    Smoked Tri Tip

    Excellent looking meal. That ceramic dish certainly did it's job.  I'm just guessing, but do they heat up like heat stones, but with sides to catch the drippings?  Were the drippings salvageable to make a gravy or au jus?  Most of all I'm eyeballing that you set your tray on the lowest shelf...

    Au jus or not, I sure wish that was my dinner plate tonight.  Nice job.  It looks beautiful.

    smoked chuckie and potatoes for dinner final shots

    I apologize for my unkind remarks to your craft Rick.  I've never been a good wordsmith in disagreeing situations and getting my thoughts down without appearing judgmental is often impossible.  Please accept my apology. I'm an opinionated old bbq buff who has put mayo on his fries for the last...

    Skoking corned beef question

    Good for you.  I had the same concerns as Alelover when I read your message.  Was afraid you would be in for a surprise if you were looking for traditional corned beef.  I figure the mark downs will start tomorrow and plan to pick up three more just to have.  One will become pastromi by next...

    What's the BEST Brisket Rub?

    The best rub I've found is the one I made the time before.  It's not an easy call.  I love a bit of heat in my rub, so that it bites me back a bit.  I also like the crispy bark, so I add a great deal of white and light brown sugar. But here you go.  The best rubs for brisket . . . ...

    Lowes Dual-door Master Forge Smoker to natural gas

    Kitbashing is a great thing when you have the skills to do it, but I wouldn't recommend this modification for inside a restaurant.  Too many things that can go wrong and the worst is a fire your guests won't be able to write home about. Restaurants have their own rules and they are for the...

    Brisket and Burnt Ends from Yesterday

    You totally nailed it.  Nice job.  The perfect slicing of the brisket tells the tale even better than you described it.  If there is room for improvement, I don't see it. Bravo.  We should have a ribbon for this guy..

    this one's for you red mud!

    What's not to love about skirt steak?  Lots of flavor and when thinly sliced it puts other cuts to shame. I've never tried skirt steak in the smoker but certainly will one of these days.  You held back on the sauce, which I'm a big fan of holding back on.  Better to use it as dipping sauce in...

    smoked chuckie and potatoes for dinner final shots

    Sauces are the good enough of bad barbeque.   Grrrrrrr.  You've struck a nerve. Sauces are the good enough of bad barbeque You've come to the right place though.  You can learn here. Take that same cut of chuck and make a fat chuckie out of it.  It will slice and taste like the best prime rib...

    Beef Ribs . . . rare to find at my store. I had to try them.

    Looking forward to it Harley.  My family says, do it again, and so I will.  I still haven't learned how to cook yet.  That involves stoves and pans and things that burn.  Not sure I want to get into that kind of grub fixing.

    Beef Ribs . . . rare to find at my store. I had to try them.

    To tell the truth, my method was probably as close to a 3-2-1 as it was a 2-2-1.  Once I put the meat in I didn't start the clock until the smoker got back to temperature.

    Beef Ribs . . . rare to find at my store. I had to try them.

    I'm glad it's finally posted.  Not sure what was holding me back.  Probably the reboot I did at the end. Anyway, here's the money shot.  enjoy, drool, the meal was excellent and I got to try out my new slicer for the salads.
