    Bacon Warapped Chicken Thighs

    Holy crap. Cue the sound effect of Homer Simpson making that sound when he's drooling over some delicious and unhealthy food. HHaaaaauuggghhh.

    1st attempt at chuck roast

    Thanks guys, all is well that ends well. After a few more hours, it was fork tender, puled easy, tasty on a nice roll with a little sweet sauce. Th erecipe on this site has a time chart, and as I recall, it was a 6 hour cook at no more than 275. That's where I got lost.

    1st attempt at chuck roast

    Thanks guys. I mean, I cooked this thing for 8.5 solid hours. Just tried a bite, still very tough, nothing that could be pulled. Into the fridge it goes, I'll put her back on tomorrow around 11 AM, hopefully it'll be done by dinner. Or by Easter, at least. every recipe I saw said to cook...

    1st attempt at chuck roast

    Had a hunjering for BBQ beef, so I'm trying my 1st chuck roast. 3 hours at 250, then I foiled it with some beer in a pan for about 2.5 hours, average temp of 250. Just checked, it's pretty tough, not anywhere near "fork tender". Leave it on, or did I overdo it? It was a 6 pound roast, no...

    Questions about cooking Big Bob Gibson Bar-B-Q Chicken w/ White Sauce

    I also saw that, and figured that times would reflect how long it takes to baste, pepper, and flip 50 birds. The specific recipe in the middle of the book is for 2 butterflied chickens at 325. Says to (I'm paraphrasing) "flip after the skin is brown (approximately 1.5 hours), then cook skin...

    Questions about cooking Big Bob Gibson Bar-B-Q Chicken w/ White Sauce

    This is a very old thread that I'd like to resurrect. My wife just bought me Chris Lilly's book, and she wants me to make the chicken and white sauce (as if she had to twist my arm). I'm fairly new to this, so I appreciate a recipe to follow, rather than relying on experience. The recipe...

    How do I care for my cast iron grates?

    My wife bought me cast iron cooking grates for my Weber 22.5 inch kettle, it says it is pre-seasoned. I have the one that's one grate with 4 removable sections. Question - how do I care for this and clean it, as I want it to last? I have a very stiff wife brush I was using on the standard...

    WSM or horizontal barrel smoker?

    I hate admitting this, but I also think they look awesome. Look should only matter to the female of the species. I'm pretty sure I'll go with the 22.5 WSM. The other reason I was thinking horizontal offset was that I'm interested in trying small, whole pigs.

    WSM or horizontal barrel smoker?

    Currently, when I smoke (ribs, pulled pork, etc) I use my Weber 26.75 inch kettle. I have that working pretty well. But I'm looking to move up to a dedicated low-and-slow toy. My first thought was a 22.5 inch WSM, but I am also drawn to those horizontal barrel smokers that I see on TV. I...

    Apple Brine and then? WSM or Rotisserie on Kettle?

    Looking forward to responses. We just ordered a Weber rotisserie. How large a turkey can it handle?

    Brining and injecting

    Does brining negate the need for injecting, or are their benefits to doing both on the same bird? Also, I see some people dry the bird after brining, and let sit in the fridge for a day. Is this to ensure crispy skin?

    About How Much Oil for a Fried Turkey

    Too much oil can be a disaster. Here's how you know how much to use. - put turkey in empty pot - put just enough water in pot to totally submerge turkey - pull turkey out of pot, letting as much water as possible drip back into the pot - mark the water level in the pot; this is exactly how...
