I'm hosting a gathering soon, and while the main course will be ribs, I'm looking for some grilled appetizer ideas to serve while the ribs are getting ready. ABTs, shrimp skewers, chicken wings, what else? What are your favorites, including vegan (yes...) ones?

so I haven't posted here for a couple years, but thought that you guys might appreciate this. :) I've recently moved to Amsterdam and I don't have a garden anymore, so "let's get mobile" I thought, and make use of all the public spots! Got my hands on an old cargo bike and rebuilt the wooden...

Ever since I did my first pig last summer, I've wanted to do it again, but this time on a rotisserie spit. Since I like to build things, I made a DIY spit and used the Weber rotisserie motor from my kettle. I figured that it theoretically should have enough torque, but doing a test drive first...

Like a lot of us, that's something near the top of our BBQ bucket lists, and since I had a gathering of friends coming up, it was the perfect opportunity. Got a small 12 kilos / 26 pounds pig from our local butcher, had it cut in two since I didn't have a rotisserie, rubbed it in spices and on...

Turned out rather nice and tasty. :)

Since I recently discovered the Bacon Explosion some time ago, I thought I would combine that with a "classic" Swedish dish called "Flygande Jacob / Flying Jacob". There might have been some alcohol involved during that thought process... The Flying Jacob dish was created in the early 70s as a...

I've always been jealous of the the gas starter in the Performer, so I decided to build my own... Not sure what the final version will be yet, might try to build it into the stone wall or so.

This is my first foray into curing and drying meats, but it's something that I've wanted for a long time. I recently received a book from a Saffa friend ("Make you own Biltong and Droewors") and it seemed simple enough. I started off with some simple cuts of beef from the supermarket...

Hi guys, I just discovered yesterday that the outside of my OTP kettle seems to have been damaged from the heat of the charcoals, since I basically always build the fire banked on that side of the kettle. The kettle is barely a year old, so I'm rather surprised by this. Is this a known problem...

Hi all, I've been using my OTG for quite some time now and have had very good results from smoking in the kettle (ribs, chicken, lamb), but I've now started to feel that well known itch called weberitis... So I'm pondering to get a WSM, but what are the real benefits to that over the kettle...

Hi all, I've been lurking here since I bought my 22.5" OTP some months ago, and finally decide to do some ribs properly. This was really my first attempt at low and slow, so I didn't expect much, more just a test to gain some experience. Living in the south of France, I haven't actually managed...
