    First time making a pastrami and...Wow!! (With pics)

    So I had this cryo-packed, store-bought corned beef in the freezer just taking up space that will be need for hunting season. Decided that this was going to be the time to try a pastrami for the first time. It's something I've been meaning to get to all summer. I looked at a couple different rub...

    Easter Brisket Flat!

    Did a 9 pound flat in the Camp Chef XXL for Easter, along with a double smoked spiral ham in the other pellet smoker. Wet it down with Worcestershire as a binder then rub with Meat Church Holy Cow and let it dry brine overnight in the fridge. At 7:00 am I fired up the smoker for a hot and fast...

It's pretty much 3 full days of eating and drinking, and just hanging out enjoying the the scenery and camaraderie.

    Catskills Surf & Turf

    Bear's trout thread made me want to share this with you all. Was up at the place in the Catskills this weekend and got some fishing time in. These were very nice trout and I cook them in white wine, butter, lemon, and olive oil. They are laying on a bed of onions and seasoned. Everyone loves...

    A nice big batch of Pheasant (and maybe some chukar) Cacciatore!

    Time to get some of these birds out of the freezer and into the pot. I still have about 3 months of bird hunting to do and I need the room! These are all skinless breasts, legs and thighs. I brined them about 8 hours (it's a BIG batch) then thoroughly rinsed. My sauce is a a simple mix of...

    Another Father's Day Feast (with Q-View - Pics!)

    Had the family and some close friends over for Father's Day. I like to put on a big cook every year for Dad's Day and this one was kind of special because it was my first one as a new Grandpa. Started out with some Stromboli in my Camp Chef pizza oven - My own recipe pizza sauce, pepperoni...

    ThermoWorks Customer Service 👍

    Just wanted to pass on a great experience I just had with ThermoWorks. I’ve owned a Smoke unit and the WiFi bridge for a long time. I have a few other products of theirs too. A short time ago I broke the plastic kickstand on my Smoke. Tried a few times time glue it together, tried UV welding...

    BBQ Snobbery

    I’m a little bummed and annoyed. A local volunteer fire department here is having a BBQ Competition this fall and I just found out that they’re only allowing wood and charcoal burners to compete. No gas and no pellets (electric). This isn’t a “sanctioned “ event and they only have two...

    Big weekend in the Catskills and an amazing happy BBQ accident! Lots of pics and Q-Vue

    Every year, sometimes twice a year we have a gathering over 3 days in the Catskill mountains in NY at the old farmhouse that I've been hunting and fishing at since I was a kid. Many of the out of town guys are from the Chicago area and don't get the authentic Italian food and specialties that we...

    First time with my new pizza oven!

    For Christmas the wife got me the pizza oven attachment for my Camp Chef Sidekick. I've been dying to try it out, just waiting for a free weekend and some decent weather here in NY. I gotta say, the pizza was awesome! I used my own recipe for the pizza sauce, and frozen dough I got at...

    Pizza stone with cast iron?

    Probably a dumb question, but I just got the pizza oven attachment for my Camp Chef Sidekick. The floor of it is a non-removable pizza stone. I also have a Lodge cast iron pizza pan. Wondering if there's any harm or disadvantage to placing the pan in the pizza oven on the stone when I want...

    Smoked Honey-Teriyaki Wings

    Ok, so here's some smoked Honey Teriyaki wings I did in the Camp Chef Smokepro DLX for Father's Day. I've been thinking about doing them again and because they came out so good I thought I'd share how I did it. All store-bought ingredients because I kinda "winged it" (sorry couldn't resist )...

    So THIS happened the other day...could use a couple recipe ideas

    So I retired a year ago after almost 34 years as an LEO and about a month ago I realized a lifelong dream and bought myself a new hunting partner. Ginger is a 2 year-old English Setter. I took some time to bond with her and now that deer season is winding down I decided it was time to get her...

    First time smoked cheddar FAIL!!

    Tried to smoke some cheddar today. Took a 2lb block of sharp NY cheddar and cut it in half. Put wine barrel pellets in the adjustable Amazen tube and got it going with a torch. I put the cheese on the upper warming rack of my Camp Chef and placed the tube down below and off to the far left of...

    Pellet magnets - I got a little creative today...

    The other day I was poking around on the web and saw some magnets that you stick on your hopper to remind you of what pellets you have loaded. They were pretty pricey, too so I got to thinking about how I could make my own. Bought a package of colored magnetic vinyl sheets on Amazon, they came...

    Case for the InkBird IBT-6XS?

    I just bought a new IBT-6XS and an extra meat probe. Does Inkbird have a case to hold this model? Searching on Amazon it looks like there's a case for pretty much every other model, but not that one.

    New Smoker Day!

    My new Camp Chef XXL arrived today, a couple weeks sooner than I expected! I had ordered it from Amazon and I think they fulfilled it through OutdoorCooking.com. Got a deal including the cover. Amazon gave it an estimated delivery date of around May 28 so I was pretty surprised when UPS rang...
