    Thermoworks Smoke Review

     Came in the mail earlier this week and put it to the test yesterday and was very impressed . First, it seems to be built like a tank, it has much better probes than the others, super fast readings and communication with its remote, both the main unit and the remote have a backlight, large...

    Akorn in action

    19 outside and smoking 30 lbs of butts in the Akorn. Glad I didn't waste the extra money on a ceramic grill, I've had my Akorn for obout a year and a half and have smoked tons of meat on it. Rock steady temps and all day cooks, no problem I'd buy another in a second.

    Selling Rubs?

    Just wondering where the best place to have your rubs packaged? I have people just about every cook wanting to get rubs off of me but I don't sell my rubs, nor, do I give out the recipes. So, that being said if I wanted to have my rubs packaged/bottled so I can sell at venues where would I have...

    Pop ups are killing me

    This is a great site but theses pop up ads are killing me. I know you gotta pay the bills but this is getting to be to much. Sucks, just my opinion.

    Whole hogz on a reverse flow

     I have cooked many pigs over the years with great success on my pull behind rotisserie pig cooker. I always skinned the pig, injected, and applied rub inside and out and the hog turned out awesome every time. Juicy and full of flavor. I just sold the rotisserie and bought a Meadow Creek TS250...
