    Out of gas - what to do?

    Here in AZ, they charge less for 10 gallons or more. As I only have one tank, I don't know for sure, but I bet that with two tanks, I wouldn't get a break because they only fill them to 4ish. So I would really need to get three additional tanks My wife will love that Actually I am...

    Out of gas - what to do?

    A little bit of a rhetorical question. Last weekend, I was grilling and ran out of gas. Not really a big deal, I just fired up the charcoal grill Anyway, my internal debate is whether I should get a second tank, or just continue with one? I haven't had the grill too long, but it seems like...

    How'd you get into barbecue? *****

    I have no idea on when my dad got a kamado, but it was probably a housewarming present from my grandparents when he bought his first house around 1976. It was just there. It was a fairly large red/green one on a wooden, wheeled platform. I remember that plastic had cracked and it really never...

    Question about beef ribs

    So I smoked some beef ribs for the first time on Sunday for Father's Day. As outlined in the above post, they turned out pretty well. The only thing that was kind of a disappointment was the membrane. I pulled off a membrane, there was a layer of fat and then something that looked like...

    New old or new new gasser?.

    Mine is set up like the second image. I don't remember what year it is, I think 2008. I would prefer the first arrangement. The funny thing is that when I use my OTG, I bank all the coals in the back. One more good thing about the gas grill is the larger grill area. I can cook more food on...

    New old or new new gasser?.

    I bought a Genesis 310 off of CL about 6 months ago. To be honest, I don't really like it. It is convenient, but perhaps I haven't learned how to control the temps properly. I find that it doesn't get hot enough for direct grilling, and it doesn't really work well for indirect. In fact, I...

    Did my first smoke, now I have some questions

    Thanks guys. Mostly looking for confirmation. The only thing that was of real concern/surprise was the vents. I wish they were like those on the kettle that I could close all the way. Tomorrow I'm going to do some beef ribs. Thanks, Brett

    Did my first smoke, now I have some questions

    So I received my wsm on Wednesday. Its been sitting on my back porch until today. I decided to do some chicken on it, so the goal was to come home from work, assemble it, and smoke some chickens. I had hoped to be smoking by 5, but I didn't get home until 4:15. I had it assembled by 4:45 and...

    Is a Butcher better than the Supermarket?

    They don't have them here I have just gone to Fry's (Kroger's) in the past and get the Choice. I've avoided Costco, just because I am usually overwhelmed when I go there. I'll have to start to try some butcher shops. Now I just have to find them ... Thanks, Brett

    Gas BBQ explosion

    I am not a fire fighter, but my dad was. He told me long ago (shattering the imagination of a 10 year old), that most things don't actually explode. A fireball is not uncommon, but things don't actually go flying apart that often. That is not to say that you shouldn't worry about gas leaks...
