    Blueberry-Cherry Rub on Spares: Q-View

    Erik  I love the sound of the rub ingredients   do you think if you had fresh blueberries and cherries etc..  you could make a wet rub with it?   I'm sure if I look hard enough I'll find dried blueberries I've just got some fresh ones that are on the verge of being too ripe.   Just wondering?

    My 1st Brisket

    Good advice.  Unless you've trimmed it down to no or almost no exterior fat  you'll have juices that are just too fatty (TOO FATTY  did I say that in my outside voice)  anyway,  nice to get a little bit of a sear that will happen from being on the grate to start with.   I put mine over the...

    Those look great.  I have often wondered if the cheese mixture was made ahead of time and placed in the freezer for a little hile to make it very. very cold, it might make it goey and good by the time they're done but reduce the risk of loosing it to oozing.   Just wondering.
