    Attended the Inaugural RibFest in Elkhorn, Wisconsin

    Sorry Jim that you did not like the event. It was a first year event and they have a few kinks to work out. The BBQ vendors were competing against each other for best ribs, chicken, pork and brisket and overall best in a people's choice but there was no sampling so it was a strange format...

    Super Bowl "Pork Shots"

    I saw a recipe for Pork Shots a few days ago and I thought what a perfect app to bring to a Super Bowl party. The recipe I saw called for sliced Kielbasa sausage wrapped in bacon filled with a cheese mixture then topped with brown sugar. I don't care much for sweet meat so I did a variation...

    Competition Spare Ribs

    First I would ask how do you measure your cooking temperature, by dome gauge or at the grate? The difference can be as much as 25 - 50 degrees. When I compete in KCBS comps, I cook my ribs at 250 for 5 - 5 1/2 hours without foil. They may come out darker than if you foiled them, but the...

    Halloween Brisket Cook

    Quick update.....Fighting higher than wanted temps between 265-270 cant seem to get to my target temp of 250. I think I added to much wood at the start which may have ignited more coals sooner.

At 225 cooking temp it only took 2 hours to get an internal temp of 150, but it took 4 hours wrapped in foil to raise the internal temp just 55 more degrees??? I understand there is a temp stall, but usually that is...
