    Any takes on Rosemary seasoning?

    Rosemary is a key seasoning in this You Tube Recipe. I mentioned it to a close friend who shares a passion for smoking meat and food. "My kids don't like when I use Rosemary." I rarely do, but it seems essential in this recipe, helps set it apart. Everyone has their favorite food joint, or they...

    Pawn Stars BBQ joint.

    It's located in a shipping container park next to the Pawn Shop in Las Vegas. Not bad, not Central Texas Style but good and reasonable prices all things considered. Full bar with friendly service, limited parking. We've worked our way through the menu and it's been OK. Bloody Marys: Wife's...

    Bringing meat and Seafood to room temp before cooking. Your take:

    I belong to a service organization and we throw functions that generate money for a local special needs school. We have a bar that rakes in money from foot traffic, but the dinner nights really brought in bank. We did a Fish fry that had lines out the door. A local guy sold his Fish and Chips...

    Consistency. Are bigger smokers better at it?

    If I'm lucky enough I can have a few words with the owner of a good Smoke House. THE most often heard word from them, the most important word is consistency.

    How do Ferrell Hogs taste?

    Wife was watching You Tube Shorts and some Ferrell Hog trapping videos pop'd up. Anyone cook these? Good, bad, does it depend on where they feed? Would leaving caches' of fruit in the wild to eat make them like Kalua Pig flavor? Or is that too ambitious? Or,, forget it? If anyone has...
