    I made some amazing St. Louis ribs yesterday

    I have noticed the ambient humidity makes a difference also especially if opening and closing the lid more than absolutely needed.

    Reheating pulled pork for a party

    Late here, but I have found chicken broth works well to keep PB moist while reheating. Hope everyone has a great game day.

    Concrete Protection from Grease and Rust

    Depends on what you want for a visual, the above are good ideas. I have an aircraft hangar I applied the below product to and yes every tire track that was on the floor from the steel erection petibone before applying is still there, (I should have pressure washed) but no new ones that wont...

    St Louis ribs...need help

    Another revived thread, but might help someone new here with questions or deciding what to do. I have a very slow airflow electric smoker. I just salt and pepper at 225' set it and forget it for 5-6 hours. Then take a look and see how pulled back from the bone they are and how flexy they are...

    Pinto Beans and Ham

    Looks great, I do something similar in my crock pot. With a ham, usually spiral cut, labeled "fully cooked ham", I put it in for two to three more hours in my smoker to get it to what my taste buds consider "done" with a little smoke. I cheat and intentionally do not clean it down too close...

    Pork butt overnight on Pit Boss 820 XL - only 153 deg after 10 hours at 200 F. Should I be concerned that it was <140F for hours?

    I do mine a little different, have a Smoke-it electric that has little temp swings like an oven that don't bother me, but I set it to average about 225 real rack temp and I set it and forget it until close to being done. Yes I worked with PID controls many years, we are not melting plastic to...

    Anyone Know About Ham Radios??

    Iffen you have a fear of plugging it in. Set it out on your driveway tuned to a local AM radio channel with the volume turned up with an extension cord. Plug the extension cord in away from it and listen for a pop, or local commercials. Ha Many of those radios are still functioning as built...

    Anyone Know About Ham Radios??

    Ham Radio, also known as Amateur Radio is a Unique hobby, been doing it 35 years or so. If we can find 12VDC we can do what we do and talk with others locally or around the world. No cell phones, no internet, just spewing electrons off our antennas to other antennas locally or around the...

    Knife Set $12.99

    Aw man, I was going to pick up another set I have been happy with for the lake house but it is for Prime members only at that price. Darn. Thanks for posting

    Anyone Know About Ham Radios??

    Nifty, and yes the capacitors could be dried out and will make a pop when shorted and be a little smelly, but not something that is big explosion or a ball of fire or anything like that. I would take it out to the garage or patio and plug it in to give it a try. If everything seems normal and...

    Temp probe cleaning tip.

    I also use a Scotch Bright scrubby and Dawn on the probes, but I hold the probe just below the wire/probe junction and never let it get wet from scrubbing or rinsing. I like many others have destroyed probes by letting them get wet where the wire goes in. It is such a common problem, I have...

    Brisket travel and timing dilema

    I have done this several times when expecting to feed a large crowd a few days later. Similar here as "Fueling Around" suggested, but I use a crock pot because I knew their oven was going to be busy with other foods getting ready for the feast. I smoke mine early and slice and store in a...

    Smoked balogna

    I do mine a little different. I slice the chub into about 3/8 inch thick round slices and coat with BBQ sauce on a baking sheet. Then I put each slice on a pretty hot smokey grill surface and cook/smoke till they are almost singed and flip over to finish off the other side. To me it is a lot...

    Bacon Up

    I saw it and did some research on the BaconUp product a few years back. Seems they are connected with producers of restaurant packaged already fried bacon who have a lot of leftover grease and I was told the BaconUp people collect it and use a three stage filter process to clean it up to...

    Bloody Mary time!

    Visiting a spiffy breakfast joint in Indiana I flew to 500 miles away from home for another reason, had a pretty good BM that had 3 strips of crispy fried bacon and two celery stalks sticking up out of the glass to grab as tall as the straw. Not the best BM mix for my taste buds, but I got it...

    KANSAS CITY CHIEFS

    Not a big FB fan here, but it was a game worth watching. Just a few errors here and there decided the hard fought by both sides game. I like those kind.

    Bloody Mary time!

    For just a quickie BM with breakfast, I use the spicy V-8, couple drops of Worcestershire, couple drops of "Real lemon," couple grinds of black pepper, and a splash of vodka.

    Spares at 9 *f

    I did a couple racks of ribs last week in my smok-it 2. Put them in late afternoon for smoke, but as the temp got down to about 10, pulled them out and finished them off in the oven. Still great. I second that if the wind is not over about 5mph, my hot tub is great down to zero or so as long...

    Amish Mustard Eggs ...My Mom said to share this with you guys...

    Yep, did them years back, life turned me upside down, forgot about them and other things. Really glad it has gotten revived multiple times since 2010. Like other posts here, good stuff revived and thrown in our face to try again. Remember, like that guy long ago that first posted singing a...
