Thanks for the awesome recipe Doug. I used 12oz of hickory smoked mushrooms and since I was out of onion flakes I used dried shallots. If was a party hit... It was also absolutely delicious on a toasted bagel for breakfast the next day.

I love football parties cause I don't have to deal with side dishes. I cook the meat, supply the drinks and the guest bring the sides. My new love is Burnt ends, I can cook a full brisket on Saturday. Then, on Sunday, I just cube the brisket, toss it in the sauce and throw it on my kettle. Easy...

Fred, I actually ordered Pecan and Apple wood through Ingersole hardware online. You buy it and then pick it up at the store. I also have a friend that is a cabinet maker and he gives me leftover cherry wood once in a while.

I'm also a fat side down kind of guy. That's the only way I have ever cooked them and they always come out succulent.

I have never seen it labeled that way before. I have always seen Bottom Round roast. I use it to make beef jerkey sometimes. I usually buy the leanest cut that I find on sale. Half the time it's the bottom round. It has so little marbling that most people over cook it, hate it, and don't buy it...

I'm not hating on Pampered chef exclusively. I don't like the idea of those types of parties in general. Making all your friends and familly over pay so you can get big discounts isn't very kosher IMO. that being said they do have pretty good quality stuff. We have a grill basket from Pampered...

Congrats. I got the 18.5 a few months ago. I couldn't justify the 148$ difference to get the 22" smoker. So far It has been fantastic. I have yet to run out of room and my wife keeps pestering me to make another Turkey. I want another brisket! The stresses of married life.

Ahaha, I use an old marshmallow toasting fork to push around coals. I agree it works great, fits between the grates.

Ah yes, that's why the collective mind is always better. I totally forgot about the chimney starter. That is my starter of choice as well. The webber starter does work better. As for your original question, "..estimate their total dollar investment in the first month? First year?" I already...

Hey Bill, Honnestly the only thing you really need is a good thermometer and your smoker Charcoal and wood chunks. If you own any kind of grill you should have everything else you need. Thongs, spatulla, foil, oven mitt and cooler. Pretty much everything else you get will be more of a want...

So my wife goes to a Pampered chef party at the neighbors house the other night. She asks me to stop in towards the end cause she wants to see if I see anything I could use. Well I just couldn't get over all the cutting gadgets they try to tell us we must have. The perfect tomato slicer,egg...

I guess it would work for making linguini. I don't really make pasta so it's still useless to me. As soon as I saw that flavor shaker I thought, " that thing must make a heck of a mess when it has oil and herbs all over the insides.

I was going through my gadget drawer and came across the most useless item I have ever received as a gift. It's an herb chopper just like this one. herb cutter This thing is not sharp so it doesn't cut herbs at all. It just mashes the precious herbs into your cutting board. I looked at it for...

If you want a simple and amazing sticky & spicy wing sauce try this recipe form Larry Wolfe. http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/...2#750107672]Sriracha wings[/URL] I have made them for a crowd and trust me when I say you won't have any leftovers. I made a few modifications, I used pineapple...

Thanks guys, My main reason for posting was to try and upload a photo to the board. I had never heard of Scott's before either. Well, I had made pulled pork with a cider vinegar sauce and my wife loved it. My boss put two and two together and brought this sauce in for me to try. Needless to...
