This seems like cheating
Hello all, I just purchased a Weber 2820 Smokey Mountain Cooker/Smoker. Holy cow are the temps steady and the burntimes long in this thing. I have used it twice now and it feels like cheating it is so easy to use. For example, last night at 5:30 PM I put about 3/4 of a chimney of unlit...- jabo

Too Hot
I know some guys that are smoking/bbq'ing their pork butts at 350 degrees. This just doesn't seem right to me and what I know about smoking, but I really don't know why I like to keep my temps at 220 - 250 degrees. What does it hurt to cook the butts at a temp as high as 350? Jamie PS Low... -
bar-b-chef offset smoker for sale
I have a bar-b-chef offset smoker that I would like to sell. It is too big to store easily around the house. It is less than 1 year old and has been covered all of it's life.

Fried Butt
Well, I fried a butt. It turned out great. I injected it with a cajun spice and rubbed it down with some Tony C's, heated my oil to 375 degrees and fried it to an internal temp of about 175. I will do this again. One thing, I read that it would take about 8 minutes per pound. This is just... -

Ham for the Holidays
country cured ham can take months and is done with a dry rub. City cured, or wet cured hams take about a week to 10 days. I am going to buy my fresh ham right now -

bar-b-chef offset smoker
I thought that I was typing out my direction so well. I can't ever figure out what someone is talking about without a picture either. OK, here they are, and before anyone gives me a hard time - yes I used galvanized bolts, however I burned all of the zinc off of them before using them. I used...- jabo

Ham for the Holidays
A fresh ham is like a butt until it is cured. I am going to cure a fresh ham soon. For Thanksgiving I am going to use a fully cooked ham. -
Cooking for the Office T-Giving Party has begun
OK, I got to worked and was mobbed by co-workers so after pics are non-existant, but I took enough along the way to give everyone a good idea of how things were coming along. How did I like it? The ham was OK, a little much for me but it went over pretty well at work. The turkey was great and...
