    Muffin Pan Chicken

    Thanks for the reply, I will do that just focusing on the skin only and see how it goes.  I don't mind the practice!  I think that around 175 done temp would be fine too for texture.  Here is the pan that I am using.     I drilled three holes in the bottom of each cup.  wonder if maybe its...

    Muffin Pan Chicken

    Hello,  I have been doing Mixon's muffin pan chicken except that its a mini loaf pan that works really well for thighs.  His recipe calls for 300 smoker temp 1.5 hours skin side down, then 45 minutes skin side up, return to smoker for 30 minutes.  I have been noticing that within an hour or so...

    Headed to Miron Mixon's school this weekend at his house!

    That sounds like a great experience and a whole ton of information to gather!  I noticed that you said there were about 65 people in attendance.  Was it easy to ask questions in that format?  Looks like you got plenty of attention from the pictures.  And PLENTY to EAT!

    Headed to Miron Mixon's school this weekend at his house!

    Excellent write up!  I am considering this class as well, I'm just debating on pulling the trigger.  Just the experience alone is amazing from what I can tell..  Ryan

    BBQ Classes

    Thanks for the link! That was allot of great information! It is very tempting for sure! The experience alone is worth the price of admission. How often will you get that type of opportunity/experience? Ryan

    BBQ Classes

    Well the one with Rod Gray in KC is $600 and to attend the one in GA with Myron Mixon is $750. So a pretty decent amount for a weekend class. Comparable to taking a class here at the U of Nebraska. But then again, BBQ is not usually the subject matter... =)

    What I find the most impressive are those who build their own pits, those are quite the invention of the mind!  I don't quite have those skills, so I'm always amazed at what people can build and put together for the purpose of smoking..

    BBQ Classes

    Hello,  Has anyone ever attended one of the classes put on by folks like Rod Gray and Myron Mixon?  They are a bit costly, but I am tempted to go to one for the experience of it..  but I have a hard time justifying a 1k weekend for a BBQ class.  Actually I can justify it, but my wife wouldn't...

    Always wonderful learning from a group that has been there and done that!  And the different styles of Q from all over the Country, makes for great insight into certain flavors or techniques that you have never tried around home..

    First try - success and questions

    I know that it's recommended to use  a 2-2-1 method with baby backs and the 3-2-1 with St Louis cut, but I have found that the 2-2-1 is plenty good for both in most cases.  I agree with the above, I put apple juice, squeeze butter and brown sugar into the foil pouch, it really gives it another...

    What are you drinking?

    Very nice looking batch of home brew!  I have looked at doing the Dead Ringer as well.  Right now I have a batch of the Lakefront Fixed Gear in the secondary.  That's my second Kit from Northern Brewer and have been very happy with the quality of their products.  Cheers' Ryan

    Smoking in those Aluminum pans?

    I have used the pans with good results and it does make for transferring/foiling the meats easier. I haven't used them for whole chickens but I'm tempted to try based on the amount of fats that come off the skin, but I'm not sure how good it would work out. Anyone tried that at all?

    Anyone have a Blaz'n Grill Works unit ?

    Thanks! I will check that out. I love the Blazn' you just can't beat the quality and overall "coolness" of this unit! Even with -5 degree temps, fired right up and smoked away. I need to look at the insulation kit for next winter though.

    New to smoking - need some basics

    I used to use a water pan every time with my vertical propane smoker. I noticed that Myron Mixon has a line of water smokers as well. So it must serve some type of purpose, but I've heard both sides too. I don't use one with the Blazn, but some folks do add a small foil pan witb water to those...
