    Thinking of getting a Chevy Tahoe

    Looking at a 2023 Tahoe premiere, 17K on the clock. A dealer friend can get it from Canada for me (have done this many times with him). Other than my 1981 Corvette, I have not had any Chevys. It has the 5.3 engine, and magnetic ride suspension along with most, if not all the bells and...

    What can I do with these thin beef ribs?

    When the stores put prime rib on sale I stock up. The stores trim the ribs thin and tie them back onto the roast. What can I do with these? They look too thin to smoke and eat like this. Do I thaw and cut the meat off for beans or grind for burgers?

    casing question

    So in 2022 I bought 29/32mm Hog Casings, SALTED & BAGGED from the craft butcher pantry. Bought them when I got my Kitchenaid and had visions of grandger (spelling?) then. Now that I have a grinder and will probably get a cheap Vevor horizontal stuffer, thinking about if they are still good...

    Korean Gojuchang beef short rib Pho

    Ok, there really is no such thing but I gave it a whirl anyway. I had some thin cut, boneless short rib meat from Wildfork in the freezer (they just opened a store a mile away). Set them up in a zip lock and made the marinade: crushed pineapple with juice crushed garlic light and dark soy...

    usable cuts for burger grinding

    So the Weston #8 grinder will probably be ordered this week after following some recent threads about them. My question is what cuts are good to grind for burgers? Opinions on a mix or ratio, any input will be appreciated. Anyone use bread crumbs or egg in the mix? Perusing Costco today I...

    Yet another Pastrami thread.

    Well after reading @chopsaw, @bill ace 350, @fxsales1959 threads very recently I had to do it. I already had a corned beef in the freezer a 3 pounder flat cut. Over night soak with a couple water changes. rubbed with the usual spices, coriander, bay leaf, pepper and I am sure other stuff. It...

    IPA beer can Vortex whole chicken with @Jcam222 sauces

    Wanted to break in the new vortex today on the new to me kettle, very windy day. Also needed to try some of the @jcam222 sauces that I just came into possession of. Rubbed the bird down with the poultry rub that came with the vortex bundle. Onto the kettle with hot briquettes and cherry...

    You get what you pay for...Vortex

    So when I got my first kettle a couple years ago I had no idea what a vortex was, so of course hit up Amazon and ordered one. After I was using it, I came to realize that vortex was actually the name of it...but of course on Amazon all the cheap knock offs come up first. I was bummed...

    You people made me do it again!

    Look what followed me home from FB Marketplace! A Weber performer with gas assist and cover. She even gave me the BBQ tools (like I need more) baskets and a veggie platter. There was even gas in the bottle and it lit on the first push. Thinking it is about 2014 vintage, always stored inside...

    Got this from my Jeep forum, have to give credit to @Apparition who is a member here and on the TJ Jeep forum Bing has an AI image generator that's pretty interesting to play with. I've seen some really impressive pictures created on another forum. Try it out and post them here...

    Pork Loin on the gravity feed

    Nothing spectacular but a new cook to me. Had a couple of friends over and took part of a Costco loin to smoke. I did not weigh or brine, just used bees knees hot honey as the binder and kosmos honey killer bee as the rub. Mixed up an apricot glaze with butter, brown sugar, lemon juice and...

    cooking ribs faster than 3-2-1

    We have relatives coming over this weekend and I know one of them are bringing a couple marinated racks of ribs (assuming St. Louis). I will probably only have 4 hours at the most to smoke them on the MB 800 gravity. What temp/time should I do this at? I will probably wrap in the middle...

    Would this be safe - Beef

    I have a London broil that is vac packed and is frozen (was bought unfrozen). Would it be OK for me to defrost, throw a couple hours of smoke on it maybe to 110 deg. Then vac pack and refreeze for a later cook to usable temps? or maybe smoke frozen to a lower temp.

    Public safety warning for men...

    As you know, women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at the mall & in dark parking lots, etc. This scam targets men. I wanted to pass it on in case you haven't heard about it. It can happen at Lowe's, Home Depot, Costco or even WalMart. I’ve been caught totally by surprise. Over...
