    Difference in beef short ribs? Which do I have?

    Lot of those guys are glorified meat wrappers, since everything went to boxes they might not even know where on the cow they came from.

    Difference in beef short ribs? Which do I have?

    Sounds like you have the plate ribs, they come 4 bones to a pack and are usually cut down into short pieces and just called short ribs. If it's the BIG bones then thats what you got

    One rub to rule them all...? (Average Rub)

    Sort of like a chili contest I read about, Guy buys sample of all the contestants chili, mixes them all together , enters the averaged mix, and won first place. :D That mix looks about as good as most I've seen.

    Wood Chunk Question

    8-10" log ain't big :) If you positively can't find a wedge to split it, cut it into short rounds, maybe 3" thick, THEN split off chunks with your ax or hatchet. Start on the edges and work your way in.

    Lamb shanks?

    Never did lamb shanks, only had them braised in the Turkish places, but have smoked venison front shoulders. I just gave them a basic rub and cooked to an IT of about 145-150, on lamb shanks those being a tougher cut, I think I'd do the same then foil them for a finishing braise to tender. You...

    Smoked Oysters

    Landlubbers, sheesh, :cool: They're only bad if they are open when UNCOOKED, and they don't close when you tap on them, same with any shellfish. We put Hard clams on the grill and they open in a few minutes, that's roasted clams 101, oysters the same. Shellfish cooks fast. Down in the...

    Lodge Cast Iron Skillet - about ready to give it up!

    There's a difference between polishing, and smoothing, The old CI pans were ground smooth, just another part of the manufacturing process, they obviously felt it was important, and manpower was cheap. So Lodge is a little disingenuous, plus if they can save a step, they're production costs are...

    Shawn W got me thinking

    On the brisket tips thread, Shawn W made a argument for real slow for beef, and it reminded me of a feeling I've had about brisket. Way, way back when brisket was first being barbecued, Brisket was a tough practically worthless cut, that the German butchers in Texas figured out that long ,slow...

    Savory Rib Rub

    I've been using Meatheads recipe lately and I don't find it sweet at all, yes it has both brown and white sugar in it, but at the amounts he suggests to put on, I don't notice it. Perhaps just cut the sugars in half, or just go with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

    Mosquito control for yards.

    Glad it's working for you, once upon a time.... the county would come around and spray neiborhoods with truck mounted foggers ,withat that time I assume, DDT. Us kids used to drive our bikes in and out of the fog, which might explain some things, lol. Anyway...the results never lasted, except to...
