    Thermoworks RFX Shipping info?

    For reference, today is week 4.14 of the estimated "shipping in 3-4 weeks" announcement made on 9/10. Still no shipping notification. We ordered a 4 probe set. If I'm a betting man, I am guessing single probe orders have a higher priority. I get it (I don't like it). But that's 4 happy...

    One More Time Throw-down: Poultry

    And of course that would be because my ADHD brain read "prepaid" instead of "prepared". I need help. :-)

    One More Time Throw-down: Poultry

    The rules mentioned an entry fee. Is that still a thing?

    Here are the lyrics..... Song and band???

    In light of the great and mighty Google, this game isn't as challenging as the "back in my day" era. But back in my day, this was my go-to lyric (from the greatest album ever made) "I want to go home Take off this uniform and leave the show And I'm waiting in this cell because I have to know...

    Thermoworks RFX Shipping info?

    I saw that. And I like that they are adding a case to preorder folks. That said, I'd feel better about an actual shipping notification. Notifications about upcoming notifications are starting to mold. Message we received: Dear Josh, In line with our last update on RFX, we’re excited to...

    1st underground pig roast

    Side observation: Any cook recipe that requires a backhoe is definitely on my yet to be completed bucket list. Pomaika'i!

    Thermoworks RFX Shipping info?

    Since tomorrow will be 3 weeks from when T-Works announced there would be a 3-4 week delay, I reached out to them via chat. They would not give definitievly updated ETAs (I get it) but said based on my pre-order date, would hopefully get an email at the end of this week or early next with...

    Chamber Vac Sealer

    I know you said you didn't want to invest $1k in a vaccum. But I picked up a Vacmaster VP230 in 2021 and have never had a single problem with it. At the time, VacMaster was a local company (Kanas City) that was made in the USA. Since I don't see a reference to this on their website, I would...

    Thermoworks RFX Shipping info?

    I was in the process of posting this when I got your post update. This was my concern all along given the lack of updated information from T-works. Oh well. It isn't a tragedy and should be an every day reminder why I should never pre-order anything interesting. I'm not patient enough. :-)

    Brisket, RFX, and a BFG...

    You right. But the brisket was in fact good on 9/7

    Brisket, RFX, and a BFG...

    Had really hoped the RFX probes would be in by now. Sort of half joking I guess, ThermoWorks said they would ship in September. Well...it's September. :-) But I couldn't wait any longer and needed to do a decent sized overnight packer brisket. When I got things setup, I realized something I...

    Pork Butts

    If you don't mind buying in bulk, Sam's club (at least here in the mid-west) is about $2.28/lb for a crate. I think that is 8 butts per crate.

    Thermoworks RFX Shipping info?

    Has anyone heard any information on actual ship dates for the T'Works RFX? I knew when placing my order that the estimated shipping was "September". But as we are closing out of August, I'm realizing "September" is starting to sound longer than what I hoped. And, yes, I'm not a patient human.

    My DIY, very cheap, very ugly cold smoker!

    For cheese, I use a cardboard box, tin can with wood pellets, and a soldering iron stuffed in the can. Yours is light years ahead of my setup. Looks good.

    What pellet grills have Auto Relight?

    Pretty sure recteq has this feature. When you navigate to the auger minimum feed rate section of the control app it says bla bla bla bla "... grill has experienced a flame out and automatically re-ignited".

    Sous Vide Filet Mignon

    Wow. Haven't been around in a really long time and already learned something new. Have been cooking SV for 3-4 years....and often go below 130 on steaks. I guess I never gave it a second thought...until now. I'd never smoke in the danger zone that long. Not sure why I thought it would be OK...

    Geek's Chocolate Pig Candy

    So, I'm calling this a Geek's recipe, but I'm sure someone here has done this. I'll take away the name if I offend anyone. I've always thought chocolate and pig candy would go well together. So I gave it a shot tonight. Here's my recipe for pig candy, and the additional process of coating in...

    Dark Bark on pulled pork?

    Rub it down lightly with yellow mustard and then apply the rub.  Keep adding rub in batches until the moisture is completely covered.  You will get more rub to adhear to the meat and will have a thicker bark.  Then spritz with something that has sugar in it every hour; don't use pineapple juice...
