    Yea, I'm thinking kosher is the best. Dave, I wonder about weight when following a recipe with kosher, though. Not that I'm big on following recipes, but they can be jump points... So in thinking of weight and a typical recipe, I assume that the weights given may refer to table-type salt and...

    What kind of salt do you use?

    So I'm outta salt and I've got a beautiful butt that needs to be prepped in the fridge. I've been working on my own rubs and just wanted other opinions on the best salt for rubs.

    Anyone turn Butt Fat Cap to Chiccarons?

    Trimmed the fat cap off my butt as one whole piece; anyone make Chiccaron's outta the fat cap? I'd like to, but I figured I'd ask before I smoked up the house while smoking up the back yard.

    WANTED - BBQ sauce recipe with fresh tomotoes

    There are tons of recipes for making "ketchup" from fresh tomatoes which apparently most use as a base for making BBQ sauce - my next venture now that I've gotten down a good base rub. I was really surprised to find out how many use ketchup as a base and then start adding the same exact...
