    My 1st Brisket

    I've gotten great results with my spares and my butts, so I've decided that today is the day that I try my first brisket. Started off with picking out this 5 1/2 pound flat : I rubbed it with olive oil and the following rub ingredients: 2 tablespoons kosher salt 1/2 tablespoon onion powder...

    Pork Butt with Bad Byrons

    I picked up some Bad Byron's Butt Rub yesterday, along.  Hearing mixed reviews about it, I was hoping I would find it on the positive side.  Using the Smokenator 1000 and Kingsford Charcoal along with pecan chips, I put a small butt (3.6lb) onto my Weber Kettle charcoal grill.  Using my Maverick...

    Smokenator Meat Loaf

    I smoked a rack of pork spare ribs earlier today, but soon after placing my spareribs into the cooler to rest, I saw that I still had plenty of burning coals left in the Smokenator 1000.  Because of this, and the fact that there was still plenty of beer left, I decided to go ahead and smoke my...

    Pork Butt & Baby Backs with Smokenator 1000

    Okay, yesterday I did the test run with the Smokenator 1000 and got a good feel for it, so today is the first cook with it.  I had coated a 4.7 lb pork butt and two racks of baby back ribs with rub and placed into ziplock bags to sit overnight.  At 05:30, the grill was up and ready to go so onto...

    Smokenator 1000

    I just got my Smokenator 1000 in the mail today.  Now I have to wait all week for the weekend to arrive to give it a whirl.  Could have used it yesterday, but still eating off that pulled pork so it's all good.

    Maverick ET-732 Probe Questions

    Okay, today was my first time using my Maverick ET-732 thermometer.  I had to twist tie the transmitter to the grills' handle as I don't have a table close enough to reach...anyhow, that worked out fine.  There are a couple of questions I had about the two probes though. First, the grill...

    4 lb Pork Butt on 22 1/2" Weber Kettle

    Smoking on the Weber Kettle certainly has a learning curve.  I'm currently smoking a 4 lb. pork butt and a rack of pork spare ribs.  After 2 1/2 hours, the internal temp is 165 degrees, so I have taken it to the minion method (off the rack, wrapped it in foil and back on the rack).  I am having...

    Ribeye Night

    Grilled up some wonderful ribeyes tonight.  How I cooked them: 1) Unpackaged them and allowed them to sit out on the counter while I fired up the chimney full of Kingsford Mesquite charcoal. 2) Spread Extra Virgin Olive Oil on both sides of each of the ribeyes.  3) Sprinkled Weber Chicago...

    My Maverick Has Arrived

    Yay!  I got the Maverick ET-732 that so many have raved about and wouldn't you know it, there is a weekend coming up?  I will definitely be putting this to the test.  Thinking of smoking a butt and spare ribs this weekend.  I have the sibling rib challenge coming up in July, so my question to...

    NY Strips on my new Weber 22 1/2" Gold

    My wife's Mother's Day request was steaks on the grill.  I haven't cooked steaks on charcoal in a long time but was anxious to do so. I purchased some beautiful 1 inch Strips at Publix and while shopping I found that Publix also carries some Weber seasonings that I have never come across...

    New Weber One-Touch Gold Fan

    I just picked up my first charcoal grill in over 20 years. After doing some research, I chose the Weber One-Touch Gold 22 1/2" model. I'm stoked! I put it together in about 15 minutes and already have the ribs on and smoke billowing from the vents. Awe, that wonderful aroma. Q-view will...

    "Grill Challenged" Newbie

    Hello everyone.  My name is Jim and I live just south of Jacksonville, Florida.  I am closing in on my 47th year of living and have grilled for nearly my entire adult life.  I've come to realize recently that what I called "grilling" simply wasn't all it could be.  In the past I have thrown a...
