    Brisket with Mopping Sauce

    I've finally gotten comfortable enough with smoking brisket to feel like I can try something new. I found this slab on sale at Cash 'n Carry for $2.50/lb so decide it was time to experiment. I loaded the Traeger with Texas Mesquite pellets from Bear Mountain and fired her up to 225 degrees...

    The Ultimate Rib Sandwich

    So today I had a potluck dinner with my extended family. As the smoker enthusiast of the family I was asked to bring a meat dish. This is what I ended up with. I used the 3-2-1 method for 2 racks of ribs on my traeger, each where coated in Memphis Dust and smoked using hickory pellets. I...

    First Pastrami

    Went to Cash-n-Carry to buy some pellets and they had a sale on corned beef full packer brisket. So like any pastrami loving, rueben sandwich craving smoke enthusiast I decided now was as good a time as any to try my hand at Pastrami. So I soaked this 14 lbs of brine-saturated perfection...

    Catered My Own Wedding, 150 Guests

    So boys, it finally happened... I'm a married man. We said 'I Do' this last Sunday. It was the single most Happy/Stressful day of my life. A lot of that stress came from the fact that I had made all the food and this was my first time cooking for more than 20-30 people. The Thursday before...

    Fathers Day/Game 7 Pork Fajitas

    Throwing on a 9 lb bone-in pork shoulder roast to make fajitas with when the game starts. Part of my gift to both my father and my father-in-law who is in town for the weekend. Used McCormicks faqita/taco seasoning for the rub but I'm in need of a glaze to put on after we get back from church. I...

    First Brisket (and I have questions)

    My wife's co-worker gave us a thawed 5-6 lb brisket to smoke tomorrow. She didn't know the weight so I weighed myself on the bathroom scale with and without it to find the difference. I have thrown a rub of chili powder, cumin, black pepper, white pepper, garlic, Creole seasoning, and red...

    Rosemary Garlic Montery Jack

    Before the wife and I head to church this morning I decided to through on some cheese to smoke while we are gone. Last night I bought a block of Winco Monterey Jack. I diced rosemary and added it to garlic powder to form a rub. I have never put a rub on cheese so this is kind of a shot in the...

    Pulled Pork for my Wedding

    I'm catering my own wedding. I will cook the Pork on a BBQ trailer three days prior to the wedding, then freeze it, then thaw (add JJ's finishing sauce) and serve with BBQ sauce on the side. My question is, should I use Pork butt or save some money and buy Pork cushion? The difference in cost...

    Insulated Cabinet Smokers built in Washington

    I'm looking for a quality brand that makes insulated cabinet smokers in Washington or Oregon. Whenever I look online the ones I'm interested in are built in Texas or further away, and I'd like to avoid shipping costs.

    Meat and Potatoes (my first post)

    So I had family over all weekend helping prune trees and do other yard work. Decided to pay them back with a big Sunday dinner. Went to the store and bought 5 lbs of potatoes, an onion, a head of cabbage, and several pounds of pork carnitas. I got home and assembled my arsenal. The...

    Pulled Pork Finishing Sauce

    I love making pulled pork on my traeger. I usually smoke for 3 hours at 225 and then foil pan it with loose tin foil over too at 250 for another 3 hours. Turns out nice and juicy. The problem is that, at least for my tastes, smoothering the finished product in rich, sweet bbq sauce takes away...
