    Gentlemen (and ladies!) My birthday (and spring along with it!) is fast approaching and my wife has approved funding for a new charcoal smoker. My cheap red electric smoker has been fun, but it is time to upgrade. I prefer to use charcoal for grilling and have been considering a charcoal...

    found tri tip is SE Michigan!

    I've been hearing about how delicious tri tip is on this forum and figured I'd call around and see if anyone had it. I live near Royal Oak, none of the local grocery stores had it including Costco. I finally found it at RJ's down in Detroit right next to Eastern Market. If you've never been to...

    "Cornell" Chicken w/ QView of course!

    So if you've been paying attention to anything I've posted lately it's revolved around me being inspired by Bobby Flay's show "BBQ Addiction." That show is dangerous! This is another recipe (slihgtly altered for my tastes) from his show that I have now done a couple times and it's fabulous...

    Peppercorn Pork Tenderloin w/ blueberry/apricot sauce

    This turned out fan-frickin-tastic a few nights ago, I figured I'd share the recipe and a few pics. I don't generally measure ingrediets, sorry guys! For the tenderloin: I rubbed two tenderloins down with canola oil, then used a pepper grinder with a variety of colored peppercorns, then some...

    Well I have a work potluck on Saturday and I happen to have friends coming over for dinner tonight, so I figured I give pulled pork a go. Yes, it's 3:30am and I just threw a picnic on the smoker, I'm going to feel like death tomorrow! Let's hope this baby is done by 6pm so I can rest and pull it...

    Phil's ABTs - carmelized onion stuffed Anaheim peppers!

    So I'm not a huge fan of Jalapenos, never loved the flavor I guess, but I'm a huge fan of stuffed Anaheim's so I decided to make my own version of ABTs. Cream cheese stuffing: Carmelize some finely chopped red onions, throw in a chopped up garlic clove and a bunch of your favorite herbs/spices...

    Smokin my first turkey tomorrow - couple questions

    So I've been reading through this section of the forum and have picked up a couple tips. Bird is about 12 pounds, it's brining in a mixture of water, honey, salt, sugar, and lots of herbs. Questions: My smoker is the Brinkman electric and it pretty much only heats at one temp. It reaches 225...

    Sunday smoke: need advice for my new brinkman electric

    Well it's a beautiful day and I've got some baby back ribs and some chicken legs on my new brinkman electric. Doing a bit of reading the last few nights, I put my wood chips in tinfoil packets and threw them on the heating element. Started with three packets, I'd guess a quarter cup of chips per...

    Smokin some pork chops!

    This afternoon I stopped by the local grocery store and had them cut me some thick center cut pork chops. Currently I'm an hour in to smoking, using Jeff's rub and a combination of apple and oak for smoking. Looking good so far!

    New guy and first smoking attempt!

    Hey guys, I'm Phil. I live north of Detroit. On Monday night had this crazy thought to smoke something, and I found this site poking around the internet looking for advice. I have a Master Forge charcoal grill that I attempted to use as a smoker and smoked a whole chicken. It was difficult to...
