    Smoker & Grill outdoor kitchen ideas

    Smoked up some amazing wings yesterday - little applewood and hickory mixed. About 20 lbs of wings and then about 10 lbs of drumsticks. To finish them off I like to crank the grill up as high as it will go, then dump the wings onto the grill, close it up and listen to the Wet wing sizzle...

    As the title suggests - hoping to get a close approximation for a 5lb brisket tomorrow. Considering cooking at 230*, foiling at 165* and pulling it at 203* IT, rest for an hour and then devour. I suspect it will be 4-5 hrs till I foil - and then another 2+ hrs to get up to 203* IT. I'll only...

Just put kosher salt, pepper, cayenne, onion powder and some paprika rub in generous fashion all over this hunk of meat.  Wrapped and back in the fridge till...
