    First Smoke with GOSM - Baby Back Ribs

    I've been smoking with my GOSM for about 1 1/2 years.  I generally keep all vents closed as much as possible and I have no trouble with temperature control.  I cannot get down real low unless I put ice in the water pan which I do when I'm smoking salmon.  I do not have the needle valve installed...

    Recommendation for a BBQ joint in San Antonio

    Okay, here's the final Texas Q search report. Yesterday we went to Lockhart to try some to the famous BBQ there. We went by the Kruez Market, it's been smoking meats since 1900. However they moved to a new location in 1999 and it was a little too big and impersonal for us. We then went to...

    powdercoating or grill paint

    Don't know exactly what you're trying to finish but powder coating is cured at around 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), this is the temp the powder particles melt and flow out to a smooth surface finish.  I would think if what you're finishing see temps higher than 400F, you might have trouble...

    Salmon

    I usually get a salmon side from Costco, cut it into 2" wide filets, put the salmon into a reasealable bag with a handfull of brown sugar, some garlic and onion powder - I'm guessing about a table spoon each but I don't measure and it always seems to come out great.  Stick it into the fridge for...
