    Brisket cooking time

    Glad you got if figured out.  Down here at sea level, I did a 16 pounder in 14 hours on Sunday.  It was 145 at 4 hours, 165 at 9 hours, and 191 at 14 hours.

    How to figure out fresh spices, when the recipe calls for dired spices

    Fresh herbs are less potent than dried herbs.  When you dry them out, it concentrates the flavors.  The problem is, I wouldn't begin to know how to tell you what the ratio might be.  I don't measure anything when I cook.  If I were going to try and wing it, I would probably multiply X1.5 for...

    Really? Am I Crazy?

    I don't know what you are talking about.  I just cooked until 1AM on a work night.  That seems perfectly normal to me.

    Boiling meat

    I call this the Chili's effect.  For some reason no matter how ribs taste, if the meat is disentigrating, the general public LOVES them.  This is a strange and disturbing phenomenon.

    My update on my "Beef" Pork Roast for sandwich meat

    If that were in the deli, they would be getting $11.99 a pound for it.  Looks awesome.

    Brisket for a bad reason (with Qview) - updated with money shots

    Thanks for all the kind responses guys.  And yea Terry, it's really weird how every smoker has it's own personality.  If I put that split directly on the fire, I would get smoke that looks like an apartment fire.  If i set it off to the side, it just sits there and happily gives off TBS.  I can...

    Brisket for a bad reason (with Qview) - updated with money shots

    My buddy Larry's dad passed away on Friday.  His wife called me up on Saturday and told me that they had a bunch of out of town folks to feed after the funeral and asked me if I would smoke a brisket for them.  Well, you don't turn down those kinds of requests, so I made plans to do it.  I...

    Dealing with the Pink Color in smoking and BBQ'ing

    Verify all your temps with a probe therm, and that's about it.  Tell your people that that color is a sign of properly smoked food and it's normal.  Drive the point home by eating 3 or 4 ribs while you are pointing this out. You are a better man than me, because i never would have put that meat...

    Spicy Pickled Eggs (With delicious Q-View)...

    Nice job on those eggs.  I could definitely handle a couple of those with a cold beer, and it's 8:11 in the morning...lol Also, I have one of those little grills that I keep around just for doing steaks.  The grill is like 4 inches off the fire and it cooks a hell of a steak or burger.  Not...
