    WAGYU BEEF

    I had the fortune to visit Kobe Japan for business back in 2008.... I was able to try authentic "Kobe beef" and it was just pure joy.  The only reason I haven't tried it again is I'm not sure how the taste maybe effected by the freezing, import, distribution process when I was able to have it...

    Kitchen knives

    I recently got fed up with the faberware knives my wife has. So I bought a Wusthof Classic Hollow-Ground Santoku on Amazon. This knife is wicked sharp! Worth every penny so far. You need to get the Santoku sharpener though since the sharpening angle is different then western knives. I plan to...

    Dumped the ECB 2 door before the wife dumps smokin

    Nice!, I have to get the 2 letter code off the top damper at lunch time and snap a picture of the damage and they'll drop me a new lid in the mail. BOOM! =) Thank you for the heads up on how great their support is. The person was very friendly and no hassle, probably could have had one call...

    Pork shoulder, looking for post smoke advice

    I did start with water in the pan, there was even water in the pan still when I added fuel in the morning. But it dried up at some point between the last time I added some wood chunks and when the temp reached 196 and I checked on the meat. That is when I found the drippings were burning and I...

    My wife has us on the same setup, no wine during the week. We started this week. We'll start over again today... Wife comes home last night "Have a glass of wine with me"... It was her idea in the first place so I'm not going to stop her if she wants to violate her own rule. The Martini after...

    Gettysburg bbq , pro and backyarder

    I will probably be there but I don't plan on competing. I just started smoking so I think I'll be observing for awhile. Would sure like to gleam some know how from anyone / everyone though =)

    Its a common misconception that screw caps are a sign of cheap wine. As the price of cork has gone up many wine makers have switched to screw caps as a cost savings measure. If all wines were screw caps, you wouldn't have to worry about humidity in your wine cellar. They only reason to control...
