    Developing a fusion bbq sauce

    Being originally from Michigan, and residing the past 20 years in northern Indiana, I have pretty much grown up on KC style bbq.  Sweet, a little spicy, and red. Last week I was in the local bbq joint, and decided to try the "Carolina" style sauce. It changed my life.  But to be honest, I...

    First Packer Brisket

    Overall pretty disappointing. Last week I did a flat, and it had much better flavor. Unfortunately this point on this brisket wasn't done. It was very tough and inedible (put it in the oven). While the flat was very tender, the smoke flavor just wasn't there. Next time, I won't foil...

    First Packer Brisket

    Foiled after about 8 hours. Struggling to get consistent temps on the UDS. Just the valve = too cold, just one cap open = too hot :( I think I need a different valve. Using a 3/4" gate valve.

    First Packer Brisket

    Definitely not what I had hoped for. This might be hard for someone who's used to all that central Florida sun, if the wind stays down, it isn't too bad out. Been checking temps in a sweatshirt. Almost 2 hours in, 27 degrees outside, 265 inside.

    First Packer Brisket

    I picked up an 11# choice packer this week for about $3/#. They had been forecasting mid 40's for today, but now they're saying that's tomorrow, and it's not going to be above freezing all day. Unfortunately, I'll be away from the house all day tomorrow. Trimmed it up and sprinkled with...

    Moving from breasts to thighs

    About how long should it take to get them to temp?

    Moving from breasts to thighs

    Of the hundreds of times I've cooked chicken, I've never moved off the breasts.  But today I noticed the grocer had leg quarters for $.49/lb.  I couldn't pass it up, but I don't really know how to cook them.  At first I was thinking grill them because that's what I've always done with chicken...
