    WSM Maiden Voyage w/ Chuckie - Q-VIEW

    Hmmm... I may be looking at a lemons/lemonade moment.  The chuck roast is for tonight's dinner, but it's cooking MUCH faster than I expected.  I've used a Thermopen to verify what my ET-732 is telling me and the temps are on target.  Here's the rundown: At 9:00, I added the chimney to the...

    WSM Maiden Voyage w/ Chuckie - Q-VIEW

    I've got to admit, I am VERY pleased with the temperature control of the WSM.  My OTG/CB worked decently well using a Minion snake, but the temp would vary by 20 degrees and I'd have to tinker with it a lot.  And using a Minion snake limited my cook times to 6 hours or so. The WSM on the other...

    WSM Maiden Voyage w/ Chuckie - Q-VIEW

    Last November, my family gave me a new Weber Smokey Mountain smoker for my birthday.  I've previously used a propane gasser and a Weber OTG with a Cajun Bandit extender, but I've always wanted a WSM. The weather has not cooperated over the winter, so today is the first chance I've had to use...

    It's not just the bacteria themselves, remember that some bacteria produce poisonous waste products (like botulin) that can survive the heat.  So while cooking may eventually kill the bacteria, if the cook takes too long the bacteria may make enough waste to sicken the consumer.

    50th Birthday Party-Q with Q-VIEW

    We all had a great time!  As we get older, the family moves apart and moves forward; these get-togethers are further apart and mean more when they happen.  Everybody said how much they preferred the BBQ over going to a restaurant. So when my mother gave me my birthday present, everybody...

    50th Birthday Party-Q with Q-VIEW

    B-DAY! The night before B-Day, the firm weather forecast called for clear skies, with high winds in the morning, winds calming after lunch.  It was a last minute decision, but I decided to make two pans of Myron Mixon's "cupcake chicken."  I made up a half batch of rub with two differences...
