    Grilled Portabella's

    These aren't very hard to make, but I experimented with them one night when we were having hamburgers and we had no fries. Take sliced portabella caps and brush olive oil on both sides. Sprinkle with either garlic salt and black pepper......or just garlic pepper if you can find it. I have only...

    I think I have something like the swine flu!

    Dangit....work is getting in the way. I have eaten bbq every night after work and I've run out. I think I'll cook one this weekend just to get my fix. I'm addicted to smoking, at least its the legal kind.

    I think I have something like the swine flu!

    Ok not really but since my first successful smoke of boston butt the other day, I have thought of little else cept smoking another one. Does anyone else have this problem? I have 3 more boston butts in the freezer and they are taunting me constantly.

    multiple butts and warming technique

    I finished smoking 2 butts friday and didn't eat till saturday. I opted to to this so I wouldn't have to get up at 2 in the morning and take a chance of not having food ready when the people got here. I popped them back in a roaster oven at 275 for about 2 hours before my guests got here. It...

    1st time a failure, going for a 2nd attempt

    Everyone is gone now and they told me that it was really good. I messed up on the recipe for jeff's sauce, so I went with the old standby of "Neely's BBQ sauce" that I got off of the food network website. I've made it several times and always turned out good. It was a good compliment for the...

    1st time a failure, going for a 2nd attempt

    My wife was boiling water for tater salad and I held it in there and it was around 215 when it was at a low boil. stuck it in some water out of the fridge and it bottomed out at a tad under 50. The boston butt was about the same temp when I stuck the wireless digital thermo in it on the smoker.

    1st time a failure, going for a 2nd attempt

    My temp was staying on the low side(cheap thermo won't tell me exact, just that its ideal) I was looking around and decided i needed a charcoal starter to use the minion method(i think). I went to wally world and bought one for 9.97 and I decided after using it that I would have paid a lot...
