    Newbie's First Buckboard w/ Qview

    I found various sources recommending final temps of bacon ranging from 140* to 155*. I went to 150*. I do not have true cold smoking capabilities and really no control over heat with my rig, so only got just short of 4 hours (3 hours 50 minutes) of smoke before hitting 150*. I was concerned...

    Newbie's First Buckboard w/ Qview

    After the cure period I initially rinsed thoroughly and then sliced a couple slices off of each piece and fried them up. These test pieces were a little salty for my tastes, so tossed them in ice water with halved potato for 1 hour. Did another fry test with much better results. I did not...

    Newbie's First Buckboard w/ Qview

    Thanks, tastes much better than the pictures look. The easy answer would be for me to say TQ. I could not find TQ locally but have access to InstaCure#1 (or other similar named products such as pink salt, DQ Powder, Prague Powder #1 ) and followed recipe/formula from Charcuterie, by...

    BBQ Pitmasters Show

    Question from a newbie. Are these guys on the 'circuit' sponsored / have endorsement deals, or do they have to cash a check for gas and meat money? (Not just the few spot lighted on this show, but other teams also on the circuit.) Are whole hog competitions rare? That was awesome! BBQ...

    Pitmaster Show Q&a Thread

    How can the product be hot or even warm when a judge gets it? What is it with the field of parsley? A tradition of some sort? Is it a crap shoot which judge judges yours (I understand the judges have no idea whose BBQ they are eating)? If your ribs got delivered to one table of 6 judges and...

    Another ***** Rating For Customer Service Maverick W/Qview

    I purchased one of these based on positive feedback from here. What kind of range are you masters getting for a read out on your receiver? I get a reading and move inside and still have a reading, start playing mumble de pegs and return to receiver (in kitchen) for a look and have no reading...

    I am in Nashville and have the same rig. Thanksgiving morning when I smoked my first turkey temps did not get above 42* and my little friend rolled along at 230* (dedicated probe for internal temp). The only temp drops where when adding more wood chunks, and when I inserted probes into bird...
