    Charcoal flavour

    What kind of charcoal are you using? Various brands are stronger in flavor than others. I've used Stubbs and Cowboy and the flavor was extremely strong. Used Royal Oak and it was not as strong. Just a thought.

    My 2nd prime whole packer brisket smoking experience!!!

    I purchased a case a few months ago at the Appleton Costco, and it was $2.69/lb. Their choice wasn't available by the case, but was $3.69/lb. buying them singly. Do people prefer not to use prime for corned beef and pastrami that they are selling prime cheaper than choice?

    My 2nd prime whole packer brisket smoking experience!!!

    I've cooked a lot of brisket, and I would be proud to share that one with any of my friends. Nice job, just don't drop down to choice now.....I think once you have prime brisket, choice will likely disappoint you.

    Poor man's SV ribeye steaks

    Thank you Hillbilly. By "poor man's", I meant the setup is cheap......stock pot, stove top and a Thermopop, vs buying a gadget. Effectively, the results should be equivalent with the exception that my setup requires some monitoring.

    50% of the fun is trying, the other 90% is eating, am I right? :rotflmao: Seriously, I had to try based on what others were posting about SV steaks. My conclusions vary from their experiences, and could be helpful for others, however, I say to anyone curious enough, try it yourself, and decide...

    Poor man's SV ribeye steaks

    I wonder about some of the over the top comments. Not saying this is the issue for all of them by any means, but if I didn't already know how to make an excellent steak on my Kamado using a reverse sear, I would really like this method more. Plus, with a unit, it would be very hard to screw up...

    Chuck roast - Now with the Final photos.

    I have tried a couple of things in a homemade setup. Burgers turned out more juicy and perfect doneness, steaks were ok, but as of now, I much prefer the grill. The advantages I'm seeing are the ability to take from frozen to plate quickly in a rush, warming up leftovers, tastier vegetables, and...

    Nice work, my friend. Lots of time and effort, but I'm sure it is rewarding.....looks like it is anyway.

    Poor man's SV ribeye steaks

    I will get to the pics first, then post comments since you probably only care about the pics.......:drool Drying off prior to the skillet. You can see where this steak was up against the other steak. I like fried onions. About 30-40 seconds per side. I do like a little steak with my...
