    First fatty tries 8/17

    Poblanos have been my favorite pepper for a long time, probably 20 years now. Roasted up a bunch the other night. Will be making up a recipe for them for Sat night I think.

    Kitchen Aid Meat Grinder?

    The deceased MIL is going to get you? I have the KA grinder. Have the big KA model, not sure the watts, but it's a 5.5 qt bowl. Never had a problem with it. Never did more than 10 lbs of meat at a time though.

    All BBQ Equipment for Sale

    I showed this video to my 12 year old son and he was making faces as soon as he saw that mousy gray meat coming out of the oven. When I FFed to the end product with the caked on sauce, he muttered something like eww yuck. He was served something like that years ago by a family friend that ran...

    Pork Brisket Strips...

    Translation of the spanish is: strips of skirt with bone Either smoke them like spare ribs or, if really boneless, butterfly if necessary to get them pretty thin, marinate like you would for beef carne asada and grill em up mexican style.

    Madrone, Tan Oak, and Pepperwood

    Madrone is also known as Arbutus up in BC. We have one planted in the yard, but not big enough to be dropping any limbs for me. I have access to some Tan Oak if I want it. Would be nice to know how it does.

    Hope the fires stay away so you can have some time to experiment with what you see here.

    Hardware question??

    I found these first in the fishing tackle aisle myself. 12" butcher for knocking big fish down to size and 9" fillet for the rest of the job.

    Paprika. What's the big deal?

    You should be able to get the Szeged brand at Kroger or Publix in Atlanta if they don't have it in Augusta. The hot one is hot like cayenne pepper.

    Hardware question??

    I use the Henckel's 4 stars. I don't put em in the DW, but the wife does and they survive going on 18-20 years now. Not cheap, but they last a long time and do a great job. There are a lot of good inexpensive knives out there now though. I like the Dexter-Russell SaniSafe knives as well...

    First fatty tries 8/17

    Just my 10 inch slicer. Zoomed in a bit I guess. Looks puny next to the 10 inch chef's knife I use for chopping.

    First fatty tries 8/17

    Got the idea for the mojo sauce from the beef forum here. Don't remember who it was, but if you search the beef forum for mojo you will find it. Mojo criollo is a spanish/cuban oriented marinade. Pretty much mandatory on a cuban sandwich. You can find it at mexican/cuban/spanish markets.

    First fatty tries 8/17

    A little while later the 2nd fatty was ready to come out and we had to grab a few ABTs because they looked like they needed checking. Poblano/cheese fatty sliced up, awesome taste to it. After a little trip over to a neighbor's for some more taste testing, we came back to get the rest of...

    First fatty tries 8/17

    After browsing around here some, I decided I wanted to try doing some fatties, which I had never heard of before a few weeks ago. I loaded the smoker up with some beef ribs, two fatties, and a batch of ABTs. Here's the ingredients for the first one: 1 lb spicy breakfast sausage a bit more...

    Wood choice for pulled pork

    I don't think you can go wrong with the hickory on pork. I would save the apple for chicken or fish. Some pecan might be good though.

    Grill Pizza Stone?

    Thanks for the writeup on your experiences. I have seen writeups of how to do it, but never detailing the mistakes I would be likely to make as well. I am going to try something similar very soon.

    Image help

    Get IrfanView to resize, etc. It's free and very easy to use. www.irfanview.com All the new bazillion megapixels cameras make huge picture files. Like said above, resizing to 800x600 or 640x480 (The original 1M pixel size) should shrink them down to fit through the limits.
