    "New" Publix Lump

    I have found, at least here, that the Publix RO tends to be a little more consistent in size and shape, than the Walmart RO, but there's no denying $.60/lb for lump, so I use it quite often.

    Prime Rib (Tied with best one I ever ate)

    I know, and it's ok.  The PR looks fantastic, no matter the grade.

    Prime Rib (Tied with best one I ever ate)

    Agreed. I'm still eating USDA Prime NYS for ~$5 a meal as well. I've been paying right around $10/lb for Prime ribeyes or Prime strips. And I've adjusted to better quality meat, so I'd rather have a smaller portion (8oz portions) of better meat, more often, than having a large Choice steak once...

    "New" Publix Lump

    Has anyone used the newer Publix lump? I know it used to be made by RO, but not any more. At least I've never seen any RO lump like this. I don't know if it's been discussed or not, as I had to step away, temporarily, from the website.  Anyways, the Publix lump I am getting now, is extremely...

    Baby Back ribs on sale at Target

    They were sold out, here. Picked up a few "raincheck's" and will buy them when they have more available.  On the receipt though, it said, "$2.29 each", and I'm going to give them a call and ask if it's $2.29 per package or $2.29/lb. If it's $2.29 a package, I think we might buy like a 6-pack of...

    Pecan wood and butts?

    Pecan is one of my most versatile woods I use.  I use Pecan or Apple almost exclusively, and have tried my share of woods as well.  Can't go wrong with Pecan buddy!

    Ham Mac N Cheese

    Fair enough.  Thanks for sharing!

    Ham Mac N Cheese

    Do you have a recipe or anything I can use? I'd sure like to try this once or twice.

    No Roll Ribeye

    Not a bad price - well done. We pay about $7 and change for USDA Prime. I would just cut it to your desired thickness. Make a couple roasts, a couple of thick RE, and then trim to your specs. At least that's how I did it.  Good luck - and again - nice score. :)

    Question: Lump Coal

    I toss my chips. Can't burn them (burn time is only minutes, since they're so small). Dust? Just don't inhale it.  The only thing I use from a bag of lump is the charcoal. Dust/chips are left in the bag and tossed.

    Best Charcoal Smoker under $500.00???

    It's very much worthwhile to hunt down a Bubba Keg. They're on clearance for $299 @ Home Depot. BK will hold heat and smoke better than a WSM, and is far more fuel efficient. That's not to knock the WSM, as it's an excellent smoker. But given the two prices, the BK is a no brainer. If the BK was...

    Kingsford blue bag vs kingsford competition

    Me - the smell while the BB coals are ashing over. Once they are ashed over, I can't smell anything. Prior to that - I can. I have 2 bags for emergencies (FL hurricanes - we loose power quite often). Last year you couldn't even buy gas because there wasn't power to turn the pumps on. But I won't...

    Kingsford blue bag vs kingsford competition

    I'd use competition for the mere sake it's more "natural" than blue bag. Or Stubbs - if I am using briquettes for whatever reason.  "Kingsford charcoal is manufactured from wood charcoal, anthracite coal, mineral charcoal, starch, sodium nitrate, limestone, sawdust and borax."

    Rib Roast

    Just my opinion -  "estimate" 30 minutes per pound. I don't cook by time - I cook by temp.  the lower the better, if smoking. 225 if you can. Pull with IT of 130-140. It will be red/pink, but a roast is much different than 130 in a ribeye steak.  S&P are excellent. No need to rub anything...

    Bubba Keg/Big Steel Keg question

    How much lump are you using?

    Bubba Keg/Big Steel Keg question

    That's what I do...  Same vents and all. Maybe, you are closing down too soon, and smothering the young fire. From the time you light the cubes, to the time you start closing down the vents, how long is it typically taking you?

    Bubba Keg/Big Steel Keg question

    I see your having trouble. Why aren't you able to keep it lit for more than 3 or 4 hours? Can you take a picture of your bottom/top vents when you are smoking? Are you using charcoal? How are you lighting?

    New Bubba Keg Owner

    Absolutely. Don't do anything different. Add some quality lump, light in one spot, and ta-da! Many users report going 30 hours on 6lbs of charcoal.
