    Best BBQ cocktails?

    Wow...Blackpacker, I've copied those recipes. They sound good to me and I'm not even a liquor guy, though I do like Hennessey and gin and tonics. The mojitos sound good too and I thought margaritas would have been great. My wife wound up making Manhattans which were a hit with some, but others...

    The Ron Man has left us

    I haven't been on the forum all week and just found out this sad news. RIP RonP, no doubt there is already some thin blue streaming out of the pearly gates. God bless, Carol, you're in all of our thoughts and prayers.

    Best BBQ cocktails?

    I'm mostly a beer guy, so I have to admit I have no idea when it comes to mixed drinks. But, we're having some people over this weekend, I'm smoking a butt for the shindig and doing up some other BBQ goodies, and my wife was interested in having some sort of cocktail concoction to go along with...

    best beer for BBQ

    Love me some Dogfish Head 90 and 120 minute. Damn good beer.  This weekend I have two goodies... 400 Pound Monkey, which is an English IPA by Left Hand Brewing, and Holy Mackerel Special Golden Ale, which is 8.5%, and very tasty.

    Pit Masters

    I thought the one redeeming thing was that Warren Sapp was on the show. I'm biased because I'm a huge Bucs fan, but I love Sapp. The guy is total charisma and believe me, that dude can eat. As for the rest of it....well, I'll probably keep watching just out of morbid curiousity. Hopefully it...

    BBQ Chicken Marinade ???

    My favorite chicken marinade is Chiavetta's Bar-B-Q Marinade. It is a delicious vinegar-based marinade and it can be used to either marinade or baste the chicken (I marinaded and basted one time and it was a little too heavy). It's also very good on pork and ribs. I've been using it for years...

    Fish safety?

    Thanks for the input guys, it's an interesting topic for sure considering some, including myself, eat a lot of fish raw. I did enjoy the wahoo last night, though it wasn't smoked. Just grilled it and seasoned it with mojo. Very tasty and I'll probably smoke it next time.

    Fish safety?

    Thanks bbally...the fish really does seem OK, but I've hemmed and hawed on this thing and I think I'm not going to risk it. It was hot today and the fish was on sale pretty cheap. I finally found this on the FDA website and it was definitely well above 90* in my truck... Never leave seafood or...

    Does anyone use a Cookshack Smoker ?

    I have owned a Cookshack for about two years and I love it. It was an upgrade for me from an ECB. It does an awesome job. I love that the door seals very tight, it takes minimal amount of wood and it's easy to use. The temp control on mine (I have the Smokette II) is pretty much dead-on and when...

    Fish safety?

    Alright, so I screwed up big time today. Our local fish monger had a sale on wahoo and I got two pounds of it. When I got home, I was anxious to get to work - I am a freelance writer, work from home and am really over-stressed about this particular deadline I'm on. Long story short, I left the...
