    Pork loin is under-rated!

    I make at least one piece of pork loin every month on my Weber kettle rotisserie. Today's victim is a half loin rubbed with some Kickin' honey rub and Jeff's rub... nothing better than doing nothing all day, after a long day of killing my liver yesterday for turkey day! Loin to 142°, tented...

    Thinking about adding to the arsenal

    Any recommendations on brick wood-fired pizza ovens? Thinking about getting one soon. There's a local hardscape place I want to check. Just figured I'd ask the experts here if anyone has a kit they'd recommend. Thanks in advance!!

    Lazy Labor Day...

    After enjoying the long weekend a little bit too much, figured today would be a lazy day to sit on the deck, enjoy the beautiful breeze, cook on the grill, and enjoy a few lower ABV beers... Spinning a rack of BB's over a pan of homemade beans on the kettle. Have some pasta salad made up and...

    Free Pork and Beer!!!

    Did some dirt work for my mom's neighbor a while ago. I didn't want any payment because the machine was already there so it didn't cost me anything but some fuel and time. Anyway... she knows I like to cook and knows I love beer (LOL) so she dropped off some pork and beer at my mom's for me...

    2nd run at rack of lamb

    I made a rack of lamb a few weeks ago on the kettle and it turned out great! So for Sunday Funday I took another rack for a spin on the rotisserie. Simple rub I picked up from a local butcher and then spun over lump charcoal and pecan wood for about 45 minutes. Pulled at 129° and it was...

    Glenn's Smokers

    Hi All I see there's only one old thread about Glenn's Smokers and it doesn't have much response. I'm looking into jumping into a stick burner and his stuff looks really nice and reasonably priced. Just wondering of any members have one if his cookers? Thus far, all the responses I've...

    From disaster to triumph

    Today is a day of appetizers for the NFL playoffs at T4. One item was to be pork shots. I mixed up some rub and cream cheese. Cut up some local sausage, and then... The bacon I got was complete junk. It was supposed to be thick cut but I'm pretty sure I couuld have read the newspaper...

    Laughing my stupidity...

    Harman Stove Tiles

    Does anyone know where I can get custom tile inserts for the ash door on my Harman? The covered bridge set I have now are great, but I want something a bit more "me".

    PPE - Use it!

    As the book of Tim's best moments in life continues to be written... Tonight's chapter is a stretch even for me. I bought a Harman Super Magnum coal stove off my buddy. He told me that the easiest way to light it is to light some lump charcoal with the MAPP gas torch then when it's burning...

    The Biggest Mess?

    What is the biggest mess you've ever made while cooking? I've outdone myself today. Was getting ready to make some chili and needed my big Dutch oven to hang over the fire. Last weekend I was frying wings in it so it had about 2+ gallons of oil in it yet. I picked up not realizing the handle...

    Cellaring your beer stash

    What does everyone have tucked away in their beer fridge crisper drawer for a rainy day? I just picked up a 2018 Founders Curmudgeon's Better Half that my local bottle shop has a barrel of that they aged since August of last year. My only comments are... Wow! This is incredibly smooth...

    Friday Night Simple Meal & Semi-Big Beers

    Nothing better than a simple meal and cold drinks after a long day at work. Tonight it's cheesesteaks and "Semi-Big beers" (8-9% abv). Fired up some lump in the kettle and got to grilling up some peppers and onions in the Weber Wok. I'm really liking this grilling system! While they're...

    Taking Some Chicken for a Spin

    The mother in law got me a new toy for my kettle. Breaking it in with yardbird, basic rub, and pecan wood. I think I'm going to like this contraption..

    Tim's Birthday Party... A week Late...

    Last Saturday I had planned on a cookout at my house but then Mother Nature said let's turn the oven up to about 95° with a ton of humidity.... So... I don't have a pool but my friend does, so I invited myself to his house with the promise of some food for the grill. Little did he know.... I...

    Boy... girl... Guess we'll see tomorrow...

    So my vegan sister in law (who likes my brisket) is having a gender reveal party tomorrow. Yours truly was volun-told I needed to make PP. And we're off... Rubbing butts and enjoying a local beer from Bonsai Brewing in Hegins PA. Two hours rubbed in plastic wrap in the fridge and we're...

    Does Alexa help you?

    So I got a dot with Alexa about a year ago. I've relocated it now out to my cooking area. I like the timer function. I know there are a million other timers out there but when the music stops, it gets attention. As I am getting older, I've started using a Thermopop instant read too. I'm...

    Tree ID App?

    Anybody have a good tree identification app that can work with a picture of a leaf? I tried a few but they all require you to scroll through a hundred leaf pictures. I'm lazy and would prefer to take a picture of the leaf then let Skynet tell me what kind of tree it is. Since I seem to have...
