You will have longer cooking times. This past Thanksgiving in Chicago I had strong winds and temps in the single digits, two of the worst things you can have for BBQ. The temp swayed between 350° and 400° and the bird took an extra hour or so in the smoker. I always use a wind shield when I...

This will get me a good start. I will try some over the weekend and see what happens. I probably will do a lot of this outside to keep mine and wife's sanity. Thanks y'all Ben

Hey guys, I have habeneros and jalapeños ready to pull from my garden. Does anyone have any good hot sauce recipes out there they would like to share. I saw Stogie's smokey habenero BBQ sauce and that stuff looks pretty good, but what about regular hot sauces. I'm open. Thanks Ben

My opinion, do both. I used Minion's injection of cider vinegar, veg. oil, apple juice and a little rub. I injected the Mr. Brown's one time before the went into the smoker and another time the night before. I felt that the butts that were injected before they went into the smoker turned out the...

As far as Turbinado sugar goes, just do what I do and go to the nearest coffee shop and take a few sugar in the raw packets. Starbucks always carries them.

Thanks for all the replies. Doug of course is the voice of reason of why not to sell. But yes I have seen people grilling hot dogs and selling those as well. If I did go through with this I would have the BBQ ready by lunch time, so that everyone will be smelling everything that I am cooking...

This is my first posting because you guys have seemed to have answered all my questions here already. So here goes... I am going to have a garage sale in about a month I have been playing around with the idea of selling BBQ sandwiches as well. Which leads to my questions... 1. Is selling BBQ at...

Rick, I mount my ET-73 the same way that Ken Breit did with his Maverick in the thermometer installation link under tips and mods. I bought a tool holder, screwed together a couple pieces of wood and attach my ET-73 with velcro. The only problem is that you have to remember to take the holder...

My best advice I can give you is to keep trying. I too had the same problem at first. I would set the receiver on my kitchen window ledge, about 30' away from the transmitter, go to bed, and a few hours later the signal would just vanish. Now, after a few more uses it works great. I place the...

My first ET-73 had a distance of about two feet. Maverick replaced the receiver, but I still don't get 100 feet. The funny things is the more that I have BBQed the better it has gotten at receiving the signal. Maybe you just have to break it in a little. I still swear by mine.

Over the summer I smoked two 7 lb. brisket flats. One was in a drip pan and the other was not. The one in the drip pan was on the bottom rack. I did an overnight cook on the two of them as well. At some point in the night I got up to check how they were doing. I was shocked to notice that the...

If I had the money I would buy le creuset cast iron pots and pans. I have a Circulon set that cooks well, food doesn't stick to it, but it scratches easy. Pots and pans I would only want to buy once. As far as gloves go, I bought PVC gloves for food handling at Menards for $2. I got 22"(?)...

Steve, I am new to cooking ribs as well. I followed a post by Stogie where he smoked his ribs bare for three hours, in foil for 2 and a half, and smoked out of foil for the last half hour. The whole thing would take six hours over 225 degress heat. I tried it for the first time about a month...
