Based on the way my wife vs I eat wings, I took spares tonight and trimmed them up St. Louis style. I'll use some of the trimmings in the beans, but the rest of the cartilage filled bits will be my afternoon snack :D I'm totally ok with that, and can't wait until tomorrow.

I'm doing spareribs tomorrow, and trimmed the cryovac to st. louis style. The 3 racks rolled will (hopefully) fit on the top rack of the wsm, and my beans will go on the bottom. I want to put some of the scraps in the beans, but I'm not sure if I should put them in raw, or smoke them first...

Those are some great looking ribs!

Nice and tasty looking. I've got ribs in the fridge for my first attempt at smoking some spares. I like the idea of glazing with honey and bbq sauce.

Man that looks good. We have tri-tip at our local grocery store, but it's $14.99/lb...

Looks great. I've got some country style ribs in the freezer. We don't have a penzey's here, but I'm sure I can make some sort of rub to try. 2.5 hours total for the ribs?

After reading only a couple pages (not all 28) last night before bed, I had decided that I needed to try my attempt at No. 5 sauce. I started the sauce shortly after putting a half dozen chicken thighs on my redhead one touch. I followed the measurements as best I could. I added a little...

As I am a stay-at-home-Dad, sometimes I have to get my grilling fix whenever I can get it. My son, Marshall, feel asleep at noon, on our way home from the library. Naps usually last about 2.5 hours, so I knew low and slow was out, but I had planned ahead and pulled some chicken thighs out of...

Sounds like you're ready for some tasty pork. Apple and hickory sound fine. Keep a journal of how things go, or at least take some pictures. And don't forget to post the results. Have fun and welcome!

Thanks for posting the details. I'll be sure to look for this post for when I do my first brisket. Is there a specific clay saucer everyone gets? Is there a different one for old vs. new WSM or 18.5 vs 22.5"? Thanks!

I don't think my marriage would survive if I brought only one of those over... That is one fantastic looking steak!

The purple ones turn green when cooked, so they are best raw. I had never had the copper colored ones before. Not sure if they're just older red ones, but they were tasty (I had a couple with some chorizo tacos tonight) Thanks for the kind words. I'll be sure to take more photos in future cooks.

I got a deal on sweet peppers at the Farmer's Market last Thursday, and had a chance to take care of them this morning. I washed them well while the charcoal was lighting up in the chimney. I brushed them with vegetable oil, and put them on the grill on direct heat. I turned them a...

One of my local joints does a sweet-hot wingsauce. They start with franks and melted butter, but then add a lot of sugar. I don't know the measurements, but once you whisk in the frank's hot sauce, start adding sugar and tasting. I've made it before using sugar that has old vanilla beans...

I grabbed a free weber kettle grill tonight off the curbside of the road. It's a early '90's 3 daisy wheel kettle in pretty rough shape. I was hoping to restore it, but once I got it home, I was able to look at it closer, and realized that it may be too far gone. The biggest concern is that...

Rob: I've cooked 3 times on my WSM. Twice I've done pork. I've followed the following recipes: Mr.Brown and then Chris Lilly I followed the recipes for the most part, but substituted here and there a little on the rub. For smoke times, read through the recipes for some ideas on how long to...

new dumbest mistake (made today while I was shredding the pork inside) Allowing friends to discuss politics at the table.

Does anyone do anything with it once it's removed from the pork butt? Render it? Cook it and feed it to the dogs? I always try to use every part of the animal when I cook.

dumbest bbq mistake I've made so far (one cook in) : leaving the pork to rest where the dog can reach it...
