    Jaccard Meat Tenderizer?

    Just soap it up, use a dish-washing brush on the blades, and air-dry.

    Which electric knife is best?

    I need to dump my old Hamilton Beach or whatever it is - food gets caught between the blades and gums up the works. Anyone get an electric knife lately that you're really happy with? Which one and why? Thanks.

    Jaccard Meat Tenderizer?

    Got the 48-blader on Amazon last year for $29. Love it, great for tenderizing/marinating lean cuts.

    Any Q Restaurants in Philly?

    This place opened recently, haven't been there yet: http://qoldcity.com/ On the NJ side in Cherry Hill there's "Red, White & Blue" and "Famous Dave's", both chains.

    The BBQ Song

    This may be the most insightful cultural treatise on BBQ that I have ever heard. And my kids are laughing too.

    Homebrew

    I too partake in both of these evil backyard habits. Most of the beef/pork Q pairings I've seen recommend a porter, or a hoppy APA/IPA for fish/fowl. It's getting to be that there are as many distinct ale/lager styles as wine styles, and the good news is that most of them go well with BBQ.

    Turkey Legs

    A sidebar question: Where do you get the legs? I never see them in my local markets, yet with the high volume of breast sales I know there have to be some legs looking for a home!

    Cowboy lump charcoal

    The Royal Oak now available at WalMart (at least at mine) is good stuff; decent burn time, easy light, great flavor. If you have a Wegmans near your 'hood, they sell RO packaged under their own name. If you find yourself near Philly, these guys have carried Hump Lump (my favorite): Smith &...

    Lump Charcoal

    Yup, Hump Lump is the best, but it's a Right Coast brand and the truck ride to the Left Coast is probably cost-prohibitive, doubt you'll find it. Royal Oak is very good and probably available in your area (somewhere like WalMart?). Cowboy ain't great, but it is lump. I don't think they use...

    WSM running hotter than normal

    I gave up on trying to bend the door, and simply sealed it with foil tape. It's pretty tight now, and I can control temps with the Guru or the vents. I never used the door anyway.

    Too Much Fat

    I did some spares yesterday too. They do tend to have more residual fat than baby backs, which I smoke more often. Your smoke time can vary a lot, but spares typically benefit from at least 7 hours. I took mine off at 6 1/2, probably could have stayed on for a while longer. For butts, a lot...

    Making smaller wood chunks

    I just got one of these for clearing some backyard brush, and discovered that it's great for chunking smokewood. Easy to use: Product info With this and a hachet you can handle anything.

    Cold weekend in Carolina made for tough cook

    In my experience, cold weather alone can cause a bit of a temp drop, cold with a wind can cause a bigger drop, and a cold windy day with a drizzle can be real tough. A windbreak or jacket of some type can help a lot to keep temps where you want them.

    Found Lump in New Jersey

    I know there are some Wegman's stores in North Jersey and their house brand lump is pretty good. Believe it's made by RO. 10# bags for about $5.

    Silver Bullet Smoker Jacket.

    If you want something cheap, cheesy, and very effective, get a roll of Reflectrix at your local Big Box and make one of these. It's very good at keeping temps up on a wet, windy winters day.

    Drill A Hole

    I gave my WSM cover a good coating of Coleman Tent Waterproofing spray. No leakage whatsoever.
