    Spider Grill 22

    I hope you all are doing well these days. I'm considering buying one of these to expand on what I can cook on my Weber kettle. I've seen very little from the current version as far as first person experience. Do any of you have a current model in the three month old range? If so, what has been...

    Hi everyone, I hope that life is treating you all well. I'm on the hunt for some nice new BBQ gloves. Do any of you have any good experiences with a particular brand?

    Charcoal Chimneys

    Hey everyone. I hope that this Sunday is treating you well. I’m looking for recommendations on a replacement charcoal chimney. I’ve bought the classic Weber chimney the last couple of times around. Eventually the spiral cone warps and my last chimney literally had the bottom fall out full of...

    Tri Tip Feast

    I just wanted to share our delicious tri tip from this last Sunday. I smoked this with a mix of mesquite and hickory. Since it was “on sale” for $5.99lb last week I decided $17 was worth it for a great smoked dinner. It came out succulent. I also love using these Budweiser beer battered shrimp...

    Is It Just Me?

    What’s with the inflated meat prices? I know I am in So Cal but dang the prices of everything except chicken has tripled or quadrupled in the last couple of weeks. I’m not sure if this is due to these hackers jacking with our country or something else entirely. Anyone have any clue? G

    Pig Shot Question?

    Have any of you used Italian sausage for your pig shots? Is there too much shrinkage? I am thinking of doing some pig shots with some mild Italian sausage that I have in the freezer for Memorial Day. Due to the extra fat content, I am just a little concerned that they will shrivel up. If that's...
