    Pick and choose?

    Exactly right Mike, I meant he would probably end up in last place overall, his ribs and chicken could very well finish in first place.

    Apple, birch, or white oak to smoke bacon

    I happen to be one of those guys that thinks pork cries out for hickory. LOL But it's also easy to use too much hickory. The majority of my smokes are with 2 chunks of hickory, 2 chunks of apple and 1 chunk of cherry. Cherry gives a great color to the meat, but it can make it dark if too much is...

    Pick and choose?

    Are you talking about a regular KCBS sanctioned BBQ comp? If so, you can, BUT you'll still pay the same entry fee as the other competitors who are cooking all 4 meats and if you cook only two you'll end up in last place. By way of a suggestion you might want to look for some rib burns or...

    access panel knob replacement

    Jay, I just replaced my door knob with a compression latch and it works great. No more worries about the knob getting stripped or breaking during mid-cook. Here's a link to the thread. http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?45886-Fixed-door-handle-replaced-with-compression-latch

    I want to go to the Jack in 2014

    Chris, I have been there several times hanging out with teams from our association who got "the call" As far as airports, I don't know I usually drive down, but I'm assuming Nashville as it's only about a 1 1/2 hour drive from there. As like any other comp set up is going on Friday, there is...

    Brining Question? Butterball Turkey

    Paul, I had two Butterball Turkey's for Thanksgiving, both stated, "minimally processed, contains 8% solution..." I brined both of them for nearly 16 hours using Oakridge Game changer Brine and they turned out excellent. In fact, I think two of the best birds I've ever cooked.

    Take a break from competing?

    I think a lot of it has to do with the money also. I mean it's no longer let's go cook some BBQ and see our friends, have a good time, and if we get a call great, if not, we still had a great time. Now with the money that's involved in some of these comps, and with so many people offering BBQ...

    Take a break from competing?

    Russ, I understand completely where you're coming from. I just finished my 9th year doing competition BBQ and while I still enjoy it, it get's more difficult with every comp to rekindle that fire and give it my all. I don't know how old you are but I will be turning 60 in January and I'm sure...

    injection recipe

    If I inject, I usually use 1 stick of melted butter and 1 cup of low sodium chicken stock. Butter makes everything taste better! :)

    Recommendations for purchasing brisket online

    Joshua, I love brisket but there is no way I can justify spending the money for a brisket that I've seen on-line. Having said that, there is Snake River Farms, Strube Ranch, and Creekstone Farms that sell brisket on-line, with Creekstone Farms being the least expensive and USDA Prime. Snake...

    WSM in a shed.

    I use mine in my attached garage, just inside the fully opened garage door near the SW corner and a slightly opened access door in the NE corner, and have done so for the last 11 years.
