This is my first try at the Pepper Stout Beef reciped made famous by Larry Wolfe. Started with a 3 lb chuck eye roast seasoned with S&P: Loaded it onto the WSM with some Hickory and a left over pecan chunk from Thursday: Pull it at 165. Good thing because a wicked storm rolled through 5...

I stopped at a farmers market today to pick up some goodies. I grabbed some tomatoes, corn and zuccini. I need some protein for dinner so I decided to make some shrimp. I cleaned up some 26-30s but left the shells on because we're gonna smoke 'em. Seasoned them up with some olive oil and...

Hi everyone. Made a simple dinner tonight, nothing too special, but I wanted to try out the new BB. We had some organic chicken sausage and a some leftover potatoes from the weekend. First on the grill was the onions and peppers: Next came the leftover potatoes fried up with some garlic...

Hi Everyone, It's been a while since I posted a cook. I didn't even plan to post one tonight, but we went shopping today for the vacation we start on Monday, when I found these: Yes, the elusive Chuck Eye Steak. Just stumbled upon them. Packing got put off until tomorrow and the cooking...

Hi All. It's been a while since I've been able to post anything. May got filled up with kids sports and then I went on a fishing trip to Canada. Each cabin at the lodge had an old beat up Weber so when we weren't eating fish we put it to good use. First, we caught some of these (this was the...

Hi Jaimie, Thanks for coming by and answering our questions! If you could choose only one type of wood to smoke with, what would it be and why? Mark

I grabbed a pack of pork loin chops at Costco today. They were about 1.5" thick. Brined them a bit this afternoon. Dryed them off and snapped this photo: Gonna grill 'em up quick and sauce 'em, and serve them with some fried potatoes and broccolette which is new to me (according to the...

My daughter was supposed to have a Jr. High soccer game after school and then club soccer practice tonight. Which means no family dinner was planned. But everything got rained out. We were too busy this weekend for me to cook something up for the family so I took the opportunity to throw...

Never tried this method of cooking chicken but it makes too much sense not to try. Started the late afternoon in a rain delay. Had to get the tarp out. Meanwhile, I relieved the bird of it's back and breast bones and marinated it in a "roadside-esque" marinade. After a few hours it got...

Had a taste for tacos today. I had a pork tenderloin in the freezer so I though I'd give al pastor a go. Here's what I had to work with. Made a marinade of rehydrated ancho and guajillo chiles, chipotle and the adobo sauce, roasted garlic and achiote. That went on the the pork which was...

Outdoor soccer season started today so we were plenty busy. Daughter had a game early this morning, won 4-2, and Dad (me) had a game before lunch, lost 2-3. I still have a few indoor games left including tonight. So we didn't have time for anything huge so we had a late lunch. Bought an old...

I picked up an older Genesis yesterday off CL locally for a good price. I'm not too familiar with the older grills, but the serial number starts with EH. So if it works the same as the charcoal grills, it's from 1994. It's in good shape. It's missing the flip up table and the previous...

My in-laws left this morning for their new house in Arizona so we had a nice family dinner at my house yesterday afternoon. A request was made for pulled pork sandwiches. Who was I to say no? The only problem is we wanted to eat at 4 PM so that means I was going to be up all night. Started...

Since Home Depot put the Kingsford on sale, I picked a good week to clean out the freezer. I got some organic boneless chicken thighs from Costco a couple weeks ago. I pounded them out a little and put a slice of ham, munster and basil leaf between two thigh pieces. I put the pieces...

Pork steaks are not a common cut around here, or I wasn't really paying attention until I saw some posts here. That's why I love this site! Anyway, I found some at Meijer so I picked up a package. I seasoned them overnite with a generic bbq rub I got at Caputo's. Then I added some Penzey's...

I just got this awesome Red Performer last night (see Charcoal Grill forum for the story). On my deck for now until I set up the patio. Of course I had to break it in today. With all of the great chicken posts this weekend I had a taste for chicken. So we went with some wings. Started by...

I've been looking around for a SS Performer for a little while but haven't had any luck. Until last night when I saw a CL listing for a red SS in the Naperville area. I sent an email and got a return email with a phone number to call. I talked to the seller who was selling this for his...

It's been a while since I've had a chance to cook outside, but today I made time. I didn't have a ton of time to cook a "major" on the WSM so we tried to decide between burgers or sausage. In the end I went with half ground beef, half Italian sausage burgers. 2 pounds of meat seasoned with...

We're having company this weekend and my wife asked me to do a meat that will look pretty when sliced, so I'm thinking of a rolled flank steak. I've made this before on the OTG but never on the WSM. Has anyone ever done something like this on the WSM? I'm concerned mainly about timing it...

I had big plans today. Was going to go out and find me some chuck eye steaks and a few sides and make a nice family dinner while we watch the Monkees marathon. Started at Costco, big crowds, no chuck eye steaks. So I grabbed these BBCSR: I hoped to fire up the WSM and OTG but it was cold...
