    Butts over brisket advice

    - I wouldn't use the same rub. The recipes in the cooking section of this forum include rubs. Those are good starting points. - I don't think brisket holds particularly well in foil, probably best if you time it so the pork finishes an hour before the brisket. The pork will hold well. - I...

    Big Bob Gibson White Sauce

    we love this sauce, I first learned of it from a raichlen book and I find his recipe, which calls for heavy salt and pepper, high heat, a coat of vegetable oil halfway through to crisp up the skin really pairs well with the sauce. I've had the bbg branded sauce from a bottle and it's pretty good...

    Dougherty's Wings

    Barbecue restaurant oportunity

    I'm a big believer in doing what you love but this needs to be balanced by your financial responsibilities. Do you have kids? Does your wife work? How much money do you need to pay rent/mortgage? If it didn't work out, could you return to your apprenticeship? Would you be happier apprenticing...

    results of my first competiton

    Folks, I started this as a write-up for others looking to get their feet wet competing. It morphed into something much more personal, it's obviously too long, I'm not sure when I'll have time to edit it so decided to post it as is. Hopefully there are enough tips for the first timer to make the...

    cajun bandit vs. weber rotisserie vs. ?

    thanks george, I actually searched and posted in that forum. I've also read every thread on the all the forums with the words "cajun bandit". However, I've yet to see a side by side review of the two units or if there are any other alternatives. For example, it looks like ez-q sold their...

    Cajun Bandit Rotisserie vs Weber for Performer

I'm thinking about one of these too. - are these two brands the only game in town or are there other brands to consider? - I saw some posts on the advantages of cooking high heat with the rotis which would lead me to the kettle. Why...
