    First Brisket - Heart Pounding

    Jehoric, I'm still learning temp control on my BGE. I am learning this exact lesson you posted above: once that ceramic heats up, it takes FORVER to come back down!! Once that plates setter and firebox extender heat up, that thing will run 300* for 6 hours on a handfull of lump. I'm still...

    Hello from Illinois, near WI border

    Welcome Kevin!! And this is sage advice: I'd opt for a pork shoulder (butt) which will not only win you instant converts in your family, but they are pretty tough to mess up, especially after you read alot of the tips here. Briskets can be tough cut to get a hold onto, and don't panic if the...

    Not so pullable pulled pork

    I believe Ron might mean what I do, which is while wrapping up I spritz it down real good with whatever I'm spraying with (apple juice, cherry juicebox juice, etc) But as far as needing to chop Doug, could you have had a picnic shoulder, and not a full butt shoulder? I know picnics (further...

    BBQ Contest - Invited to "See how it goes"

    Steer clear of bringing something like your brined chicken or any other item that could be misconstrued as a turn in item. If another team were to see you, they might call "foul" and end up with more headaches for your team. All of there Comp meat would have had to have gone through an...

    St. Louis cut...Rub ???'s

    This is 100% true. If your rub contains a bit of salt, even 12 hours can give you the briney (sometimes called "hammy") taste to the ribs. Ruined quite a few racks before learning this lesson. Now, I only rub about a half hour before, while the pit is warming up. Ribs only have, as the...

    freezing bq

    remove as much air as possible, or you'll get freezer burn. Agree with the Bassman, pull first. I actually vacu-seal before freezing, but portion out by: Pulling pork while hot, pulling into 9x13 glass pan, Add back in retained juices, Tamp down to flatten into dish (Pulled Pork Rice...

    My New Slicer W/Qview And Review

    I like how it comes apart easily, and you said it was easy (10min) to clean. My slicer is mucho olde version, and although mostly steel, none of the parts disassemble, meaning a freakin 30+ minutes to clean up, some areas with a toothbrush! Its because of that, that I use it rarely. Looks...

    Lang Throwdown?

    Is the Key Largo event back on for the first weekend in Nov? I was set too judge 3 years ago, then a hurricane hit. No power from FtLauderdale down the coast, so I skipped it. I think it was cancelled last year, but I hadn't heard about 2008. You hear anything Joe?

    Beans a butt?

    I would start them a bit after my initial cook begins. Like FBJ, I don't want TOO much added grease in there, just some good flavoring. Example: 7# Picnic I'd start the beans with about 5 hours to go, as around the last 2+ hours, I know the picnic will be wrapped in foil so only a controlled...
