    Grill Cleaning

    I have one of those long spray wands that look similar to a power washer with the soap container attachment for washing my car that I was thinking about using on my barrel grill with side firebox and I could use some Dawn dish soap instead of car wash soap in the soap dish that screws onto the...

    Safe temps reminder.

    All my meats that I pan fry or smoke/grill must be 165 or higher. Even when ordering any kind of meat I always respond well-done when they ask how I want it cooked. I dont like bloody meat it's a turn off for me.

    Smoking trout-wood to use?

    The stores like Home Depot(I get my wood from here) dont carry alder wood. What are some suggestions to find this? Is it a light or heavy smoke(like mesquite)?

    Smoking trout-wood to use?

    Okay sounds good thanx. I have a spray bottle that I use instead of a mop during my smokes. I recently smoked pork chops and used a melted butter and apple juice to keep the meat from drying out during my smoke and even used apple juice instead of water in my water pan. I could use a half and...
