    Such a thing as a Texas BBQ guided tour?

    Thanks, nice to know some of the must-see places. I'm still hoping somebody is aware of a company that does some type of packaged deals. It would be nice to have the driving and itinerary planned out with some tips and such on what to see and do along the way.

    Such a thing as a Texas BBQ guided tour?

    I've never visited Texas but would love to experience it through some type of organized tour with a strong emphasis on bbq. I'd like to visit some of the old school bbq restaurants as well as see some other sights along the way. I think I would go crazy trying to identify places and am hoping...

    Tips for seasoning

    Firewood hoarders such as myself use a moisture meter to determine if it is dry. That said, I don't know what is acceptable for smokewood.

    1 BBQ to replace 3? Performer maybe?

    Out back I have a WSM charcoal smoker, a Landmann GOSM propane smoker and a Weber Spirit propane grill. I've been giving thought to simplifying and reducing down to 1 new unit that can both smoke and grill. I've seen a few videos online where people are grilling and smoking with a Performer...

    Should I use Sea Salt or Kosher Salt for rub?

    I usually use prepared rubs but want to try making my own. Also going to try basic salt and pepper. I have both 'Coarse Sea Salt' and 'Coarse Kosher Salt' and not sure if there is a difference or which to use. Any suggestions?

    Boston butt on the WSM

    Man that is a long smoke! Did you have to fire up another load of coals? If so was it a full load or just a starter chimney full? I did a 5.5 lb. butt Saturday and was expecting it to take around 8.5 hours since it was on the small side (1.5 hours per lb.). But it took 12 hours which was over 2...

    Outdoor storage for smoking tools?

    How do you like it? I prefer a Rubbermaid but seeing mixed reviews on everything. Warpage, leaking, etc.

    School me on grapevine wood for smoking

    I can harvest a good bit of this wild grapevine (specifically it is summer grape Vitaceae Vitis if you are doing your research) and would be interested in a smokewood swap with somebody who can provide me either pecan or mesquite. I'm doing pretty good on all the other smokewoods that I would want.

    Outdoor storage for smoking tools?

    I'd like to see any pics you guys have of smaller tool sheds I can get to store my various smoker tools/equipment. My local Lowes doesn't have any of these assembled now so hard to shop them. With 2 smokers on the back deck I have a hodge podge of the usual gear that I'd like to store adjacent...

    My first smoker

    I would not get a 5 PSI regulator if masterbuilt doesn't recommend it. A standard regulator should be just fine. I have toyed with higher pressure regulators for misguided reasons and went back to a standard regulator. Season it by first giving it a moderate spray (not too heavy, not too...

    WTB vertical smoker

    No, sorry, didn't notice this was a classified posting. Interesting smoker. I can see why you are looking for a used one.

    School me on grapevine wood for smoking

    How do I know when the sap is down? Currently all the leaves have fallen. I can try and harvest some pieces further up the vine or possibly look for some sections that are already dead.

    School me on grapevine wood for smoking

    I have decent quantities of oak, hickory, maple and cherry but keep seeing these large, shaggy grapevines in our woods. Grapevine is listed as a wood that can be used but I guess I am curious if it is worth the effort to harvest and use it. Truth is my palate isn't sophisticated enough...
