    Best Grill Gloves

    I would suggest something like these: Gloves I have some that are similar and really like the full forearm coverage. Granted I am very prone to burning myself so this helps Another option is to just grab some welders gloves from the local Lowes or HD. I only use these for the fire though...

    Smoker attacked by a bear

    Wow, certainly not something I have to worry about around here. Fun story though. As for Lesnar, after his post fight antics I would probably rather hang out with a bear - less annoying. Oh and forget Lesnar lets talk about Dan Henderson!

    so unimpressed by thermapen build quality

    What do you guys get on your thermapens that require washing under water? I generally use a clorox/lysol wipe. It cleans nicely and kills any germs that may be hanging around.

    Boneless Pork Loin

    I have seen some people on here do these. I don't have any cooking suggestions but I would say the in my opinion 165 is much too high. 145 would be better i think but I am not an expert.

    Why Oak?

    I like oak. I kind of think of oak as a nice baseline wood. The jack daniels oak chips from their recycled barrels are a nice touch from time to time. I also really like to use pecan as I consider it to be right between hickory and oak (Maybe I am just making that up though). Then I can add...

    Access Door...

    back to the transport topic, I like to just tape it on using that blue painters tape. It sticks well but doesn't leave a residue. Worked well for me.

    So I'm doing two pork butts about 9lbs each....

    I agree with everyone else saying earlier. To me there is nothing worse than it not being ready on time. If its ready early, so be it - it sits nicely in the cooler. And Bryan I know what you mean, butts have been taking 16 hours for me. Of course earlier in the month with 20 people coming...

    Bar b que shows on TV?

    You know, I used to think Flay was just an arrogant SOB, but throwdown showed me a diff side of him. It seems like he usually wants to lose and usually is very sincere in his compliments of the others. Now, though I will watch Steve R, there is something about him that I don't really like. I...

    Alton Brown/Brining pork butt ???

    I'm a huge AB fan but when I saw that I just shook my head. His reasoning was that there isn't enough fat (?????) in the butt. Of course based on the product he "pulled" at the end its no wonder he isn't happy with his results and feels the need to brine. Incidentally after that episode he...

    Is "Kitchen twine" really necessary ??

    Sounds like your question has been answered. As an aside i picked up some different size Silicone "rubber bands" for food at Sur la table a while back (they were on sale 75% off don't worry). Haven't had a chance to use them, but this is use is exactly why i picked them up.

    Some help on a therm I found

    I am looking to mod my "extra" WSM that will be spending the summer at my parents lake house (I grabbed one for $25 off CL for just this purpose.) I plan to put a therm in it so I don't have to deal with taking the Stoker or other gadgets with me when I go up there and want to cook. I found...

    Food Saver bag failure

    I will also add that my wife got some "knock off" bags that were much cheaper. After some bags losing their seal in the freezer it became clear that we got what we paid for. just an FYI for those like me that are trying to save a buck anyway possible.

    Pre-peeled Garlic ?

    I tried that soon after we had the twins thinking how much time I would save. As soon as we got in the car we could smell it through the thin plastic all the way in the back of the car. Also I found it to have a bite (as mentioned) compared to fresh. Also, it seemed to go bad quickly, even...

    Fair Price for a barely used One Touch Gold?

    I'm in the Charlotte area and use crazedlist.org to search the area for grills. ended up with aused performer for $45 but thats beside the point. My thought is thats a good price, but take a look at it. If it looks good, go for it. If not, there will be more out there, trust me. I'll keep...

    Cooking ribs with Kingsford Competition Briquets

    Good for you Chris. Sounds like a great idea. Sometimes we can get caught up in this and forget to have fun. Also, how was the ash when you lifted the lid. Notice anything out of the ordinary?

    Restaurant Supply Store in CLT

    my wife went the other day and forgot to ask about lump. She said she didn't see it in the showroom though. I need to call them. I need a good source for lump this year.

    NY Style Pizza Dough

    Wanted to post a big THANK YOU to everyone on this thread. I finally had this pizza tonight and it was beyond good. We have made homemade pizza before that was good (not great). Not only was this recipe easy but some of the best pizza I have had in a while. A couple of questions, the crust...
