    Poor Man's Burnt Ends

    Looks good, thanks for the idea.  I really wish they would sell just points.  They sell just flats.  What do they do with the points that they separate, burger?   What a waste that would be.

    Pastrami - Success or Failure?

    I made pastrami, yesterday, from a corned beef brisket.  It was a nice thick flat, maybe there wasn't enough fat left on it.  At 7am, I got it out of the fridge, rinsed it, put on some mustard, and applied a rub of mostly black pepper, coriander and garlic.  I kept pretty true to Jeff's...

    Why can't I find a tri-tip?

    You can ask for Newport Steak, Santa Maria steak or a similar cut called a culotte steak.

    Tri-Tip Roast

    It comes from the bottom sirloin.  It's a great chunk of meat.  Whole, it is a roast, but it is also cut into steaks.  It used to be a bargain cut, but it's caught on and it's now a bit pricier.  Though, with even chuck reaching almost $5/lb, beef is just too expensive overall. Thanks.  Anchovy...

    Smoking butts for 300. OK to freeze in advance?

    Very kind of you. Do you have a food handler's license? You often hear stories on the news when people try to feed the homeless and the local goverent stops them for liability reasons. Are you working with an organization that is handling all that? I can confirm that pulled pork reheats...

    Offset smoker for under $350

    In Aaron's video he only added a thermometer.  That's the smoker he uses for his web series.

    Any commerical rubs that come close to this?

    Memories have ways of playing tricks on you.  I think once you start making your own ribs it's nearly impossible to enjoy them from most restaurants, especially chains(unless you're in a BBQ Mecca, and I see that you are not, me either.).  That rub certainly looks like it will work though, why...

    Tri-Tip Roast

    Thanks, guys.  Tri-Tip is a go to when I want a quick and easy meal for guests, or just whenever it's on sale.  These were choice roasts, from Costco, but I don't think they were any better than the selects I get at Stater Bros.  They did pre-trim the fat though(a bit more than I would have), so...

    Kobe brisket on the new smoker!

    Was it worth the premium over traditional prime?  Was it extra juicy?  I know you didn't get to try it till the next day.

    Best Pellet?

    I usually use CookingPellets Perfect Mix or Hickory for low and slow and in my AMNTS.  They are pure flavor woods, with no filler.  If I am cooking at high temperature I use whatever.  Currently, I am trying to go through all my Traeger pellets since they're mostly oak or alder(from before I...

    Tri-Tip Roast

    I cooked some tri-tip over the weekend.  I smoked them on the Traeger Jr at 180 degrees until they hit 125.  I then started up my Weber Genesis and let it preheat for 20 minutes and seared the roasts.  This was a trial run for my new maverick probe, and I think it did alright.  It's quite nice...
