    Need some guidance in making a rub

    That is the one rub i havent tried. Really looking to make my own rub that is sweet and spicey. Will have to give that one a try for sure.

    Need some guidance in making a rub

    Tried cherry syrup and cherry coke. I like cherry coke better. Cherry syrup is too sweet and too heavy on cherry without diluting. Cherry coke is well balanced. Cherry wood is a subtle smoke, will try other woods. I like the brown sugar rub over sugar rub.both brines were too salty so I think I...

    Need some guidance in making a rub

    Im in MI, home of cherries. Cherry flavored bbq seems fitting. I like it so far. Oak, cherry, and maple are abundant here. Cherry is tart with a decent flavor so I was thinking sweet and smokey with a hint of cherry would be bomb. Ive had cherry bbq sauce too. I like it as long as the cherry...

    Will give that a shot. Sounds interesting. Will it tighten the meat at all or everything be cool?

    Ive tried cherry wood as well for smoking but need a offset attachment and a burn barrel. Any guidance in a brine for ribs and pork butt? Really interested innthe soda brine. Might have to try it this weekend. Does the acid effect the meat like most acids?

    Need some guidance in making a rub

    Heard koolaid doesnt work well but am very interested in the soda brine. Never done a brine before for pork. Cayenne and jalapenos is what i was thinking for heat since it isnt super hot and flavorful. I paid for some cherry dry rubs but they dont have enoug cherry flavor and too much cumin and...

    Need some guidance in making a rub

    I want to make a rub based on Cherry flavor. Im cool with the brown sugar for sweet, not a huge fan of strong cumin and chilli flavor. Anyone work with cherries? Does it carry over through smoking good? What would work for heat? Jalapeno? Cayenne? Should i use a hotter pepper?

    Raspberry/Blueberry Chipotle BBQ Sauce

    I tried a blueberry one at mall of america, not sure what brand. It was good but heavy on the sweet and blueberry note. Id imagine to counter it youd want heavy smoke flavor. Or dial it back a bit.

    Playing with smoke

    Currently driving a big rig on the open road with job offers to be home daily working locally. A hobby Im itching to pursue is putting MI on the bbq map. Pre burning some wild cherry wood i split at my brothers. Experimenting with two different cherry dry rubs to make my own. I still need to get...

    OK Highland

    Just a heads up on seasoning the grill, flax seed oil is the best choice. I use it on all my cast iron skillets and my smoker. It has to do with how it adheres and bonds with the metal once you reach high enough temp to smoke off. It has great polymerization.

    Whats the scoop on burn barrels?

    Ive always cheated using the hickory charcoal you can buy at the store, but that was before I started getting really into it. Always small amounts and indirectly and it worked great for me starting out with everything Ive ever cooked. I like the burn barrel idea because it seems more forgiving...
