Am I supposed to cook the bacon first, or put it in the food processor raw? Also, for all of you that have used the recipe, what kind of bacon did you use? Regular or maple or what? Thanks for the insight! -
Brinkmann Pitmaster Deluxe Refurbish
On the advice of the forum, I picked this smoker up from Craigslist for $50. I stripped it down, repainted it with high heat engine enamel, gave it new hardware, a baffle, heat guard in the fire box, and extended the smoke stack. Only thing left is to stain and bolt on the board. I did...- zimq

What charcoal do you use?
Recently switched over from an MES to a Weber Kettle. Just out of curiosity, what kind of fuel does everyone out there use? I have done 2 smokes so far.. one with standard Kingsford and one with Royal Oak. I found that the Kingsford was easier to regulate temp with, but I liked the flavor...- zimq

Slaw for topping PP
Everyone knows that slaw and PP go hand in hand, and the best way to compliment a nice PP sammich is to top it off with a little slaw love. Im in need for a good vinegar based slaw recipe, something that is a little sweet, with some red onions... something that has that nice translucent...- zimq
