    Simple is the best sometimes.

    Every year or so my wife and I try to rent a cabin for a couple days in neighboring Ohio. We like a couple days with no kids and some time to decompress. With our baby daughter's impending debut a month or so away, we figured this was our last chance for a while. We always make it a point to...

    First try at burnt ends, with a question.

    Finally got around to doing a brisket on my new offset smoker. For all intents and purposes that went over quite well. My real reason for doing this one is that I've always wanted to try making burnt ends, and finally had an excuse to do so (all it really took was my wife saying "I've never...

    1st Fatty

    Well, I finally got around to making my first fatty. I went with a cheeseburger style in hopes that the kids would dig in. I'll admit, my bacon-weaving skills aren't the best, but that part turned out better than my last attempt (an ill-fated bacon-bowl that never even got off the launchpad)...

    Favorite Leftover BBQ Recipes

    Not sure if this is the proper place, so Admins, feel free to move this elsewhere as you see fit. Did a quick search and didn't see much on the topic. What's everyone's favorite re-use of leftover BBQ? Having 4 kids to feed and not being anywhere near wealthy I hate throwing away leftover BBQ...

    Memorial Day Ribs

    I had my offset smoker and two grills going, but for here I'll stick to the ribs. (pun somewhat intended) Mixed up my favorite dry rub right after I salted and wrapped the ribs the night before. Beginning; about 3hrs in while wrapping with butter, honey, and brown sugar (thanks @bj77!)...

    Engine No. 9 and a tri-tip

    Although last weeks inaugural smoke with my new-and-modified OK Joe Highland wasn't amazing, a little education has me set straight this time around. I left the smokestack vent wide open the whole time. Once I added the lit coals to the firebox I left the firebox side door wide open. Once the...

    Yet another OK Joe Highland

    Howdy folks. Sorry I haven't participated in a while. Had a lot of real life going on, both really great, and really awful. Have to keep moving though. Glad to be getting back to one of my favorite forums though. I just picked up an Oklahoma Joe Highland smoker yesterday, and hopes are to break...

    Fresh ham quandry

    OK gang, so the other day upon stopping at my parents house, my Dad handed me a fresh ham (bone-in, skin-on) and said, "Here's you a challenge." Challenge accepted. The only thing is, after reading, thinking, pacing, and so on, I'm not sure exactly what to do. I got an electric box smoker for...

    Optimus Prime Rib

    Optimus Prime Rib is a Christmas tradition I've started. I've come from a deep Italian family, married into an Irish family that has it's traditions deep rooted in their Southern Baptist traditions. I've learned from my own life that these large family gatherings only last a generation or so...

    Greeting from the bottom of the barrel.

    Howdy folks. My name's Ricc, and I'm from Nitro, WV. I'm a computer geek by day, and a musician at night, but I'm always a happily married father of 4. I've been BBQ'n seriously for about 10 years now. Usually it's for friends and family, but occasionally I get asked to for parties, wedding...
