A really good guy that works for me is hosting his son's first birthday and baptism bash this weekend and asked me if I would "smoke up some stuff for about a 100 people".. HELL's YEAH! I says... so I took the day off and I'm going with brisket, butt, and some yard bird. Picked up three packers...

I was asked by a member to re-post this. I know there are many different designs of these, just thought I would share this simple one. Had a chance to play with the plazma cutter as well! Built this for the neighbor who primarily grills with gas and has two Weber Kettles - he's not really into...

Hey SMF, this is will be the second year I've helped a local March of Dimes group with a BBQ fund raiser. Last year I smoked 10 butts and 108#'s of chicken thighs. We had a great turn out and support from the community - even a couple of members  (Mr Bassman and Mr Bbally) attended  - so we are...

Fricking miserable day here in Western Colorado, so I'm kicking back, still in my jammies and sucking down some con leche's that are so damn good, I couldn't keep them from ya! I've got nothing against a good cup a cowboy coffee, but these are a treat every once in a while. Buddy of mine got me...

Whipped up some sticky buns tonight for an office thing tomorrow. I just use a basic bread dough with some cinnamon and vanilla added. The "sticky" is just brown sugar and pancake syrup - pecans optional. I use a rolling pen to roll out the dough - guessing 10 to 12" wide, slather with...

Hey SMF!  Been a while.  Finally had a break in the weather, so I smoked me up some brisky this last weekend. The weather here in Western Colorado has been absolutely beautiful two weekends in a row. Bassman took advantage of that last weekend and smoked "us" up four pork butts... So I thought...

Thanksgiving weekend marks a long standing family butchering tradition.  Figured I would show as much of this from start to finish as I could.  We slaughtered and butchered two hogs this year along with two beef.  These are big gals.. 650 - 700# 2 year old sows. Doesn't get much fresher than...

Starting off the day smoking four birds and two hams for the company Thanksgiving potluck. As I looked at the temps outside this morning, I recall it was this event last year that inspired me to insulate o'l WALLE like the Iron Maiden - thanks to BBQ Engineer for the idea, it makes and...

It's been a while since I've posted anything... just nothing outta the ordinary going on here, regular o'l ribs, shoulders, and such. If felt this was worthy, so I hope you enjoy it. My mom grew these punk'ens and gave them to the girls. The biggest one was just shy of 100#'s - could hardly...

This is the final finile on my roasted pepper thread Smoked, roasted, ground anaheims, poblanos, jalapenos = Walle-potle  ! I ground up the finally dried garlic and added to it the chili and chipotle powders along with some smoked salt. Tastes pretty darn good! Ground garlic Chili powders...

After all this talk about one's own chili powder, I'm jumping in with both feet. I've got a mix of three peppers, all in various stages of maturity... I like the taste of all of them at these stages, so my plan is to grind them together along with some dried garlic. I'm also going to try and...

First off, this post will probably get me a little red *** from my pepper pard, Bassman... sorry bud - last minute decision on my part... still have the pablonos...AND just happens that some of these packages have your name on them. Picked and pulled my anaheims today. Days are getting...

We had a staff lunch last week. I brought the pulled pork and everyone else potlucked the sides and deserts. This cobbler was awesome. If you like shortcake, you need give this a try. I'm making this today for the first time for a BBQ at the neighbors house this afternoon. FRESH PEACH SHORTCAKE...

Following my last post, I decided to whip up some huevos polbanos this morning. Poblanos and anaheim's canoed Chopped the tops and mixed with breakfast sausage Sprayed and coated with garlic and BP, then filled with egg. Goal was to break a whole egg, fill with sausage, then grill...

Oh yeah - Awesome Poblano Turds! Thought I would share this - tried a new process with the poblano's after having them stuffed over at Keith's last weekend. Fresh picked these outta the garden, canoed them, carved out the seeds, then stuffed with smoked gouda, cheddar, shrooms, and a pat of...

Inspired by a lot of folks a heck of a lot more creative than myself... decided to put a little twist on some chops I've been marinading. Marinated these chops in a mixture of OJ and cranberry juice, a squirt of italian dressing, and a shake of soy sauce since Saturday. Made a pocket in them...

A while back me and Bassman made some Venison Bacon. While I was at his house, I ate one of the best Chimies I have ever had. With that and last weeks breakfast conversation in mind, I tore into a batch of chimichangas this afternoon. I don't have many pictures, so I'll describe it as best as I...

I've cooked a fair amount of brisket, but never one in WALLE.. I was talking to an S.O.B. here in town earlier this week that some of you may know as BASSMAN, who was mack'en down on a pulled pork chimichanga for breakfast.. and he just HAD to share that with me. I've been hungry for pulled...

Smok'en some chops tonight, but the REAL news is the ABT's.   I checked my chilies in the garden and whoa damn! got some that could go if I had extra energy... So I pick a half dozen and am giving them a taste test tonight. Crook neck squash is also coming off, so here's the deal: Fresh picked...

I know, I know! I'm riding these left over spares till they squeal! Wife left me for the week, so cooking what the hell I want ! Made more of Bassman #1 Sourdough with cheddar and Japs this weekend. Damn boys and girls, it is the SHAT! Made a grilled sammie tonight using the bread and the...
