    Help Visit to Las Vegas

    By far the best BBQ I've found in Vegas is Buzz BBQ (95 & Craig Rd).  It's run by two guys, one from Oklahoma and one from Jamaica.  They are really friendly and their food is great.

    New to the ECB, need help/advice!!!

    Turns out the people I we stayed with had an awesome "Texas Best" horizontal smoker with SFB that I used for the 3 brisket, but I did use the ECB for some smoked sausages and ABTs and fatties the day of the party.  Unfortunately I didn't take photos since I was running around for 2 days straight...

    Dang work pitch-in

    I think it is a great compliment that someone requests something that you have made.  I have friends at work that I share all my Q with when I bring it in and they always tell me that they would pay me for my fatties.  I usually tell them when I'm going to be smoking and then just throw some...

    New to the ECB, need help/advice!!!

    My wife always raves to her parents about my Q and now her mom is retiring and throwing a party and wants me to "cater" it.  The problem is they live in TX and don't have a smoker.  I tried to talk my father in law into building a UDS but he went to the store and picked up a Brinkman before I...

    Tenderquick Substitute

    Thanks.  I just went ahead and ordered it online.  One of these days I'll actually get around to using it.  I will keep my eyes open at Von's though.

    Do Smoker Prices Change????

    Smoker prices go down as summer winds down around here.  I bought my CG with SFB for 50% at the grocery store last year.  Some weird places sell them sometimes and they just seem to want to get rid of them at the end of the summer.

    Why are my temps so low! Char-griller Pro w/ Sidebox

    I'm in no position to comment on your error.  When I first opened the box and read the instructions I was very hesitant to punch a big hole in the side of my brand new rig.  Glad you got it figured out though.  When I did mine I used a punch and a hammer and the football hole was made to be...

    Why are my temps so low! Char-griller Pro w/ Sidebox

    I had very similar problems with my Char-griller.  The first thing that helped me in a pinch was to put the grates that came with my SFB back in, and put my charcoal on top of that.  It's hard to put much on it and tends to fall out if you over load it but it made a bit difference right away. I...

    Tenderquick Substitute

    I've tried and tried to find tenderquick, and I just used the locator and there is nothing within 50 miles of me.  I was wondering if there was a substitute for tenderquick?  I'm thinking about making some jerky and snack sticks and the like but I don't want to poison myself or my family/friends...

    finally back to smoking

    It was quite hard not having the smoker around for several months.  Even people at my work kept asking me when I would finally have it going again. Once the brisket was on the smoker I decided I had to make a fatty.  I decided to put scrambled eggs and hashbrowns that way we would have...

    Smoked BBQ Bologna Steaks

    I don't really like bologna, and never have, but the first time I had smoked bologna I couldn't get enough.  I think I might have to try this.  Great idea

    finally back to smoking

    So I've been without my smoker for a few months since I was forced to live in an apartment while waiting for a house.  Now that my first weekend in the house is here I've got to fire the grill up and get back to smoking.  I've been thinking and planning and preparing for months. I decided I...

    Cold Smoke Generator

    That's great!  I've been wondering about cold smoking and that looks right up my alley.  Maybe I can get my bro to bust out his welder.  Thanks for the post!

    Bacon Cheeseburger Fattie

    Fatties are slowly making me the favorite at work!  People started asking me everyday what I smoked.  I have to remind them that it's a labor of love and takes time.  But I bring in everything I smoke to share, and they love it.  They refer to my lunchbox as the smoked meat container.  I also...

    Bacon Cheeseburger Fattie

    I tried this a few weeks ago with mild success and no photos so it never happened right? :-)  This time I used a pound of ground beef with a little added water to help it stay moist.  I also added 1/4 of an onion diced and 3 slices of bacon diced, with some worcestershire sauce and some rub. ...

    Let the mods commence

    So here's my new "mod".  I took the expanded metal I had from before and inserted it below the lip that holds the cooking grate.  I also took a little extra I had left over to extend it to the end and used the original charcoal grate to cover the hole.  This set up lowers the platform 2-3" and...
