    Slow 'N Sear(R) MasterKettle Charcoal Grill + Smoker

    You aren't too far off a Weber Performer in price there. The cart on that thing just looks cheap. I don't see the value there. Plus it's all made in China.

    12 BBQ chains ranked from worse to first.

    I could eat a platter of those biscuits from that unnamed seafood place and die a happy man.

    Kingsford Charcoal Problems?

    I've never had any trouble with Kingsford. What temp are you trying to run? I have trouble with high heat unless I try propping the lid a tad for more airflow. I'd suspect damp charcoal as others are saying but eventually it will dry out and burn.

    Bots will post a response usually to a very old thread and sometimes they'll have a weird summary of a post in that thread. They'll sometimes have a name that matches the theme. Then they'll come back after the fact and attempt to edit the post and put a nefarious ad or link on that post...

    SouthCo Compression Latch, (Cajun Bandit Door).

    When I did it you had to buy the latch separate and drill out the hole on the door. Your latch looks different than mine. I know it can only compress in one orientation and sometimes the whole latch would get twisted when I turned it instead of just the shaft and it wouldn't compress. I would...

    Charcoal Grilling Ban in New Jersey

    They haven't having banned grilling per se but we are in a burn ban. We have a combo of very dry and very windy and we've had some grass fires out west of us.

    Goodbye Butcher Paper Roll

    Back then it was super hard to find. I bought a 1000 ft. roll. It seems like the smallest you could get was maybe 800. Now you can find it at the grocery store and Walmart no problem. I bought it from POSpaper because that was the only site that you could just buy through the web interface...

    Goodbye Butcher Paper Roll

    Not as many as I would like, but a ton of briskets. I used it for all kinds of other stuff too, but I'm surprised to it took 10 years to get through it. I have some Franklin BBQ branded butcher paper now but it's not nearly a big of a roll. No one has noticed because it's covered, but the the...

    Goodbye Butcher Paper Roll

    I finally finished out the butcher paper roll I bought in 2014. Goodbye old friend. This was THE SECRET to Franklin's brisket!

    Anyone ever seen beef cheeks?

    They serve them at Leroy and Lewis in Austin. They smoke them, then confit them in tallow. The problem is probably the trim. They they turn the cheeks themselves into smoked beef cheeks and the trim into barbacoa. I'm really interested in trying them.

    WSM like a Webber Kettle kinda?!!!

    The first time I'd seen it was a youtuber called Phil in Florence that has since passed away. I'm sure it's been done before him. The main drawback I see is that you would wear out the plated grates that come with the WSM quicker, but that charcoal basket should help. I think that makes more...

    Baby Backs and Sausage on the Franklin

    I used Goldee's Barbecue sauce I bought when we went to the restaurant a while back. It's kind of a ketchup and mustard based sauce. Their ribs are really exceptional. These turned out really good. I've been more of a spare rib guy for a LONG time. I forgot how good and tender baby backs...

    Baby Backs and Sausage on the Franklin

    I haven't cooked baby backs in a while. Baby backs were my first ever barbecue cook back maybe 13 years ago. I used a mustard slather and seasoned with some Goldee's All Purpose and Kosmos Q Dirty Bird. Franklin fired up with post oak. Ran it around 275 the whole time 5 or 6 hours. I...

    Project Birthday Brisket: The real deal.

    That brisket looks great! I used to be able to get Creekstone primes from my butcher. I made mistakes cooking them of course, like in my trim or rendering the fat, but they always came out fantastic. I can't get them anymore unfortunately other than through mail order but they are so good...

    What should I not miss when visiting Dallas/Ft Worth?

    Campisi's might be worth checking out. I haven't been in years, but it's been open since 1946 and serves Italian food and Pizzas. Jack Ruby was supposedly a regular there. https://www.campisis.us/history/

    Handles

    I just looked at my ebay history and I bought some from executor70 back in 2017 for my kettle and they are still going strong.
