    Smoker Cover Issue

    Grill/smoker covers are disposable. I'll spend less than $50 for a good, universal cover. If it only lasts 3-5 years, I have no problem with that. As long as it does it's job, I'm happy.

    What are you watching ?

    Started watching Bupkis this week. Never have seen any of Pete Davidson's stuff so didn't know what to expect. Good show. Lots of stars and cameos.

    Who Makes Their Own Seasonings (Rubs)

    I make my own rubs and sauces (from recipes). I have a good collection of spices so I usually always have the ingredients. I save most of my empty spice and condiment jars for this. More funner than spending a dollar an ounce for premade stuff.

    Vacuum sealer questions - UPDATE, bought the...

    Well they didn't lie. Their customer service rep told me that a lot of bags aren't compatible. NESCO and Food Saver bags are two that she mentioned. Interesting conversation on the sealing/cutting of bags. The NESCO has the bar cutter. I always pull the bag to my disired length, cut it...

    Vacuum sealer questions - UPDATE, bought the...

    I have a NESCO but not that model. And no, it's not a foot tall, just about 4-6 inches, with the top down but not latched (how it should be stored). Mine has a regular and gentle suck mode. Gentle is for watery stuff, it's a suck with less pressure. Only issue with it is that it is picky...

    Gumbo Question - Re Roux & Possible Blasphemy

    OK, so don't kick me out but I've been making gumbo, from scratch, for years. I never use a roux and it turns out pretty damn good. Just doesn't have that darkness a roux gives. I cook it long enough, 6-10 hours, that the okra thickens it up. But I do see your dilema Abigail. Good luck...

    Vintage gas Weber

    I had that same grill 25 years ago. Funny story. Bought it at Lowes. Boxed up it wouldn't fit in the car so the sales person unboxed, in the store, put everything in our cart and walked us to the register to pay. It wasn't until we got to the car to unload it that I realized I had a grill...

    Misunderstandings

    ok, so that explains why when real bbq joints have them it's for a limited time. Glad I wasn't too far off. Thanks for the education.

    What are you listening to ?

    I'm flashing back to the late 70s/early 80s with some good old funk. Gap Band, Dazz Band, Cameo, Isley Brothers, The Bar-Kays.... V103 Atlanta.

    Pork Belly ~ The Best Bite This Week ✔️

    Wow that looks great. I always thought pork belly was mostly fat. Wrong again. This might have to be my next smoke, after this weekends turkey breast.

    Misunderstandings

    So, I've only been into smoking for about a year now but have always loved bbq. I've had burnt ends only a couple of times. Until this week, when I watched a video on how to make them, I thought they were just the actual ends of the brisket that got "burnt" because they were on the ends and...

    Different Kitchen Knife

    NOPE, NOPE, NOPE. Don't need another knife. Looks nice. Do you use the finger hole ? Not sure if I would or not. Use it safely.

    FYI

    So Saturday I decided to smoke a couple chicken breasts and some salmon. Last week when I cleaned the smoker there was some sludge (meat juices and ash I presume) in the bottom of the barrel. Got it all cleaned up and decided to lay down a sheet of foil on the bottom for easier clean up next...
