    Steel barrel ?

    I got mine at a metal recycling shop, they had a shit-ton of food grade drums.  I guess it all depends if you live in the CITY or in the STICKS! buena suerte!!

    Help!

    I believe if it isn't shiny metal on the inside then it has a liner. It's a good pic but kinda hard to tell from my vantage point. Also, what is a metallic blast? is that paint or some kinda of removal technique like sand blasting?

    What about this idea for spraying without lifting the lid?

    Cromag, I think Al may have a point in using a heat diffuser, I use a 14" Terra cotta (clay) saucer. I took the idea of a water or sand pan and just went with the foiled lined clay saucer (I stayed away from a pan with water because of the creosote possibility. It seems to help when I have to...

    Chicken brine on pork butt? - now with q-view

    i think your brine would work just fine, however I can't figure the olive oil. Regardless, I say go for it! I use a molasses brine for 24 hours and then use a no salt, no brown sugar rub. This combination has proven results. It tastes incredible. Now this is just my opinion, but try using a...
