    Best place to find good affordable meat ( online, Local ? )

    I I used to love Albertson's and shopped there exclusively when i was young and single. They have moved away from our area a long time ago ( Sad Face Here ) The food I smoked this week end came from Publix after talking with Two butchers at publix one older guy and a younger guy Who knows if...

    On a side note cleaning this grill because of the massive door is very easy. we only put in the grates we plan to use. My Wife cleans the grates and water pan every time and I wipe the inside down with paper towels. it takes about 1/4 to 1/2 half roll of paper towels to wipe down. Staying with...

    Thank you. It was a great burger and massive. but the inspiration came from this site. I would for some reason have never thought to smoke Hamburger, I can not wait till I find other things on this site that I never thought to smoke.

    Right now Publix has Bone in Ribeye for sale 9.99 a pound but I would bet if you bought one at my Publix it would be 11/2 thick at the bone and 1/2 to 3/4 thick at the end of the cut. making it impossible to cook evenly. Not to mention it one steak would be 11/2 to 2 pounds LOL The Thin cut...

    LOL Even on sale Ribeyes at any level choice prime etc have not been seen here at 5.99 a pound in a long time. Everything went up in price here since the multiple mass power outages and has never come back down in price. The one exception is fuel for cars. It seems companies seen what people...

    I have tried a few Cuban bakeries with lots of success when I can go in with an interpreter. going in alone as a white man that does not speak the language leaves me to point and say "uno por favor" meaning the ones I have tried either do not speak English or do not want to serve non Hispanic so...

    Best place to find good affordable meat ( online, Local ? )

    When I was still working they had a Western beef open up and they had great prices at first on some items to make it worthwhile to check them out. Oddly enough for a store to be called Western Beef you would think they would have great beef ( not so much ) at least not at the Boca location. I...

    That seems to be the issue, they butcher everything they have, like the pork belly I wanted I could only find pre cut into 1 inch strips or odd shape and size chunks with the skin still stuck on it. no slab of pork belly was available. No Full brisket with the point is available at the store or...

    Thanks for the idea but I had the pork going also which took like 4.5 hours The bacon and hamburgers were out of the smoker at two hours. ( should have put the bacon on my grill at 350 for a few minutes ) but I was starving from sucking in all the delicious fumes we ate some of the bacon as it...

    That is pretty much where we shop I just did not want to mention names since I have less than high opinion of them. We used to love Sams but they closed the store we frequented and now would have to travel further to continue with Sams. It seems that Publix thinks everyone is rich and wants a...

    Hi I found with the few test seasoning runs with charcoal and propane that with no modifications the majority heat would go up and out of the fire box and straight out of the chimney ( obvious poor design ). all the gauges except for the door gauge would read pretty close to each other ( with no...

    Best place to find good affordable meat ( online, Local ? )

    Hi guys it seems I have no good source for meats I want to buy all the good " Butcher shops" closed down. now we are just stuck with Chain grocery stores that seem to be out of their mind with their price per pound and the size cuts they have in the cooler for sale. To make it worse many of the...

    Hello from South Florida ( Palm Beach County )

    Thank you for the warm welcome, i am happy to say thanks to this site I enjoyed my first smoked hamburger today and it was out of this world good. I would never have thought to smoke a burger for some reason. How silly was I.

    Thanks for the tip jcan222 So far they are hanging in there. I plan on putting foil on the shelf under them before I pull them to hopefully catch anything that falls LOL. The burger came out amazing, nice smoke ring, the pork fat that dripped on them also gave us great flavor profiles. It was...

    It is raining like crazy with high howling winds and the smoker is going like a champ. So far I am pleased with the conversion. The smell is amazing coming off our pit I missed this sooo much. it has been years since we have been able to smoke meat.

    One hour in bacon flipped ( I fear our pork chunks are too small for the grates and in general for smoking they most likely will fall through during the smoke. At least they will be dripping on the burgers for some time. I bunched up the pork chunks to hopefully save some of them from falling...
