    Need Help with CB...And I'm CANADIAN!! LOL

    Folks, it's time to have a 1st go at it. I've been a devotee to the q for a few years now, and a few smoker builds under my belt, and looking for a bit of help. Ribs, shoulders, pulled, ABT's & bacon bombs are all second nature, but a "beast" has reared it's head & I'm asking for help.   Here's...

    UDS burn time-What Should I Expect??

    Hey folks, I've been a devotee of bbq a few years now & just sold my filing cabinet smoker. Being able to get free fuel in the form of hardwood pallets at work means I've never tried charcoal.  Ribs, pulled,sausages, and whole loins for smoked chops are the extent of what I've done. Brisket is...

    Help with retaining heat in cold weather?

    Depending on the size of the smoker, try water heater insulation blankets, or insulation laminated to woven plastic. The company I work for sells the plastic to the insulation companies to laminate. I'm in the process of trading some tarp material for some heater blankets now!!

    Gloves

    I got some nitrile for handling raw stuff, and I DID have a nice set of Ove Gloves w. silicone dots for working inside my smoker. That was UNTIL my Yellow Lab found them on the counter & figured they smelled good, how about a good chew on 'em?? They were a Nomex/kevlar blend too. One of the best...

    Tokyo Rebel-A take on Alabama White Sauce

    A few years back, I became familliar with the Bob Gibson's recipe for Alabama White Sauce, as I was in need of a special sauce for a cottage party weekend. I've done a bit of experimenting with it, and came up with a bit of a twist on it. Rather than blaspheme the name( far be it from me to...

    Montreal BBQ Potatoes

    Only prob with foil pans is that they're thin & only used once. This way it's rigid, and can't be punctured without a sword,; )

    Montreal BBQ Potatoes

    So, how many times have you cooked foil packs of veggies on the side while grilling some form of beast? AND how many times have you cursed a blue streak when you puncture the foil, all your bountiful butter spills out & starts up, rivalling the Chicago Fire? NO MORE!! I make my Montreal BBQ...

    Need Help From Canadians

    I saw Jimmy Dean sausage in the tube at the Superstore here in Nova Scotia last week. Try other Loblaw's stores as well. Most meat dept's decide on what stuff like that they order themselves, so a talk with the Meat Manager may help. There's also bulk sausage meat available at the store here...

    Semi New Guy from Up North

    Om nom nom nom. The ribs finished soooo nicely. 3-2-1- did it superbly. The modified Southwest Chipotle finishing sauce was decent, but I'll go back to my standby Jack Daniel's sauce for the next time. Nice bark, smoke ring & oh so juicy!! Overdone by 10 minutes, but still great!! Here's the...

    The El Commodore is getting the fire tomorrow. Gonna play with the stack & inlet to maintain a constant temp for a while. Using maple, as it was free, and dry. Thanks to my co-workers busting pallets, I spent my lunch break dismantling & cutting it up into foot long pieces. Only thing i have...
