    Competition Thighs - 2nd Place

    Our local neighborhood had a BBQ competition this past weekend, and our team took 5th overall out of 38 teams. We had entries from Chicken (2nd), Brisket (4th), and Ribs (26th). It was a great time to hang out, play cornhole, and jam out in the Texas sun. Friday's Cornhole Tournament...

    Shirley's Biscuits

    @jcam222 Where at in NE Ohio? I grew up in Erie, PA just over the boarder from you. It's been a while since I've see the snowy NE, and sometimes I downright miss it.

    Shirley's Biscuits

    Back Story Last year a bunch of neighborhood dads jumped on the opportunity to compete in the local BBQ Competition. We took 3rd overall out of 39 teams, and took first place in chicken. Sever smokers were utilized independently: chicken was smoked on a Gateway Drum, brisket on a Kamado Joe...

    Shirley - Chicken Thighs

    The ChudBox isn't cheap! I just looked the other day and they are in excess of a few thousand dollars depending on models.

    Shirley - Chicken Thighs

    I decided it was time to try a direct cook in the warmer box and what better than chicken thighs? Process: Loaded a charcoal chimney with Kingsford Briquettes. Once lit, I distributed them in the seal welded ash pan. This was the first time I've used Kingsford. I typically use lump charcoal...

    42" x 24" Elevated Straight Back - Shirley Fabrication

    I have an seal welded ash pan to catch the drippings and an elevated charcoal grate for the warmer! I was thinking competition chicken in the warmer with direct heat at 300-350F while the brisket, ribs, and butts are cruising along at 250F. Great minds think alike..! - Skip

    Shirley, you want some ribs...?

    Starting my fire and coming up to temp prior to tossing on the baby backs. Nice pull, subtle smoke ring, and a clean bite. What else could you ask for? Process: Smoked at 250F with minor temperature swings between 225-275 F. Utilized a combination of Post Oak and Hickory wood, which...

    42" x 24" Elevated Straight Back - Shirley Fabrication

    It is not a "standard", and definitely overkill, but I found them to be useful and still looks good - IMO. I found the chamber runs hotter closer to the firebox, which surprised me at first. With the reverse flow baffle plate, I would have thought the hotter side would be near the collection...

    42" x 24" Elevated Straight Back - Shirley Fabrication

    Received my 42" x 24" Elevated Straight back with Rotated Warmer from Tyler Shirley this week. Kevin at Legendary Transport did a great job getting it home safely and kept in contact throughout the process. The pairing of Shirley / Legendary Transport has proven to be exceptional service. My...

    New MES 145S

    Smoker junkie here... Bought a new smoker at Sam’s knowing I’d eventually upgrade the controller with a PID. That being said I’m impressed with the controller accuracy so far. Flame boss I use for the BGE and MES are close enough for g00berment work! Happy smoking from Pennsylvania!
