    Meat from Costco?

    They recently built a Costco about 50 miles away from us. Currently we buy most of our meat from locally grown sources processed at local meat lockers. While some of it is actually much cheaper than you can find at grocery stores, not to mention better, some products like brisket and ribs can...

    Moonshiners Smoke Ring chicken

    This is not my recipe, but I found it somewhere online years ago and have been using it as my basic mop sauce every since. I am typing this from memory, but I am pretty sure this is dead on. 3/4 qt apple cider vinegar 1/4 qt apple juice 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp thyme 1...

    Culinary final meal.

    I was expecting someone to be on death row or something. :) Looks great, good luck!

    Bone in turkey breast help.

    Last summer I bought six boneless turkey breasts all around 6.5lbs. I cooked them two at a time, once a month, for three months. This was an experminet to decide how I was going to cook for house full of people on Thanksgiving. I brined the first two (48 hours), injected the second two (12 hours...

    My head is spinning! UDS vs WSM

    My head is no longer spinning. The purchase has been made. Thanks everyone for the feedback and advice, both in this thread and all over the forum. I went on a tour of grills/smokers. A buddy cooked me up some chops in a Camp Chef pellet grill, another one showed me his beloved Weber kettle, a...

    Thoughts on a Camp Chef SmokePro SE

    I have a Weber Genesis II 4 burner that I love and a local BBQ place that produces some amazing food. I had an MES for a few years but the build quality made 3rd string Chinese factory workers point and laugh. A part of me wants to jump into charcoal but I am inherently lazy on the weekends and...

    Thoughts on a Camp Chef SmokePro SE

    I have a buddy who owns a Camp Chef SmokePro SE and is going to be upgrading to a much newer Camp Chef with WiFi in a couple weeks. He is one of those guys who treats his property like it is irreplacable. When he showed me the SmokePro I asked him if he had ever even used the things, he replied...

    My head is spinning! UDS vs WSM

    Young, educated, smart, big income, and she's Swedish. Thank goodness she has poor decision making skills when it comes to men. I have watched so many video, read so many reviews, and spent so much time researching what to buy that at some point the internet should be paying me royalties...

    Pellets in the Great White North

    I do not. I gave it to my oldest boy who did just what you suggested and replaced the controller and did a few other mods. I am more of the just be mad and hate MB for the rest of my life sort of guys.

    Hot N’ Fast

    Nice. I definitely wouldn't skip dinner at your house to go to Arby's.

    Ahhhh Peep Peep Ahhhh Peep Peep

    Huh, I always thought smoking and peeps involved a green leafy substance. :emoji_wink:

    Pellets in the Great White North

    I am overthinking smokers to the extreme, so even though I am not sold on pellets - I am not automatically ruling them out either. My biggest concern is the electronics. I live where 30 degrees means you put the coat and gloves away and throw on some shorts. I started my smoking life with a...

    Finally dusted off the 26er and fired her up.

    Been there. Felt that. My condolences. Nice cook. Looks awesome.

    Yeah, I can believe it's not butter

    I must be missing something. Is it just to make it shiny, like the meat equivalent of car wax? It's incredibly unhealthy lab created fake food and in my never so humble opinion tastes like it came out of the North end of a South bound farm animal. Margarine tastes as close to butter as textured...

    Yeah, I can believe it's not butter

    So as I sit here watching grilling/smoking YouTube video after YouTube video, from pit masters to backwoods hillbilly cookers (the kind I trust the most), and I see people pouring Parkay and other squeezable yellow garbage onto otherwise good looking ribs and other meats. That's like having a...

    My head is spinning! UDS vs WSM

    Uh oh, I screwed up. Because I am taking too long to order something my better half started looking at smokers. She saw a Masterbuilt 1050 Gravity and thought it looked really cool and wants me to watch all kinds of videos on it. I told her that in my never very humble opinion Masterbuilt...

    DO NOT buy an "Expert Grill" Charcoal Chimney

    I presume 95% of the people who buy Expert Grill products will use them very casually 3 maybe 4 times per summer and then toss them in a shed. Or buy them as a short term unit until something of good quality comes in stock.

    Rec Teq*****

    That's awesome. Make sense to donate it to the fire department since all they do is lounge around eating all day. Just kidding! As a career long hired gun I can't let an opportunity to make fun of a hose dragger go by unfulfilled. :emoji_sunglasses:

    My new mutant Weber 22"

    Congrats! Every friggen' day I type "weber" into all of the local for sale and rummage sites looking for something like that. When I do get a match they want brand new pricing on a well used kettle. I may start posing as a county home inspector and start snooping behind people garages and sheds.
