    Wood Rack

    Those are purty but I think they waste space under the curves and you can't overstack the wood in them like you can a flat rack. It makes it difficult to rotate your wood supply as well; with a flat rack, you can pile all the old wood on one side of the rack and then put new wood on the empty...

    Looking for a Builder in NC (Offset Stick Burner)

    Yes, i paid to have a big Argentinean style grill shipped from Arizona to NC last year; the fire bed is lined with fire brick and it weighed over 800 lbs when crated. I also paid to have a 300 lb. gravity feed smoker shipped from Georgia to NC just a few weeks ago. I couldn't find anything...

    Dry Aged Ribeye's Done

    I generally dry brine 6 to 10 hours with just salt and add any other seasonings after grilling. I've done both forward and reverse searing but I have trouble judging doneness with reverse searing and usually forward sear. One thing to watch for is dry aged steak usually cooks faster than fresh...

    Best dry age refrigerator

    I've had a SteakAger Pro40 for almost a year and it's worked flawlessly: https://www.steakager.com/ Please note that if you read reviews on the web, the negative ones are mostly (all?) from the failed partnership with Kingsford; SteakAger now works with Danby on the refrigeration unit and has...

    Which gravity smoker?

    They've been using insulated gravity smokers on the competition circuit for years; they aren't meant to hit searing temperatures but the insulation make then much more efficient than the MB units. The only semi-mass market or I've seen is the old country unit sold at Academy Sports and other...

    Looking for recommendations on cookware?

    I switched to an induction cooktop several years ago and spent a lot of time looking for new cookware since my old stuff wasn't induction compatible. I was leaning towards All Clad but found that their handles hurt my hands. I ended up getting the Williams-Sonoma ThermoClad. Comparable to All...

    How much wood should I use in my Masterbuilt gravity?

    How does fuel consumption compare between this and all charcoal? Do the splits last as long as charcoal? I don't have an MB but have an insulated gravity feed on order. I realize the insulated gf should be more efficient than the MB but would think the relative burn rates would be similar.

    What backyard grill should I get?

    Have you looked at Santa Maria sir grills? Wood, charcoal, or both and lots of fun playing with fire. Smoking is a bit inconvenient unless you get one with a lid but you didn't mention smoking. You can outfit some of them with a rotisserie too.
