    Eat Your Spice Rack

    I made bacon a couple times with szechuan pepper. Real good. https://honest-food.net/sichuan-bacon/ Recipe is based on a Fuchsia Dunlop recipe. She got some great cookbooks to her name, but the best is a non-cook book "shark fin and sichuan pepper"

    Possibly the last warm day of the foreseeable future?

    Can I send you guys some degrees? I could do with lower temps here (Today's expected high is 110 F)

    I buy my spices whole, so they keep a long time. But I'll play anyway: How 'bout Szechuan pepper....

    What's on tap/brew schedule?

    I celebrate all beers all year long (Sorry all, as a non American, I know of thanks giving & christmas, but clueless about the others). Anyway, I got a fermentation fridge going (finally) and brewed a Belgian blonde with MJ47. Then, yesterday, I decided to do a quick Kveik wheat beer as we are...

    First pork shoulder smoke—too large?

    Zip lock or other plastic bags also work. Just squeeze out as much air as you can and eat it a bit quicker ;)

    Eat Your Spice Rack

    Correct :) Well, I had it, but threw it out as it had gone to dust. But since I got sumac and sesame seeds, I just make it when needed. I don't use it often though

    Trouble controlling and measuring temperature

    Like Chris said.... My first couple of cooks, I kept checking temperature at the lid, and in the wsm & inside the meat. These days, I just use the thermometer in the lid. And I don't care much if it fluctuates. Most meat is allowed to sit between 100 & 125 oC (212 & 260) Under 100 (212 F), I...

    Possibly the last warm day of the foreseeable future?

    @Steve Hoch : Just a wee little remark about centigrade and logic. 100 oC = boiling water (212 F) 0 oC = freezing point (32 F) And then I stop ;) As generally, what makes sense to someone is very often were brought up with. Anyway, Southern Hemisphere, so no winter here. But is has cooled down...

    Possibly the last warm day of the foreseeable future?

    It will be around 32-34 here today. BUT centigrade :) So around 90 for the metrically challenged. Rainy season has started, but not serious yet, so quickly doing some concrete work and waterproofing. Other than that: time to plant more veges

    BBQ/Grilling Cookbooks

    Sure, and each to their own. I am in a different position than most and cannot always get all ingredients, so subbing is a necessity. On top of that, I got access to ingredients that may be difficult to find for others (as I grow some of them, or use them often enough to go out of my way to...

    WSM bowl for grilling

    I use my 14.5 for grilling all the time. No issues. Just all vents fully open, that's all. I need to add that I do not always use the cover. Just for chicken when I think it goes to fast. Other than that I use the WSM as an open grill
