    Nitrile glove thickness

    What mil thickness of nitrile gloves do you use for cutting meat? I see people all day long on TV handling hot brisket and slicing with black nitrile gloves. I'm wondering which thickness lessens the scorching of one's hands.

    Pit vs. Commercial Smoker

    I am asking which cooking device you prefer to eat meat from, a pit or commercial smoker.  This isn't which you prefer to cook on.  Anyone who mentions an oven will be reported. ;)

    First Catering Tasting

    It went very well.  We took our food out there with serving utensils, plates, and drinks.  Basically everything that we would provide for an event.  We let them know that we are just starting and that any input is appreciated.  I think the biggest thing that made it easier was our food.  They...

    Smoker duration issue

    New guy with chicken question

    I smoke mine to 170 degrees when they are done.  We then put them in vacuum bags (the ones you can microwave/boil) and then freeze or refrigerate the bags.  You can then pack them and reheat when ready.

    catering and bbq

    I was wondering the same thing while at a friends wedding this past weekend.  They had BBQ catered.  The brisket was cooked in an oven and had no noticeable smoke flavor.  The sides were the typical sysco stuff in a bucket.  I was in awe as all of the BBQ was being eaten, but then it came to me...
