    Chicken thighs, practicing for a KCBS competition

    I may have failed to provide an update! I entered the KCBS Red, White, and Que contest in Jackson, NJ in 2021 and 2022. I was in the backyard division, so only smoking chicken and ribs (the master division cooks chicken, ribs, brisket, and pork shoulder, though they are judged to the same...

    WSM wheels?

    This gets discussed occasionally on the Virtual Weber Bulletin Board. https://tvwbb.com Some ideas here: https://www.virtualweberbullet.com/wsm-on-wheels-platforms-casters-carts/ I like the looks of the triangular one, though I've no direct experience with it...

    Heads up...Costco has Kingsford Pro Comp back in stock!

    I saw Kingsford Pro Comp in the East Hanover, NJ Costco just yesterday. Surprised me. I'd recently bought a two-pack of the Kirkland brand, when that was all they had...haven't used any of it yet.

    Grilled pork tenderloin for the BBQ battle

    We were going to grill pork tenderloin this weekend anyway, but when I saw @bmudd14474 's fine idea of a weekend contest, I figured I'd take a few photos along the way. We had two 2.5 lb tenderloins, so after minor trimming I rubbed on with The Missing Link Spice Rub, the other with Meat...

    Cast iron brands

    Here is an interesting graphic on the chemistry of cast-iron cookware. I learned I'm not seasoning mine at a sufficiently high temperature (450F is recommended) https://cen.acs.org/food/food-science/Periodic-Graphics-chemistry-cast-iron/102/i9 There is a whole series of these on other topics...

    Hey from Switzerland

    Willkommen im Forum! Welche Gerichte werden dort traditionell geräuchert? Assuming you are from the German-speaking region of Switzerland. I'm pretty helpless in French or Italian.

    Re The Eclipse - Add your pics and experience here

    Late trip report, as I don't post trip plans to social media until after I'm home. We planned to drive to upstate NY. The forecast wasn't great, but it looked like the best odds were to get as far east as we had time for, on the southern shore of Lake Ontario. We ended up at the delightful...

    Just Curious On What All States Do?!

    Where in Idaho? I'm from Twin Falls, but now that I'm retired from a job that kept me on the east coast, we are planning to move back soon, probably to the Coeur d'Alene/Hayden area.

    What are you reading ?

    I've got a decent collection of Patrick McMannis books. About time for me to re-read them as well. I love his stuff! After years of wanting to read it, I finally got through Atlas Shrugged. It took quite a number of renewals of the library's e-Book to get through all 1200 pages. I...

    Smoker ran out of pellets, please help.

    The internal temp was below 140F for over 4 hours, which violates the 'don't let the meat be above 40F but below 140F for over 4 hours guideline. The graph cuts off before the internal temp gets back above 140, but it looks like it was going to be about 5 hours total in the danger zone. Not...

    Must have spices for your BBQ Cupboard

    Interesting. How do they taste? Do your brine or marinade them first? Sorry...I'll show myself out.

    Must have spices for your BBQ Cupboard

    Molasses, honey, and Accent (MSG) have their uses, though not as often as the ingredients already listed in this thread.

    Let's Build A Smokehouse

    Depending on the neighbors, I'd be tempted to install a toilet paper holder in the framed structure to give them something to think about. Once the siding goes on, they can really start to wonder...

    Beef Bourguignon

    Nice! I may have to try that as a slightly simpler version of the classic. A couple of years ago, after my wife sat me down to watch Julie and Julia, I set out to make Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon from her original recipe in "Mastering the Art of French Cooking". It's a famously complex...
