    Guess the weight and win.

    I can't imagine anyone eating a nasty carp. They're suckers, bottom feeders.

    Scalloped potatoes

    Aren't you guys worried about the drippings not coming fully up to temperature and possibly poisening the dish? I know when you stuff a bird with dressing you have to be carefull of this... Say I'm doing a chicken on the top and have some scallops on the bottom, should I not be worried about...

    Scalloped potatoes

    Easy Scalloped Potatoes I do not have exact measurements, use your best judgement. These are the best scallops I've ever had. I made them from scratch without ever having a recipe. The smoking method sounds very interesting although I've never tried this so I'm not sure how they would turn...

    Pigs Pig Barrel is Born

    What does the valve at the bottom do? How do you control the temp? With the amount of wood/charcoal you add?

    Brinkmann ECB Temp too hot

    Trial and error, no better way... No thermometer for ribs? Why's that? Chipbox? My smoker didn't come with a chipbox. Is this something I should purchase? I'm assuming it's used to hold the soaked wood chips?

    Another brining question.... spicy brine?

    There's a fried chicken joint here in Cincinnati that has THE best Spicy Fried Chicken. The spice is NOT in the batter, its infused in the chicken. I'm thinking this is done by brining the chicken in a spicy water? Am I right? If so, I'd love to know if anyone here has a spicy brine recipe.

    Brinkmann ECB Temp too hot

    WD, You seem to have plenty of experience with the ECB and have already made several mods, so I'd like to pick your brain. I have a Gourmet ECB that I have added a 13" weber grate to the bottom of the firepan which is supported by bolts. This grate holds the burning charcoal/wood and allows...

    Triming spares

    Just did a quick search and seen someone mention a video that Ritchie posted that shows how to prepare spares st. louis style. Does anyone have a link for this vid? **edit** dang, thanks for the quick replies... I should've refreshed before I made a second post.

    Triming spares

    I noticed that most of you prepare your spareribs by triming off certain parts. I think this is called "St. Louis" and "Kansas City" style. I've never done this before, before I bought a smoker I would just cook the whole slab in the oven. Actually I've always done baby backs, but reading here I...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    Wray is my middle name. The middle name "ray" is a tradition for males on my fathers side of the family. Supposedly my great grandfather said the "W" makes your name look more sophisticated (Ex. George W. Bush) so the name "ray" changed to "Wray" sometime in the mid 1900's. Usually, the first...

    Its a great city. I was down there last night for the Reds game. And yes, we did have skyline coneys! One of the biggest mistakes the Reds made was building the ballpark on the river. We could've been even closer to "little chicago" when the building plans were in effect for Great American...

    Meat prices_Where to buy?

    I'm new to smoking so I'm digging for as much info as possible. What I'd like to know is where most of you purchase your meats (bbacks, spares, butts, chickens, briskets, ect.). Do you purchase the meat in bulk or 1 ea? Are you buying from the local grocery or butchers? Last, What is the going...

    LOL. Skyline's okay, but your missing out if you haven't tried Goldstar. Goldstar blows Skyline out of the water IMHO... Skyline is the staple of Cincinnati but Goldstar is starting to the give them a run for their money. Skyline's at the Great American Ballpark (Reds) and Goldstar is at Paul...

    Well the smoke went pretty good for my first try. I need to make a modification to the ECB before attemping my next smoke. The temp gauge "Warm, Ideal, Hot" has to be replaced ASAP. I couldn't stand not seeing the actual temperature. As far as the meat goes, I'm really not sure what I did...

    I'm right by the fairgrounds in Hamilton off Rt. 4. Minutes from you. Jim Dandy's is exactly what I'm talking about. I've only been a couple of times, but man it was good (at least it was for me). Maybe I don't know much better and its horrible, that's how much I like Q, lol. Montgomery Inn is...

    Great, thnx for the tips. I have a loin, so I thought I'd give it a try. Maybe I'll buy a butt and slice some chops out of the loin. Its not Burbanks, but its very close by. Its on Sharon. Get off 75 north and go right off the exit. Its about two blocks up on the right. You can't miss the...

    Oh, so you must be somewhere around Sharonville then? One of my favorite BBQ pit restaurants is right on Sharon Rd, very close to the 75 exit ramp. Don't know the name, but they have excellent BBQ and somtimes live music at night. Do you like Mongomery Inn's sauce or do you make your own? I'm...
