    PartyQ AC adapter mod for less than 10 bucks

    I love my PartyQ, but like so many others, I wished it has an alternate power supply built in. I borrowed this idea from someone else, so I can't take full credit, but here's the process for anyone interested. It's really simple and inexpensive. The fan runs on half an amp, so I purchased a...

    Minion Method Methods..

    I've been trying to think of ways to maximize the efficiency of the Minion method, but don't want to waste the charcoal to test them, so I'll turn to the experts. My go-to method is to put a layer of unlit in the ring, add a few chunks of wood, fill the ring the rest of the way with unlit and...

    Restaurant Quality

    Hi Dave! I loved watching you cook alongside Brad Orrison on Best in Smoke. I think you guys should've won. Anyway, my question is, do you think mass producing barbecue, like in a restaurant setting, negatively affects the quality as opposed to cooking small batches? And how do you combat this...

    Thick cut pork chops

    That's what I was told at the Stop and Shop I go to, but who knows where they get it.. Nah, not a Weber. I cooked these on my crappy barrel grill I picked up at Target a few years back for 50 bucks. For these, I just cooked them on the stovetop. I was always told "boil the water, not the...

    Thick cut pork chops

    Just a quick cook from last night. Found some really thick chops at the grocery store. Brined for 10 hours while I was at work and sprinkled with McCormick's Mesquite seasoning. (I tried to use the lighter as a reference to show the thickness since I didn't have a ruler handy) On the grill...

    80 year old butt...

    I like it a lot. I've used it once before and definitely notice a difference in the butts I didn't inject. I like to make the injection a day or two before and let the flavors develop in the fridge.

    80 year old butt...

    Yeah it worked out great. The only thing I don't like is that it's strictly battery operated. I would like the option to use an AC adapter instead. Or at the very least a backup power supply in case the batteries die mid way through the cook. This went for 14 hours and the batteries lasted the...

    80 year old butt...

    Oh I almost forgot. I love the PartyQ, if you don't have one, I highly recommend. I had even temps all night without having to fiddle with it at all. Best sleep I ever got on an overnight cook!

    80 year old butt...

    My grandfather turned 80 on Saturday, so I decided what better way to celebrate than with pork. It also gave me a chance to try out my new PartyQ for the first time. I found a 9 pounder for pretty cheap at Wegman's. Injected with Chris Lilly's championship injection, and rubbed with the Mr...

    Better briquettes?

    I just went to K Mart on my lunch break and they definitely have it again. $6.50 per bag, can't beat it.

    Better briquettes?

    Hey Peter, The K Mart near me sells Royal Oak briquettes which I really like, cheap too. They haven't had any for a while, which I'm hoping is because they're selling it seasonally. Now that spring is here, I'm going to check if they're stocking it again. Hopefully you can find some near you.

    Don't bother resting your meat?

    Now that's an idea. It's about time a tvwbb video series was started.

    Don't bother resting your meat?

    Interesting read. I'm interested on what you all think. I usually don't rest my steaks, but i'm going to stick with resting my large cuts.. http://amazingribs.com/tips_and_technique/mythbusting_resting_meat.html

    My water pans never runs dry...

    I have an 18 and i usually fill the pan with hot water. I've always had water left in the pan, even after over nighters. I do cook relatively low though, usually never hotter than 250.

    Bourbon Chicken

    Does anyone have a Bourbon Chicken recipe that mirrors the same stuff you get at the Asian place in the mall foodcourt? I've tried a few recipes I've found online, and it just isn't right. I've looked for it on here, but haven't had much luck. Man I love that stuff. I wouldn't be opposed for a...
