    Are silicone mats necessary?

    I'd say no, water will still end up getting underneath if its in an uncovered spot. Mine is left uncovered 24/7 here in Northwest Arkansas, aside from the time I had it covered with a silicone matt and the top is still very black. I've had it for 6 years and rust hasn't been an issue for the...

    Beef Short Ribs - Weber Kettle

    you know, short rib isn't nearly as flattering in the case like a ribeye or strip might be which makes it difficult to pull the trigger when I see the price tag... it's pictures like this that prove to me the cost is worth it. Heck of a job.

    Pulled Chicken Sammys

    Love pulled chicken. Usually do a whole bird but thought I’d give chicken thighs in a pan a try and they turned out pretty good! Need to make a few adjustments but 10/10 will make again. I did a honey chipotle seasoning that was great on a brioche bun with a vinegar forward slaw. Best part...

    Creative uses for the Vortex

    So I just got a Vortex and I'm taking it for its maiden voyage for a late lunch (Sticky Asian party ribs) to watch the Razorbacks v St Johns tomorrow (Go Hogs Go). That said, what else can I use this bad boy for other than what's advertised? One thought was snake method around the cone and...

    Things to buy at Asian Store?

    If you like heat, Huy Fong Sambal Oelek Chili Paste If you wanted to get cute with some filet medallions, you could pick up some quail eggs and cook them sunny side up and put them on top. Haven’t tried this yet but I’ve seen it done before and want to try it. I’m also a big fan of Asian...

    Should I pull the trigger on a PBC?

    Ouch! Yeah, that shipping cost negates any savings. For that price it’s worth the drive if you want it. Luckily, my Academy is close.

    Should I pull the trigger on a PBC?

    Been smoking on a kettle for years and have been getting the itch to upgrade. I’ve been between an UDS build v WSM or PBC. Academy has the 22” PBCs for $199 right now. Seems like a no brainer but I maybe missing something….
