    Garlic brined pulled pork tacos (Q-view)

    Hmm, I've never thought of adding a bit of char to the meat. I bet, that'd add a nice dimension! I wish we had more than only 1 more meal's worth. But my fridge doesn't have enough room to brine two shoulders!

    Garlic brined pulled pork tacos (Q-view)

    This weekend I went all out. I made a pulled pork shoulder with a garlic brine from The Fatted Calf's cookbook:  I have made this recipe several times, but this was the first time I used it to make tacos. And let me tell you, you'll never want to eat regular tacos again! I brined the shoulder...

    First mozzarella cheese smoke

    I was worried about it tasting like an ash tray since it only mellowed overnight. However, I think I got lucky because I kept the smoke on the shorter side and there was plenty of oxygen and the smoke stayed thin and blue the whole time. In my case it was delicious the next day. It is all gone...

    First mozzarella cheese smoke

    Wow, I mean WOW. It's so much better than store bought! I recently bought an AMNPS for cold smoking and I fired it up for a test on Easter weekend. I am very satisfied with the results! I probably got lucky, but I only left the cheese out to mellow overnight and it tasted amazing. The...

    Kingsford on sale at costco

    The competition briquettes burn too hot and fast for my taste. Every time I use them I have to refill my basket after a few hours. And they make my offset reach temps of 300+ degrees. No good! I'm out of charcoal though... So even though I know I don't like em, I'll probably still buy em.

    From Hog Leg to Easter Ham!

    Pops, I have a similar question. I just ordered a fresh ham from the local butcher and was looking online, most recipes say brine for 1 day for every 2 pounds of meat. I know that eventually, the salt level will equalize inside the ham to match the brine. So does that mean that period of time is...

    Country style ribs

    that's interesting. I definitely want to make some country style ribs after seeing that newsletter. But I'm mostly obsessed with any kind of rib, babyback, spare, beef short ribs, country style.... etc etc... I haven't tried one I didn't like yet!

    proper temp for smoking ribs

    thanks for the tips! I currently use a wireless thermometer for the grill temp at grate level plus I added 2 grate level thermometers, one at each end of the smoking chamber. So this combined, with the 3-2-1 method. I've been doing 1.5-2-1 with the babybacks I've used this summer. I haven't...

    proper temp for smoking ribs

    So before finding this forum I had terrible luck with ribs. This was mostly because I didn't know how to properly set up my ECB nor did I actively measure the temperature, which I'm sure in many cases was either way to hot or way too cold. But since learning a few things and buying a new offset...
