I agree with Russ also. If you have fun making it and it tastes good, then knock yourself out. Half the experience is making something yourself and putting your own unique twist on it. Half the time we all use pretty generic ingredients, just time shared with friends or even enjoying a peaceful...
I know Moore's BBQ sauce from New Bern is great, and I have an order coming from Hawk Sauce BBQ but haven't tried it yet. Both of these are authentic sauces based in Eastern North Carolina and they both ship.
I have a MES 30 electric smoker for the low steady temps required for sausage making, a faithful 22.5 kettle for everything, and just got a 18.5 WSM for more rib capacity. Oh, almost forgot my portable Jumbo Joe for when I head out camping or guest grilling!
I went to HD this morning and got nothing. It's still $20 for a two pack. I just saw a sale paper for Lowe's and it's in there, also saw that Tractor Supply has Royal Oak twin packs for $9.99. I'm definitely there tomorrow!
Just saying hello, great forum you have here. I love Weber products. I use my kettle for everything! I like to make ribs, pork butt and wings mostly but always enjoy getting ideas from like minded people. I look forward to participating here.
I like the Bronzeville Rib Rub from the Spice House. They have really fresh spices but this is the only blend I have tried from them. www.thespicehouse.com
