New here. Please advise. Bottom, sirloin tip or eye of round. Which?
I third, forth and fifth the selection of sirloin tip. Hard to get here in Houston, not a popular cut for some reason. It's great done sous-vide-que. Next would definitely be chuck. By all you can at sale price. Round is good but not my go to beef cut. -

Pork, Beef and Chicken Oh my...
Sorry about the pics? Dude you need to get an award for pulling that cook off. The fattie, the meatloaf, the wings, the spuds; I mean that's one heck of a meal cooked at North Pole conditions!! Also love your dog. Heck they don't care if it's hot, cold or indifferent. They just smell meat...- troutman

Help me pick new smoker/grill
I'm a pellet head too and would also look at the Yoder, WAY over any Traeger made. However, you also mentioned a Kamado. Don't know what kind of research you've done but the Kamado and a pellet grill are two completely different animals. They use different fuel, cook somewhat differently and...- troutman

Smoked Andouille, Spinach and Sweet Potato Soup
Thanks, I noticed you're guarded with your recipe, I can appreciate that !!! I'll look into the Folse recipe you posted in the above thread, it's simple enough, probably add the old Troutman Texas touch. I also like your discussion about the simplicity of cajun and even creole cooking. It's...- troutman

FireBoard Fan - Any Reviews?
Been looking around the old interweb and forums for any feedback on the FireBoard fan. Can't seem to find much. I'm about ready to take the FireBoard plunge and need fan control for my WSMs especially. Is their fan working well, anyone got one they could report on? Or should I just hang back and...- troutman

1st Sous Vide Porterhouse
Nice looking steak but did notice that the sear caused some graying to occur. As a suggestion next time, put your freshly bathed meat packs in a big pot of 50/50 ice and water to shock the meat and stop the cooking process. If you want to cook later, it's at the proper safe temperature and can...- troutman

A pellet pooper folowed me home!
Congrats on your new pellet pooper. One thing to remember is the smoke profile is going to be very different going from a stick burner to a pellet grill. It will give you excellent results if done right, just not as smokey. The convenience factor is really nice however, in fact I find myself...- troutman

Love Halibut but it's pricey, any economical substitutes ?
I like and sometimes eat cod. Turbot is excellent too. Probably won't find that in Iowa. If you go to Costco they often have farm raised whole rainbow trout. Although opinions vary on farm raised, I find them to be real tasty. You can bread and pan fry, oven bake or smoke them on your... -
