    I picked up another one touch platnium today

    I gave it to him yesterday and he loved it. Gave him a bag of charcoal and a chimney to go with it. Its a very nice grill, not in new condition, but still looks good.

    I picked up another one touch platnium today

    I suppose this may not be the right place for me to post this but wanted to tell you about my new/used one touch. I actually bought ikt for my dad who is a big weber gas grill fan and though loves the idea of having a charcoal grill, has never owned one. This one showed on on CL for $30 and I...

    Competition, buy one get one free

    Winn dixie gave me a raincheck for buy one get one free on Nature's Hardwood Briquets a month or so ago. I went back to see if they had them back in stock and the mgt said no but offered to allow me to pick another charcoal under the same terms. I was surprised to see they had the kingsford...

    What size butt?

    I've always purchased larger butts to make sure i have enough meat for the crowd, but have struggled aat times to finish on time. Last cook, I purchased two 5lb butts to reduct cook time. Is there an optimal size butt or put another way, is there a size that is too small to produce juicy and...

    St. Louis ribs at Target $1.49

    Yes, just looked, the label said up to 12% of patented solution to preserve juiciness and tenderness. how does this hurt the quality vs. unehanched? edit: just just a quick search and saw something about a ham taste. that's disappointing.

    St. Louis ribs at Target $1.49

    not sure if they are in other places, but in florida, Target was advertising $1.49/lb st. louis style cryovac ribs by hormel. Had the wife stop by and pick me up a few packs and plan to cook some this weekend. I got a pile of ribs for $5/slab, lots of meat.

    New Briquette, 100% hardwood

    Has anyone used this product, and if so, what's the verdict? I've seen virtually nothing posted about it other than a short clip on the Smoke Ring by one person. The website is Naturesgrillingproducts.com and the product I am referring to specifically is their 100% hardwood briquette. The...

    Brisket Rub?

    I am going to give a brisket a try using the low/slow, overnight. Perhaps risky for a novice (3rd wsm smoke) but i've bought the meat and it is time to cook, though i've considered freezing it until i get more practice. May do high heat but prob not. anyway, what rubs do you recommend for...

    2nd cook on wsm, experimenting with new fuel

    Phil, i/ve seen this site, but it is mostly lump, isn't it? I find virtually nothing on briquettes. so far, I've run the 6lbs of nature's grilling for 5.5 hrs and it has been terrific. again, the problem is, i don't have enough experience with others to make a comparision, but vs. the RO...

    2nd cook on wsm, experimenting with new fuel

    I'm tackling my second cook on the new wsm, st. louis style ribs. Had to take one pack back to winn dixie b/c it wasn't ribs, it was the flap from the ribs, yuk. While at winn dixie, i passed by the charcoal isle on accident, they were well stocked. I noticed a brand i've never seen, called...

    Ribeyes

    I went to winn dixie today, picked out a 17 lb ribeye loin and the asst meat mgr walked by. I asked him about the meat, which was stamped IBP Choice, and he said it was excellent. He then offered to trim and pkg the steaks for me, which was very surprising. It was early and they were slow...

    Kingsford Comp Briqs at Costco **Updated**

    I was in HD this morning picking up a few items and saw the competition, it just showed up in Orlando. I picked up the bag, considered it, but decided at $9 for 12 lbs, I'd skip it. Ended up finding 17lb bags of Kingsford Hickory on clearance at walmart for $5, so that's what i got. I've...

    Kingsford hickory

    I went to walmart today to get a back of RO briquettes and saw the kingsford hickory on clearance for $5, 17 lb bag so I bought a couple of them. Didn't really care whether i get much hickory or not, but they don't sell RO Briq at walmart and I needed something, couldn't beat the price. reg...

    Ribeyes

    I saw the same ad, and despite having a freezer completely full of meat, I will buy one of these. at $3.99/lb, i don't think you can beat it for Choice ribeye, bone in.

    Kingsford briquette vs. RO, I need to clarify something

    Regarding the Kingsford, I've read posts regarding the ash and the smell when using the MM. What is the bigger problem? Does the ash put the fire out or is it just annoying due to having to empty the bowl each time? As far as the odor, does it taint the meat flavor marginally or will most...

    Lump not recommended in WSM

    I think it burns hot, but novice uses of the wsm will likely end up like me, with a fire that burns inconsistently if you don't load it properly. I had terrible luck with the RO lump, but i've learned from my mistakes and should be ok next time around. I would not have had the same problems if...

    Lump not recommended in WSM

    As I attempt to learn how to use my new WSM and explore different fuel sources, I re-read the owners manual for the wsm and was surprised to see the comment that said "lump is not recommended". That was surprising as it seems nearly everyone favors lump over briquettes, but completely contrary...
