    Lazy Ribs

    Had a rack of babybacks in the freezer unused from a larger meal I cooked a few months back. Decided to put them on today. Rode my bike to Publix this morning with my daughter (7) to pick up some stuff for sides, walked past the spice aisle. Normally make my own rubs but said screw it and...

    Been smoking pork butt for 3.5 hours...How would you finish it for dinner tonight?

    Some good advice here. I think you are definitely be looking at crutch and oven to get it done in time. You’ll sacrifice bark but people will be fed. Doesn’t help you today but I’ve found PP is best done a day or two ahead of time. No stress on timing and it tastes a lot better once it’s had...

    Blackstone with Pizza Oven / Air Fryer?

    Thinking about picking one of these up from Walmart. Anyone have one? Does the oven / air fryer work well? Not worried about the griddle working well, I know that will work. https://blackstoneproducts.com/collections/griddles/products/36-griddle-with-pizza-oven-air-fryer-edit

    Eggs are spendy. Careful when buying in Florida.

    We're coming up on mating season! Usually the only time of year I see them behind my house.

    What's your favorite off-the-shelf/store-bought barbecue sauce?

    So far for me it's SBR, but I'm keen to follow this thread for some better options. Not that I dislike SBR, but always looking to improve!

    Going to add a new smoker - advise please

    The 560 is not as big as you think, and in fact the main cook surface on your Texas Trio is bigger than the 560's total cook surface. (779 vs 560 sq in). Bellies and hanging sausage take a good bit of space, especially sausage with the need for a vertical component. I have a 1050 and I've...

    Going to add a new smoker - advise please

    What do you plan to use it for? The gravity vertical is strictly a smoker, while the 560 is a smoker than you can use as a grill (all the way up to 700f cook temps, if you dare push it that far). 560 will chew through charcoal a lot faster than the vertical, but is more versatile. It comes...

    Around here it’s ok if you get there before 10. Speaking of which, off to pick up some door hardware.

    Fast food pricing

    I'm with you here. Steaks, burgers, bbq - hell no, I can do better. The only things we eat out are things we can't or don't want to cook at home, which is basically sushi, Thai, and Indian. Once a month we'll get a nice takeout meal from one of our spots locally, other than that it's home cookin'
