I had to send it back to Rock's BarBQ once after I messed up a firmware update, and they told me it was one of the first batch of Stokers ever built, so it is old. It has outlived the company that built it and shows no sign of slowing down. With the Stokerlog app that was written by a gentleman...

So I cooked some ribs.

I'm no expert, but I use the "hot fire in the center of the kettle, wings cooked indirect" method. The wings are dusted with my own rub, and cooked for about 30 minutes, flipped over about halfway through. A little bit of wood (usually a handful of maple twigs I pick up in the yard) add some...

Amazing!

A little boneless ribeye, with yellow squash and green beans from the raised bed in our back yard. Dessert will be home made brownies. I love grilling! Grilled 3 minutes per side over B&B lump, with a handful of maple twigs for a little smoke flavor. Grill marks courtesy of the Killa Grilla s/s...

The first slices of my brisket were a little dry. I'm hoping the center will be more juicy. Tomorrow it will be reheated and served with corn on the cob, Cole slaw, baked beans, and cantaloupe, with cake for dessert.

I found a brisket flat in the freezer, so it's on the smoker now. Due to threat of rain I was in such a hurry that I didn't get any pics, other than this one of me carrying the brisket to the WSM. (I'm testing a prototype of a new security camera, so the manufacturer and model number have been...

...and two straws.

I ordered mine this morning. I took my 10-year shirt out of the vault for its annual public exhibition/adoration and found that it has mysteriously shrunk, so it's time for a new one.

I imagine that's what mine would look like if I gave the outside a thorough cleaning.

Dark green to match my kettle. But not that yellow-green (Spring Green?).

Not pets, exactly, but we have an undetermined number of eastern box turtles in our back yard.

A quick read of this article and I can give you the Cliff's Notes version: "Avoid these steaks because I don't know how to cook them." I can't wait for the author's next article on Italian sports cars: "Ferraris and Lamborghinis You Should Avoid".

I got this Presto a while back and have really enjoyed it. Your deal is like a $10 WSM, I've always hoped to see one but never really expected to. Like EricV, I use Krusteaz, but in my quest to duplicate the waffles I used to get at hotel continental breakfasts I have been experimenting with...

Ketchup, used mostly (sparingly) on french fries, but also as a base for bbq sauce (for ribs) and cocktail sauce for seafood (ketchup, horseradish, dash of hot sauce, Worcestershire, and lemon juice).

I noticed that but didn't question it. Also, no sales tax back then.

My WSM, not me. At 2003 prices I should have bought more than one.

Maple is good with poultry.

The only time I ever bought a turkey that size - to get the special sale price - I had the guy at the store cut it in half, and I wrapped and froze it like two small turkeys. But that was years ago, when grocery stores still had meat departments that cut their steaks and made ground beef.

Wait... you mean they didn't name the bank for James Brown's birthday?
