    Does oak taste like ash tray, or did I just get some bad wood?

    Mesquite is about the only wood I can discern, but I doubt that your oak should taste like ashtray. I throw mesquite chips on the grill, but I would never recommend it as a smoking wood either.

    I wait till flames are dancin' out the chimney top

    Why do people use foil?

    After rejoining this board I began to reexamine a lot of my cooking habits. That original thread back in September made me realize that I had lost the reason(s) I ever started using foil. Certainly the conclusions I came to are just one cooks opinion.

    http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?63080-Why-do-people-use-foil&p=699342#post699342 Thank you all for looking and for the input! I added a few thoughts on foil at the above link in the BBQ discussion forum where I thought the topic maybe more appropriate.

    Why do people use foil?

    so I did a side by side comparison after a thread from late summer made me start wondering about this whole foiling topic. I don't know when or where I started foiling but its been a standard for 10 years or so. I did comparison cooks with both ribs and pork butts. Hands down the bark was...

    Thanks Barb! enjoyed your holiday cook pictures! Hey Charlie, I cooked these for 3 hours at 225, then the last 1.5 hours was 250 - 275 for a total of 4.5 hours. I pulled them when the IT was 150.

    911!! 2 13Lb spatchcocked turkey's on a 22.5" please help he estimate cook time.

    Sorry to hear about your situation. Some years ago I was in a similar situation, I decided to smoke the Turkey for about an hour, then I popped it into a preheated oven and it was excellent. I had all that extra time to spend with loved ones. Good luck and enjoy your holiday!

    is this cheating?

    Couple Thanksgivings ago I put the turkey into my WSM at 250 with quite a bit of Hickory for one hour, then into my oven to finish and it was awesome! Smokey and juicy with crispy skin. I did it this way because I didn't have the time to tend it, maybe not the proper way to do it but it came...
