    Brisket on a stick burner

    Here is a couple pics of a brisket on my Shirley Fabrication smoker/cooker. I've never cooked solely with wood alone. Let me first give a few pics of my cooker. The craftsmanship and quality in the cooker are amazing!

    Jeff's; cream cheese, jalapeño - chicken, wrapped in bacon

    Brined chicken for 6 hours (we had stuff to do). I used 2 big jalapeños per package of cream cheese. I also added 1 teaspoon of rub for each package. We were lucky to score flattened, tenderized chicken breast from the local butcher. I seasoned, stuffed and wrapped. They will rest for 2-3 hours...

    New method for ribs

    I've been trying new techniques. All the BBQ rubs I've tried haven't satisfied me. I found that I really don't like paprika which is escencially a main ingredient in a lot of rubs. When cooking ribs you don't taste the rub at the end, especially if you do the 3,2,1 method. I went back to a basic...

    Cold smoking cheese in the Weber kettle

    I put the A-Maze-N pellet smoker under the charcoal tray then put the Smokenator in place. I layered foil on the open part of the charcoal tray then I put a tray of ice on top of the foil. This is usually how I use the Smokenator with hot smokes, minus the A-Maze-N. I'm using apple pellets and...

    Pork in the Electric Smoke Hallow.

    I usually smoke on my Weber but it couldn't keep up with me. So, back to my trusty electric. I got 6 nice sized shoulders on sale for $0.99/pound.

    Brisket, chicken and baked beans!!

    Got a nice sized brisket from my local butcher. The price wasn't horrible. I've seen cheaper but this is a quality brisket. I'm planning an overnight smoke, Friday into Saturday. I'll pick up some whole chickens after work on Friday along with all the ingredients for some baked beans. Brisket...

    First attempt at "competition" chicken

    I took chicken thighs, deboned then pulled the skin off. I scrapped the back side of the skin with a sharp knife to remove the fat. All the skins were almost see through. I seasoned the meat with a rub, placed the skin back on and re-seasoned. I then placed the chicken in three pans with...

    Becoming a KCBS judge...

    Is anyone here a KCBS judge? KCBS is offering a class next weekend near me. I would like to enter a few close by competitions in a year or so and think this would be great experience moving in that direction.

    Tired of this snow, ice & cold!!

    Getting ready for warmer days. Took delivery of a face cord each of cherry and hickory. We needed firewood so they served a dual purpose. This should be enough cooking wood and firewood for the next year.

    Brisket on the Weber 26/Smokenator 2600!

    Freezing temperatures outside and I'm planning a brisket smoke tomorrow night into Saturday afternoon. This a true addiction. Good deal on a PRIME brisket for only $4.39/lb. The choice briskets were actually $2.50 more per pound. Even with the the good price it's still $60. There has been...

    Ribs on the fly.

    Woke up late, sat around drinking coffee watching You Tube videos of expensive stick burning smokers. I really have a problem! Around 1pm I thought I should put all this studying to use. My wife gets off at 8pm and I better have dinner. Happy wife, happy life! Ran to the store and picked up 5...

    PapaDon on a diet!?

    I've lived a very glutinous lifestyle, especially recently. I got extremely overweight and developed type II diabetes. My turning point was December 12th, 2014. The day I was diagnosed with a blood sugar of 317. Since that day I have lost 60 pounds and got my sugars under control. I'm running...

    PapaDon's BBQ

    I've always dreamed about having a restaurant, especially a BBQ restaurant. Meanwhile, in reality, my oldest daughter graduated highschool this year and my wife planned a party next weekend. With money tight, it was assumed that I was making the main course. We've had parties before but it's...

    Can you smell that?!

    Injected, lathered with mustard and coated with rub. Wrapped in fridge at 9pm last night, placed on my Weber 26" kettle with smokenator at 6:30 this morning. I used apple and hickory for the first 4-5 hours (around 6 chunks total) I've been spritzing with apple juice every hour. Running the...
