    fresh vs farm-raised salmon

    I did not know that Karl, thats interesting information. Thanks, always like learning new stuff. And, your right, the post probably should have been wild vs. farm raised. I stand corrected. Actually, all the info in this thread. I just learned about the dye a couple of days ago. And can't hardly...

    chicken rub for kids

    I'm going to be having some kids over this weekend and part of the cook will be a couple of beercan chickens. My son informed that he didn't want beercan chicken and ask if I could possibly do cherry coke or mountain dew chicken. I agreed to the cherry coke idea. But, I was wondering if anyone...

    fresh vs farm-raised salmon

    Your right of course, but it comes down once again to price. I'm not a fisherman, go figure living here in Michigan, so getting some fresh coho is not easy - at least I don't think it is. If I find some though, I'm certainly going to grab it now that I have a wsm and can do it true justice.

    Father, Sons, and Q'ing

    More of an observation than a question. I've read most of your book, but, wound up lending it to a friend before I finished it. One part struck me though, it was a small competition that you had attended where there was a lack of judges and you were corralled into helping out. The guy who...

    chain restaurants

    Zingerman's has a great reputation on this side of the state, but I have not been there, yet. A lot of my friends are rather disparaging of my gastronomic experiences as a result. Actually, I did not know Zingerman's did bbq. Mostly, I've heard about their other stuff - bakery items and the like.

    chain restaurants

    Hi Lolis I'd like to echo everyone else and say thanks for taking the time to answer everyone's questions. Since I've joined this forum, I've often bemoaned the lack (tongue-in-cheek of course) of how litttle bbq history we have here in Michigan. As I've found, there are many backyard bbq'ers...

    fresh vs farm-raised salmon

    Back in May, I started a couple threads about salmon and some forum members basically, in a very nice way , told me I was an apostate for using farm-raised salmon as opposed to fresh. My only defense was price. Fresh salmon around here can be pretty pricey. Well, my family just recently...

    Smoke House

    That reminds me of my grandfather (on my mom's side). He lived in Paris Tenn. and used to have a smokehouse on his farm. By the time I used to visit, back in the seventies, he had, for the most part, quit using it. I still remember how salty all that meat tasted. I wish I had something like that...

    Hottest Charcoal

    From the latest issue of Cook's Illustrated. Conventional wisdom dictates that hardwood (or "lump") charcoal flames up fast and furious, while charcoal briquettes burn low and slow. For that reason, most of the outdoor-cooking guides in our library (including our own) recommend briquettes for...

    grand rapids Bbq mecca

    Sorry Dave, it takes place July 22nd and 23. Its part of the "Taste of Grand Rapids" celebration. It will be held at John Ball Park/Zoo. I believe the address is 1300 West Fulton. Should be a good time, with a lot of other restaurant vendors showing off their wares, along with the comp. I plan...
