I'm not making it today, but wanted to get the thread started with some pics for you folks of what I've got going and if you can think of something I should use instead or along-with. :D
Here's some of the ingredients:
Briquettes:
Roomie is currently out getting the meat.
It's a Weber kettle. 22".
Are there any items WRT the grilling I might want to get? A Slow N Sear would be nice, but I can't get one here in time for this weekend. Home Depot in Casper says they're out of the baskets, but I do have a chimney.
That's what I tried once and it didn't work. lol Couldn't get the successive coals to light off the previous ones. Even put those straw fire-starters at equal intervals to try and help with that.
I've done it for shorter term meats, like reverse searing a steak but not as successful as I'd like on longer term things like ribs. Keeping the temp in the right area is difficult, and the briquettes going.
Going to try some pulled pork this weekend - maybe use that Lillie Q's Hot Smoky BBQ sauce.
Never done pulled pork - what cut of pork do you use for pulled pork? Got any recipes you'd like to share? We have a crock pot that we're going to use.
Appreciate any input - I'll make sure to post...
I'd never heard of Safeway until I moved out west either. LOL
Get west of the Mississippi and lots of things change. For instance, no Speedways out west. That sucked as my VA back in Marietta gave me $150 in gas cards to help get me out to Wyoming for my job, but I only used maybe $50 of it...

Woke up to this and figured it was a good day for some sloppy joes. :D
Doing a few things differently this time, we'll see how it works out.
Fried up the bacon, removed it and then added in 4 jalapenos, 1 poblano, and half a yellow onion...
I'll try that with the veggies next time - I've just pulled them out while the meat and sauce reduces then add it in as the reducing enters it's final stages.
You are correct, not smoking anything. I do have some smoked paprika in the cupboard, but this was the first time making it, so I...
Just to throw more fuel on the fire... :D
Every definition I've read says Texas chili has no beans or tomatoes. More like a spicy beef stew than a chili.
Actually, I'm from Ohio. :D. Near Marietta.
I moved here in June for a job with the Forest Service.
The recipe is one I found online- I hate mustard, so that is one ingredient I always avoid. Not a big fan of Worchestershire sauce either, and sauces heavy on vinegar are not my favorite either.
One of my favorite recipes!
The recipe has you making some sort of BBQ-like sauce and a beer, neither of which I liked.
First time I made it, used the Weber green bottle bbq sauce (very good). Second time was some Stubbs red. Third, and favorite so far, was Lillie Q's Smoky Hot. Fourth...
From what I've read, using the black beans is a no-no for a Texas Chili. LOL
I like the idea of the brisket point, bit don't really have the means to smoke one currently (unless you can do it in an oven or something).
Few things I'd change from last time was putting the sautéed veggies and...
Not anytime soon, unfortunately. With COVID, travel to OH is a bit difficult. Hoping sometime in February now, was wanting to go there in mid-late Jan.
