    Day-Off Ribs ( with QVIEW )

    So I have the day off today, and last night realized a had 2 racks of spares in the freezer from 4th Of July. I went ahead and defrosted 'em overnight with just salt & pepper ( the way I really like 'em ), and pecan smoke. I did rub-down the tips, and slathered 'em with yellow mustard. Quite a...

    Rocky start to todays smoke

    Well, I've got a 6.74 lb. flat that was supposed to be in the pit at 7am, but I had some last-second problems with the pit that required a trip to the Home Depot. What a pain in the arse. Oh well, at least it happened BEFORE the pit was fired up. With this delay in the brisky start, a long...

    best beer for BBQ

    Well, if I'm being " good " it's a Bud Light. But if it's what I want ? It's Budweiser. And seeing as how it's 4th of July weekend coming up, I'm having a bunch of people over, and I'll be spending essentially all weekend at the pit, I decided to go ahead and be bad, and picked-up two 36 packs...

    what kind of scale does ever one used

    I have an OXO digital scale that my gf gave me as a Christmas gift last year. I love the thing, being able to convert from American weights to grams with the push of a button. Plus, it's great for portion control ( burgers especially..........i like the 10oz'ers ). It has a metal platform, has...

    Timing Question on some butts.

    Man, you've got a long weekend in front of you just like me. I've got a 13 pound brisky, and 6 racks of spares to get done by just around 5:00 Sunday. What I'm planning on is getting the brisky in the pit by 7:00 AM Saturday, and the ribs to go on about 8 or 9 AM Sunday. I'm figuring on just...

    Quickie chicken smoke Q-VIEW

    So I'm not too busy this week, and have today off. At the last minute I decided to throw a 5 1/2 pound chicken in the pit about 45 minutes ago. What the heck, I have a LITTLE charcoal and a LITTLE wood, and just enough time to have it ready for tonight. Fun, fun, fun on a Wednesday afternoon...

    Question about ribs from the experts

    You can use a thin-bladed knife to get under the membrane on one corner, then try to pull it ( with FEEL , as to not tear it ) in one big piece. But hey, if it tears, it tears. Just get it started again. Sometimes, certain racks can be rather finicky about having this done, and you'll end up...

    Wood selection for ribs

    Hey, straight hickory will work just fine for ribs, providing you dont use too much. As far as mesquite, well, I dont like it for any cooking ( smoking or grilling ) that will last more than about one hour. What is a fairly sweet, smoky flavor up until that point seems to change to bitter and...
