    Smoked pork ribs

    Thank you. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing ribs all the time and I go through a phase where I tell my wife no when she asks me if I want some. Then one day I realize I haven't done them forever. They're on sale somewhere every weekend. Maybe it's time again!

    Can ya recommend a WOK?

    I'm pretty sure those rings are meant as a counter stand for round bottom woks. Might work on gad but I'd be afraid of damage on a ceramic top.

    Smoked pork ribs

    I've got 3 gauges on the chamber, low left, low tight and too middle. They read high with the lower gauges reading somewhere between 275 and 300 and the higher gauge 375 ish. There is a catch, I run with no tuning plate, no baffle. Some call it top down versus using baffles and plates cause a...

    Can ya recommend a WOK?

    I don't know anything about the vortex but I have this grate on my 22" kettle. It fits perfectly. I can vouch for CGS, the brick and mortar store is here in town and Tom lives 300 yards from me. Great business and great guy. I have total faith in what he sells.

    Can ya recommend a WOK?

    I have one of these, they are great. I use it on the kettle but it is a round bottom. https://ceramicgrillstore.com/products/16-inch-cantonese-wok?_pos=1&_sid=ee838279b&_ss=r

    Homemade smoked beef sausage

    Oh man, even better next day. I asked the kids what they thought and they looked at me like I was crazy. "It's just sausage" while that is deflating I'll take it as a victory, mission accomplished, it tastes like smoked sausage! :emoji_laughing:

    Homemade smoked beef sausage

    This is just basic smoked sausage, it's universal and delish. I blended, stuffed, dried, smoked and ate in a day. Nothing fancy, no ice baths, no rigorous temperature graduation etc. It was dinner! Ground chuck, granulated garlic, onion, black pepper, chili powder, red pepper flakes...

    Smoker Purchase Suggestion

    Consider a kamado if you don't need tons of space and want real versatility. They can hold steady temps for 12+ hours with out adding fuel and can run anywhere between 150f to 700f. They smoke brisket, bake bread, make pizza, and grill up anything you want.

    I hope everyone had a great Father's Day

    The roast looks great, I haven't owned a rotisserie for a very long time but it's something that floats around in the back of my head often. Yes, the cigar was great, especially after about a half hour into it. The last 1/3 I'd always the best for me. I did enjoy a little Toki whiskey with it.

    I hope everyone had a great Father's Day

    I did next to nothing, got the call from my kids, had a card on my pillow etc. I did enjoy a nice smoke, made some spicy meat sticks and a 2lb beef steak. I hope y'all did something equally enjoyable! Sticks had habanero, ghost, Thai, dried, blended and mixed in. Delish! Steak was...

    Switching back!

    Briquettes for grilling duty like my kettle, also for starting the offset( then just splits) or starting the open pit. Nothing but lump in the Primo for lower ash.

    Couple of Ribs Today

    Looks like a fun cook. The ribs look great!

    Beef, beef, and more beef - offset

    I'd share! At the start of the smoke when the smoke ring forms I ran the Gen 2 with post oak that has only been seasoned for about 3 months. Better smoke ring that way. Nothing throws down a smoke ring like an offset in my opinion.

    Beef, beef, and more beef - offset

    Thank you. The ribs are gone but I cooled the roast overnight to slice and cube for lunches. I'll get some pics of that up. It also turned out fantastic.

    Beef, beef, and more beef - offset

    Thanks everyone, I need to buy 15 pounds of these ribs and toss them on the smoker. Would be great for a party and only takes about 4 to 5 hours to get them ready. I served these dry but a spicy Q sauce thinned with some apple cider vinegar would be amazing. I think I like these better than...

    Best Hot Dogs

    Nathan's, Hewbrew nationals, or the Members Mark all beef hotdogs. No special order to that list. Weekend before last I grilled up 80 hotdogs for a pool party, those were Ball Park all beef Frank's. At the end of the day they need to be all beef.

    Beef, beef, and more beef - offset

    Finished cutting up the rest of these beef ribs, got the veggies done and pulled that roast off the smoker. I'll cube that up for lunches later today. Dang that looks good, it was good for dinner last night and again for lunch today. And I ate too many of those brownies!

    Beef, beef, and more beef - offset

    It's that time of year when we dig deep in to the chest freezer and make some room. I have found a great and reliable source for these very meaty beef short ribs, found 3 pounds floating around. Just Montreal seasoning on these. Quick shot of a prime rib roast rib cap I removed from our...
