I've been searching for the Holy Grail of cheeseburger's for longer than I care to think about. I think back and remember the best one's from the old greasy spoon's I used to frequent. Perhaps time and old age clouds my memory, but I remember the old burgers with great fondness about the...

Neil, thanks for the recipe. Most people prob won't know about Cheerwine (we called it Cherrywine growing up) because it's a local soft drink, but if they ever find it, they should try it. I'll try out this sauce soon. Ben

Southern sweet tea is very simple to make. I make it a couple times a week. Bring 1/2 gal. of water to a boil. Add 3 Lipton Family size tea bags. Cut off the heat to the water and let the tea steep for 30-45 minutes. Remove the tea bags and add sugar to your liking while the tea is still...

This is my favorite! I have searched and tried a lot of pecan pie recipes, but this one has greater flavor and is less sweet than most you'll find. Most recipes are so sweet, you'll have a sugar overload before finishing the slice. With this one, you'll want another piece! This one is from a...

Hi Travis, yep, I've eaten at Hillbilly's quite a few times, and enjoyed it every time I've gone there. I must admit I haven't been there in a while, since finding this site and making my own. Mike B., I hate to hear that. I wonder if they were tipped off and gave him special treatment, even...

Not to start a fight, but found this today. Haven't been there yet, but now I'll have to go! THE `GRILL MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE' HAS SPOKEN Queen City boasts the king of brisket Ouch, that proclamation's gotta hurt deep in the heart of Texas HELEN SCHWAB Restaurant Writer JASON E...

Quesadilla Burger After seeing a national restaurant chain come out with this, it looked so good I had to prepare a homemade version. This also uses a chipotle mayo recipe from Bryan S. (which I modified slightly to keep it thicker), which is great! Thanks Bryan. Use a BIG spatula to turn...

I don't know about this for burgers, but it sounds like a pretty good meatloaf!

There's a big discussion about this on the txbbqrub.com forum. Lot's of old traditional smoking vs. the new "quick" smoking. Or some say boiling/baking vs. real smoking. I see it as another opportunity to fix up a smoked butt ONLY if you don't have the time to smoke one low and slow. It...

Definitely this one! Texas BBQ Rub

As long as we're wishing, I want a table that will hold a WSM and a 22.5" kettle, sort of like you see with the Big Green Egg's, with space in between for prep and removing hot food from the grills to take inside. Table should have a lower shelf all the way across the bottom to hold accessories...

Went to the local convenience store that happens to sell some of the best Black Angus steaks I've ever had, and what do I find? Store is under new management, and in looking in the display case, I see cryovac'd boston butts, FULL packers, Tri-Tip and practically anything else you'd want...

Tricia, try this one. I've been through dozens of sauces, homemade and store bought, and everyone always likes this one the best. It's a cross between Lexington Style and Western Style NC BBQ, used mainly for pulled pork. Recipe Name: BEN'S BBQ SAUCE Ingredients: 1 c apple cider vinegar 1 c...
