    Opinions on Pellet grills

    I bought a GMG Daniel Boone in November during their Black Friday sales. I can’t say enough good things about it. I’ve done plenty of pork shoulders, ribs, wings, cookies, fish, steak, all have turned out fantastic. I haven’t had any issues with it the 6 months I’ve owned. I keep mine in my...

    Would love it! Been in the market for a thermometer as I’ve been using the one that came with my GMG Daniel Boone. Be nice to watch temps of everything I’m cooking at once. Here in the USA

    It’s on sale right now for lent. Usually we pay 9.99/lb on it, that’s why we tried this recipe out tonight. She enjoyed it and wants it again. I’ll make me a nice steak or something instead haha

    Trying out salmon

    Overall it was okay. This is first time I’ve ever had salmon. It had too much of a fish taste to it for me. I love cod and bass and catfish and snapper, but this was just too much for my liking. The flavoring from the molasses glaze was delicious and so was the seasoning on top of that, but the...

    Where to buy pork belly?

    That’s pretty good! I didn’t know they had anything like that. Like I said we had a sams membership but let it go but are looking into getting either Costco or sams again. I’ll have to look into that!

    Where to buy pork belly?

    They were good, I’d do them again. I plan to do a brisket soon. My wife has been trying to get me to do one since I got my pellet grill. I plan to to steaks soon as well and do the reverse sear method. I’ve heard great results.

    Where to buy pork belly?

    Yeah that’s why we haven’t been in a rush to get another membership yet. But regular household items and other foods we like to stock up on. I’m not sure if we ever save anything in the end, it’s the thought though right? A vacuum sealer is in my near future.

    I also have yet to ever smoke anything beef (the horror!) except Dino bones once that I got with a quarter of beef.

    Where to buy pork belly?

    My wife mentioned they let you walk around before you decide so that will be nice. I get most of my meat from Dillons (Kroger) or my local butcher. Mostly because it’s just my wife and I and 1 year old son, so I don’t need huge amounts of meat...yet. I was buying when stuff would go on sale for...

    Where to buy pork belly?

    Ha. Do we need to overnight a couple to you? My local butcher I use a lot is 3.79/lb average 10-12lb. Another local butcher that I’ve never used but is most known about 30 min-1 hr away is 5.99/lb 10-12lb average. I couldn’t imagine 10/lb

    Where to buy pork belly?

    I need to get either sams or Costco. We had a sams for a while but with it just being my wife and I we never used it. Now that we have a son and go through a lot of items that we can get at one of those places we need to get one. Just don’t know which one to get. Both are same distance away...

    Where to buy pork belly?

    I’ll keep this in mind. My local butcher said they always have them available, but I understand on a busy weekend like Super Bowl that things are probably going to be in higher demand. There is a Whole Foods 30 minutes from me, never been there but I’ll keep it in mind

    Where to buy pork belly?

    Okay that makes sense. I’ll probably use the kc masterpiece since it has a little spice in it. I’d like a nice spice-sweet mix. I’ll be making these Saturday, and maybe again Sunday if they turn out good!

    Where to buy pork belly?

    His is the one I plan on following. I think that glaze sounds delicious. I tend to follow recipes to a T at first. Then try the end result and make a note to change this or that next time. I’ve never been good at tasting sauces or seasonings and been able to change, I have to wait until...

    Where to buy pork belly?

    This is the one I have been wanting to do! Do you have the measurements? Also does the bbq sauce type matter? I’ll jusr be using a store bought one. I have kc masterpiece original and some kraft hickory at home but I don’t know if those will work or what do you suggest. That huckleberry glaze...
