Hello, peeps in the know. Will there be no event this year?

So I haven't been to Restaurant Depot for a while but as a KCBS Member, I know we are allowed a day pass to the warehouse. A few years ago when I would go ,religiously, I recall the printout having a code for the receptionist to enter. I remember going the first few times and they didn't have...

Am I late to the party? I just read about this. Weber reveals new smart grills which can notify you when your food is cooked The Genesis smart grill will help you cook, with the ability to notify you via an app when your food is ready to serve. (Image source: Weber) Weber has unveiled the new...

Hello everyone, I hope all is well. First and foremost, I am a Weber guy, I've got 2 22inch WSM, 22 master touch and a Genesis II 435 and love them all. I've been wanting to add a pellet pooper to the arsenal however I'm torn between the Recteq and smoke fire. I do love more intense smoke...

Hello Team, Has anyone used any of these, if so, can you provide some insight? Thank you Johnny

Anyone going?

Has anyone here done pulled brisket as opposed to sliced (blasphemy I know)? Is the idea to just over-cook it or what? What you think? Johnny O.

Hello Team, So I was reading on another site, debating whether I should inject a brisket or 2 I'm going to do this weekend (I always do), and came across this post below. "NOTE: If you inject your brisket, or if you insert a temp probe, or do anything to break the surface of your Brisket...

Hello everyone, At what temps are you all pulling your briskets at? Only reason I'm asking is I went the place where I procure my wood from and they were handing out appetizers of meatballs (forgot what they called them) wrapped in bacon and jalapeno poppers also wrapped in bacon. While...

Hello Everyone, Anyone else notice that their injection is being pushed out when you apply rub and leave it to sit overnight? I'm unsure if it is just my technique but I've noticed that when I inject/rub and leave to sit over night the bottom of the pan has wayy more injection vs when I first...

I made this stuff for the family. I posted the pulled pork in one of my threads already so it might be a double-take for some who saw that already. The flavor is there for my rib, but still working on pulling temps. I pulled some earlier and some later to see what I preferred. Not the...

So think I made a mistake yesterday while shopping at Wal-Mart (other than shopping at WM). I was picking up a few house supplies, and I must admit was starving, and you know what they say about that. Well, I came across a 9lb pork butt and figured, what the hell, I can make it over the weekend...

Anyone else notice that they have to flip their wings when using the vortex? When I first got the vortex the directions stated no flipping necessary, but one my first run I noticed one side of the wings ended up sort of soggy. After that initial run I've since started to flip them but have...

Hello Team! First off, I typically do not like freezing my meats but I got a deal on some butts 2 weeks ago (.99 per lbs) and now have roughly 18-19 lbs I need to thaw by Friday, am I screwed? Did some searching and read 3 days should be enough, but I dunno, my refrigerator still stays pretty...

Just wanted to thank the forum for putting me on to this. I've had the part forever, just got around to hacking it up and putting it together. Great mod in my opinion. I'm sure you've all seen it before. It's zipped tied now at the legs (not pictured). Thanks again! Johnny

Hello everyone! Has anyone here done Gyro meat on their kettle or WSM? I’m trying to give myself excuses to purchase a CB rotisserie but chicken and turkey has been the only consideration for doing so thus far. I really love Mediterranean food and would love to do my own gyros. Anyone? What...

Rather than deep fry, have any of you tried to cook wings up with these flavors with your vortex?

So my brother is graduating from the Sheriff's academy in early August and I've been tasked with "catering" the celebrations. Yes, it's a bit early but it's sort of fun to plan so I'm trying to put together numbers now. I'm not sure if it's because I'm stupid or tired (or both) but the math is...

Hello Everyone, Just had a quick question for those running Vortex units. Would you recommend upgrading to a cast iron grate? I've read a few reviews that stated it burns so hot that it rusted the existing grate. Any truth to this? Thanks in advance, Johnny

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is going well. Just wanted to see what type of cutting boards/butcher blocks you all are using? Started to look into plastic but I think wood is better? Thoughts? If you use wood, what type of wood? Been seeing bamboo, cherry but was reading maple or beech...
