for Friends

    I like to stick the probes center of mass, usually means middle of the filling. I usually smoke at 275 until the internal temp reaches 185-200, that’s when I find the bacon has developed the proper crispiness I like.

    Three Fatties for Friends

    Had some friends over last night so I decided to serve them fatties. A few general pics followed by the specifics. 1. This was most everyone’s favorite, a philly steak themed fatty. I sautéed some onions, peppers and mushrooms in some butter then added some brown sugar for the last few...

    Venson & Pork Snack Stick = Fail

    Venson & Pork Snack Stick = Fail

    All, So my pregnant wife cannot stand the thought of brats, of any kind. Unfortunately we had a 250 pount hog butchered last winter and I also shot 2 nice sized deer and had a good amount of each made into brats because we typically love brats. I decided to use my Teriyaki Cabelas snack stick...
