Spare Ribs & Hobo Potatoes
Great looking plate. It's funny how it took me 20+ years to realize that 2 or 3 ribs is a serving, not 8 to 10. 😁 -
Paddlers?
Great pics. I went to high school with a guy named Shenandoah and everyone called him "Doah"....he didn't like it very much.- BBQ Bird

Money roast
Money muscle from a pork butt/shoulder? If so, did you butcher it out yourself and how much did it weigh? Looks fantastic. I need to do this. -
The Joke is On Karen
Apparently this video isn't real. It's a parody of a situation on Australia where a vegan tried to sue their neighbor for grill smoke coming into their yard. My neighbors next door are both vegetarians and, unfortunately, the prevailing winds usually carry my smoker or grill smoke right into... -
Deli Style Roast Beef
One of the grocery stores in my area sells cross rib chuck roast. Not sure if it has another name, but I've never seen it at any other stores. Beefier flavor than eye of round, IMHO. Low smoke for a couple hours, 132 sous vide for 24 hours, then quick sear in a hot skillet makes a fantastic...- BBQ Bird

Masterbuilt Gravity Feed
Interesting. I'm fairly certain that chunks in my hopper haven't burned up when packed high enough in the the hopper that they don't get used in a cook. However, I've been pretty good about adding the correct amount of charcoal lately, so I don't have a lot leftover. I thought that the...- BBQ Bird

Masterbuilt Gravity Feed
By repack, do you mean empty the hopper and refill, or just refill to the top every time? I usually don't empty the hopper. I just add new briquettes and chunks on top of what's in there. I most use the middle grate with a pan underneath it to catch drippings. I get the most consistent...- BBQ Bird

Unwrapped Baby Back Ribs
My last rib cook was a half rack of baby backs alongside some chicken thighs. It was my first no wrap cook and turned out fantastic. Plan on doing it that way again next time. -

Masterbuilt Gravity Feed
I also used wood chunks mixed in with the charcoal and added to the ash bin, so I don't think I could tell how much charcoal smoke vs wood smoke is affecting the flavor in the food. That being said, in my 800, I recently did a couple of cooks using the Kingsford briquettes that have apple wood...- BBQ Bird

Masterbuilt Gravity Feed
That could work, but seems like it would be annoying extra work around. If you had two full size racks, the support dowels for the upper rack would have to rest on the middle rack, and the middle rack would have to rest on the bottom rack. I could see myself accidentally knocking them out of...- BBQ Bird

Masterbuilt Gravity Feed
That is a pic of a 560 with their grates in it. The 2nd pic shows the grates in stalled in an 800: You can see that only the back half of the rack is supported by the rails on the side of the cook chamber. LSS says that it can support up to 30 lbs depending on weight distribution. So...- BBQ Bird

Favorite widely available bourbon or whiskey
One of the best whiskys there is. Love the sherry finish and peat combination.- BBQ Bird
