    What a score today!

    So, I know it's not a gas grill or a Weber product but I've been kind of eyeing these things and this company makes quality products (Solo Stove). Anyway guy even threw in the cover and the thing is all basically brand new. He literally fired it up once but then ended up not using it again. Solo...

    Weber Genesis Silver restoration project

    Some of the folks here are big on authenticity so they buy those special "cutting nuts". On times I've done them I just used stainless bolts and nuts. I'm more on functionality than authenticity

    Weber Genesis Silver restoration project

    The screws in the firebox are not supposed to be removed. Weber makes it so easy to slide the manifold back, slide the burners out, and simply reverse the process IDK why so many folks want to attempt to do it in such a convoluted and difficult manner and also one which more often than not...

    Long time SMS user considering a Weber Smoque. I have questions and concerns

    Yeah, IDK if Smoque was a product for weber to say we made a "different" product or simply a way to sort of "cheap down" a Searwoood. Honestly if the extra $150 or so for the Searwood did not create a financial (or marital) :D headache I'd say go for the Searwood. I've eaten Q done by people...

    Quick partial disassembly of Weber genesis 1000

    Just remove the brass nipple. If I've taken one like that off I must have taken 20 of them off. Pretty easy really

    Meat Grinder recommendations

    Well I bought that stainless one from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH2S8GB1?tag=tvwb-20 and gave it a whirl today with brisket trimmings for burgers tonight. I put everything in the freezer for about 30 min (meat and the grinder), cut the meat into portions and put everything on the big KA...

    Some meals you just have to go back to your roots

    Neither of our families (mom's side or dad's side) ever used cheese of either type in it. So the concept seems "foreign" to me though I am sure it's quite good. I think I do with pinole about 50% of the time. I just like to "mix it up". But I did use a nice shot of red pepper flakes AND a chili...

    20# Brisket

    Exactly. Just splurge. I got some really nice trimmings to make into tallow, and others to add to my batch of ground beef I'm gonna make from my last brisket as well as my last rib sub primal I recently cut up. I may try out my new grinder today, and make a batch of brisket/ribeye burgers for...

    Some meals you just have to go back to your roots

    I grew up with the pine nuts in it. The mobster side (mom's) liked it that way. The ag side (dad's) did not. I go both ways as a nod to both :D

    Time to "fall back" Sunday (Nov 2)

    Looks fantastic. I like doing them opposite. Get some smoke and cook them slower. Then blast it with heat. Basically just good ol reverse sear
