    My new-to-me smoker.

    This rig is from my favorite BBQ joint, Porky's Blazin BBQ. It was the smoker they started their restaurant with. Can't wait to test it out. If all goes well I'll use it in a contest in May.

    Amatuer Competition

    It appears you all have an appetite for photos.  I consider this cruel and unusual punishment but you asked for it.  I appologize in advance because I was rushed to the judging table and didn't get photos of the brisket.  Rest assured they would have been equally awesome.  I cut pencil thin...

    Low and Slow?? (La Caja China)??

    Question to Perry or any other La Caja China owners. Have you every tried to regulate the cooking temp of the La Caja China by reducing the charcoal? I am toying with the idea of slow cooking a couple briskets. I thought about only using half the charcoal and keeping it on one side of the box...

    How to smoke briskets in La Caja China

    I just ordered one. I'll be firing it up as soon as it arrives.  Might go with ribs first and then move to brisket.  So many choices.

    Our buddy, Todd Johnson continues to A-MAZE!

    Just ordered mine tonight.  Got the package deal that comes with hickory, oak, cherry, maple along with some extra apple, alder, pecan and a pitmaster blend.  Looking forward to trying it out.

    New from Missouri

    Ok, I currently reside near Whiteman Air Force base. It is about 45 min east of KC and 3 hours west of St Louis. The BBQ place that I've fallen in love with is Porkeys Blazin BBQ. Been 3 times in the last month. Cash or check only so be prepared.
