    Help! Need a great bbq sauce recipe

    I'm throwing a party for my friends engagement and he has a few big time chef friends that have heard about my pulled pork. I typically don't sauce, but I need to have a sauce available, and it needs to be good. No store bought thank you for your help!

    Doing a comp soon, need to perfect my half chicken.

    That's a great idea! Thanks for the pics. Are you saying you mop the chicken with beer and dr pepper? I'm looking to make a thin type sweet but also spicy kind of BBQ sauce. In Louisiana we love the spice, so I imagine the judges are going to look for some. I want them to Bite through sweet and...

    Doing a comp soon, need to perfect my half chicken.

    I tried it on my kettle at first I tried to beer can stand it and it was too tall, then my fire started getting crazy from being open I had to remove my top rack and then take the chicken off the beer can stand and laid it flat in a pan. Had I been outside 10 minutes sooner to start my base I...

    Doing a comp soon, need to perfect my half chicken.

    Yea it's one of those ones for me where I feel confident in my brisket and ribs but chicken is hit or miss for me. I've done beer can chickens, but they were black and the white meat was dried out before the dark meat cooked all the way. What do I do?! Lol

    Doing a comp soon, need to perfect my half chicken.

    Nooo I rarely ever use hickory. I mix a fruit wood with pecan wood usually. Or I'll mix oak and a fruit wood. What kind of oil to rub with, vegetable oil? I like the idea of no seasoning so it's just an even color but if the skin stays on they would bite through if still and it would need...

    Doing a comp soon, need to perfect my half chicken.

    Yea that's what I was doing. Low and slow and then I'd kick the temp up towards the end to crisp the skin up. Or at least make it bite through but by that time the skin is black. I don't use sugar in my chicken rubs I know that doesn't work well for the high heat. I need to plan out my schedule...

    Doing a comp soon, need to perfect my half chicken.

    The comp is for brisket, spare ribs, and half chicken. I have a WSM and a crappy 22.5" kettle grill. I'm pretty confident about my ribs and brisket, but I can't seem to get that perfect skin on chicken. I know about kicking the temp up, but before I get to that stage the skin is basically black...

    Smoking 6 racks of ribs for GFs family, any tips or suggestions?

    Yea I don't want to get to crazy, I should probably stick with my guns. I will do a half and half, one way more sweet than the other. Keeping it halfway there like dandl93 would say haha. I'm having her mother do a potato salad, and my gf is going to do something. Thankfully I get to smoke the...

    Smoking 6 racks of ribs for GFs family, any tips or suggestions?

    what kind of spicy rub do you like on your ribs forddood? I plan to do half one way and half another. I'm doing a sweeter recipe with help from foamheart. He gave me a great combo of flavors to try and will definitely do. I'm thinking pecan and cherry or pecan and peach or just peach. My gf said...

    Smoking 6 racks of ribs for GFs family, any tips or suggestions?

    i've smoked ribs a few times and I've loved the results, but it's been quite a while and now i have to do 6 racks to impress. I'm certainly going to do a half and half because I like variety. Great suggestion, I only have large splits of pecan wood and chunks of cherry. Can I use one large chunk...

    Smoking 6 racks of ribs for GFs family, any tips or suggestions?

    I have a WSM 22.5" and a rib rack for the inside. Just wondering what type of wood should I use, what method of smoking, foil it or let it run low unfoiled with mops every 30, etc. My girlfriend's family is full of foodies so I really need to impress here. My gf brags about my bbq to them all...

    Mahogany spareribs(with Q view)

    that's quite beautiful. did you sauce it or just go wit the brown sugar, butter, honey glaze during foiling? I'm smoking six racks this weekend in my WSM 22.5" for my girlfriend's family. The pressure is on because they're big foodies, any tips you can give me?
