    First Time Smoking!!

    Oak is not only not a rookie mistake but the choice of many a pro. It is the dominant smoking wood for real Texas BBQ so that oughtta tell ya something. How, when and if to wrap is among the most debated topics in smoking. Try things out til you find what you and yours like. In my most humble...

    Hi, it's me!

    Damn, you went whole hog, didn't you. That'll teach your brother to try to one up you. Man, that thing will probably prep the meat and do the dishes for ya. There are some pellet forums you there, but use the search function on this and you should find all you need to know on pellet grills...

    Let talk lump

    I find lump to be inconsistent among all brands I have tried. I do use temp control devices so it is no bother temp wise. I do use it occasionally, when there is a good buy on it. Good for hot and fast stuff like chicken or for grilling. But I have seen pieces of lump not be completely...

    Now that’s an ugly butt

    Chile, Yeah,I have actually trussed them up before, even did one that was bone-in that wanted to flop around. This wasn't too big and I just kinda tucked it in a pan and let er ride. Plus, my wife has been reorganizing again and I couldn't find the trussing string and neither could she. I always...

    2 MORE DAYS on the SANTA MARIA

    I have the Gabby SM attachment and also can attest to it. I burn oak most of the time. Great way to reverse sear some steaks. Did some 1 1/2 inch thick Tomahawk ribeyes the other night. Had it raised fairly high till they reached 110 and then lowered down close to the nice bed of oak coals for...

    Need a Brisket Plan Tonight

    Love that smoker! Please do post some more pics of it. FWIW, I have a Maverick ET733 (dual probe). that is about 3-4 years old. I keep spare probes on hand and check them periodically. The probes are easy to find and about $10-$12 per on Amazon. I can go a year on the same batteries as well.

    Now that’s an ugly butt

    I need to try my hand at some bacon one day. I’ve done sausage and Lox but never bacon. Hmmm..I feel a project coming on.

    Now that’s an ugly butt

    You guys are cracking me up. Yeah it’s a floppy, ugly beeeoch. But it’ll work. I was rooting around in the bin and they were bone in. I was looking for this size and grabbed it not realizing it was the only boneless one in the bin. Thanks Wally World. At about 3 1/2 hours in:

    Now that’s an ugly butt

    Like a goofball I accidentally got a butt that had the bone removed and it just looks funny. I’ve done boneless before I just don’t remember them looking quite this odd. Well, she’s gonna get started in a few. Pulled pork tomorrow!

    Rec-Tec Stampede or Trailblazer?

    Amaz-N tray + Pellet smoker = good Q. Just set the smoker for a very low setting for a couple of hours as that will maximize the smokiness (it will still not be too smokey for your wife). Then bump the temp up.

    Need a Brisket Plan Tonight

    What kinda pit are ya using? Are you using a temp control? In other words, can you go to bed and let the brisket ride? Do you have a leave in the meat probe that alarm you when it gets to a certain temp? Sorry for 20 questions. Here's what I would do: *Bump the heat up a tad (unless you are...

    Mixed Grill, Mixed Success, and I'm about to Spend Some Money

    As stated above, you should be able to make good Q with the cheap grill you have. A couple of thoughts and/or recommendations and observations: *Good on you with the snake method. You have learned well grasshopper. *Keep your top vent wide open and adjust temp with the bottom vents. *Get a...

    Rec-Tec Stampede or Trailblazer?

    As someone who has a Smoking-It and a pellet pooper, I would second keeping the Smoking-It and just adding the Rec Tec. My Smokin-It has been purposed for sausage making and for that alone it is worth keeping. If all you got is 3 BBQ tools, you need to add a net new tool. Hell, I think everyone...
