Haven't posted here in years, still using my Traeger pellet pooper at least once a week, 6-10 times a month, year around. For a number of reasons, my current go to beverage is an old fashioned. Between no more soda (I know, the sugar in the syrup is the same), intermittent fasting (only...

Been awhile since I posted here, still go at it at least a couple times a week on the smoker (Traeger pellet pooper). Been wanting to try pork belly. Haven't found a whole one, but Costco had them cut into strips about 2 inches wide. I wanted to only do burnt ends, but decided to leave 3 strips...

Planning a little get together between 9 people, at a location not where the smoker is. 1 chuck barely fed 5 of us last time (well, to be honest 3 are teens, 2 of which are "starving" college students), so thought I would go for 2...then decided to try some faux burnt ends. 2 4.5 pound roasts...

Had to take out a bag of frozen some sort of beef that is about 1/2 thick. Usually like to go thinner, but this works. "Carne Asada" seasoning, and out on a hot high grill with a handful of Jalapenos and Hatch green chiles, a quartered onion with butter and chicken bouillon in foil, and a couple...

Other than browsing electric and propane upright smokers, I never really checked them out (other than home made trailer and commercial trailers at parties). I got my pellet smoker as a birthday gift after talking for a couple of years about getting an electric. It is basic but nice, does what I...

2.77 a pound on sale (briskets are much cheaper for choice), so got a few chuck roasts. my wife does them in a crock pot, so a 4 pounder got done that way yesterday, beef birria (a semi spicy stew). Left overs for awhile, freezes and reheats well. I got a 5 pounder to do slices as we have...

I was given this as a gift from my parents. They have given me my last two gas grills, I get around 15 years out of them, probably more if they didn't give me replacements. They must have been up late at night watching something and either switched to the infomercial, or they lured in by the...

Trying to get away from only making huge chunks of meat in the smoker, and doing single meals for 3 people. Bought some chicken quarters to do with ribs, but the ribs got made into their own meal. Since a short smoke and grill, used Mesquite pellets. 4 hours before cook time used vegetable oil...

I did my first brisket last weekend. I have had my smoker (Traeger pellet) for almost 2 months. I got a 15 pound choice full packer, trimmed the cap to around 1/4 inches, cut off the hunk of fat hanging off the point, and used a Texas style rub. Fat cap down, using Hickory pellets (which are...

Always been a griller, on natural gas. Easy, quick, and leaves the heat outdoors, where it belongs. I know Parents watching infomercials one night saw the Traeger pellet fed smoker, and felt I should have one, so they got me one for my birthday (wow!). I live in the Southwestern US desert...
