First off, Happy Father’s Day to all. Rainy day today, so it’s pellet grill time. I did a round of thighs with garam masala, then while it’s all a greasy mess why not toss on some wings. They’re corn starched, Badia Cajun seasoning, Red Hot wing sauce. Also in the pic is a Red Hot Bloody Maria...

Nice, I don’t know if I could let a finished piece of meat rest overnight without sampling it. Looks great!

At least you’re aware of it and can plan for a BIG BBQ. I got busy and missed the demise of my garage fridge, didn’t even have a chance to throw a bbq. Worst of it was all my homemade sausage and smoked meats and cheeses were in there. Couple more weeks and you can have a giant 4th of July bash.

Yeah, the same Samsung in the video. Besides being pretty, it sucks. Switched away from Samsung completely. LG washer dryer, switched to LG TVs, switched to iPhones - kinda done with Samsung.

Yeah, I usually pay twice as well. Once to see if I like it, or can diy something - then a quality replacement once I’m convinced. Thing is, now you see the quality difference and hopefully feel a little better about the cash outlay. Looks solid, congrats.

I have the nightmare model too. This is definitely one of those times extended warranty is worth the money. They’ve defrosted it for us a number of times, silicones the icemaker, replaced the icemaker at least twice now. They’re coming back tomorrow because the icemaker and water are totally...

Thanks everyone for the kinds words. I’ll take this opportunity to post a pic of the smoker too, my son built it as a semester project- I think he did a pretty good job. Quarter inch steel, he used the calculator for size and openings, I’ve got the stainless adjuster wheel at the firebox door. I...

It’s my 4th cook on this smoker, it’s actually a little easier than I thought it would be. Today was hot n fast brisket, mostly hovering between 275-300. Saved somewhere between 5 and 8 hours over doing 225 overnight on the pellet grill. 12 lbs, trimmed, traeger prime rib rub because I had half...

Are they really ok with pellets? Seems an offset is neither gas or charcoal as well . Congratulations I’ve been wanting a bullseye but two webers and a mountain of charcoal still to use up. I’ve read lots about people switching to heavy cast iron grates to help hold the temps more steady. Good...

Fire stick on all my TVs. I use 0 smart features on my TVs because of their crazy EULAs. LG has like 8 agreements including of course analytics on my viewing, scanning my local network and sampling my voice commands and analytics across all my subscriptions. I know everything is tracked, in...

High score? J/K - thermocouple went crazy, Recteq quickly sent a replacement. I did hit 783* on my initial burn-in, obviously I had to go to FUL and see what happens, just like you did. The stainless warps at that heat but bounces right back as it cools.

Which pizza gizmo did you get? I see you’re also going for grill grates, don’t forget a griddle as well. That would be a pretty complete set of accessories.

Recteq site claims 15 butts.

Is it Carnitas? Braised then broiled or deep fried or direct fired? (Pork)

Cool info, thanks!
