    Best Q restaurants in the world

    ANY list that has Famous Dave's can't be trustworthy. I was half expecting Rib Crib to make the list also. Kansas City has multiple BBQ offerings, and each offer something good. Jack Stack has great Cheesy corn and Gates' fries are good. Oklahoma Joes has wonderful coleslaw. But if you want BBQ...

    I smell like smoke...

    Welcome Lance to SMF! I had a similar experience several years ago with a wild turkey in a Brinkman bullet. I've never tried to smoke Pheasant, but I have had some success with duck and goose. The flavor has always been perfect, but the meat around the outside got too dry. If you haven't...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    While playing video games with my son I used the screen name DAD. He said I needed to use a cooler name, so I typed in STACKS. He wanted to know if I came up with it because I BBQ? I told him yes. (I actually got the nickname while playing blackjack, from a friend who wasn't as... skillful as...

    Brining a turkey

    Read on another string to use an oven turkey bag. Put your bird in and fill with the brine, squeeze out the excess air and twits tie shut. I plan on using brine this year for the first time and this seemed like a good space saving idea. Don't know if it works, but the theory is solid.
