Hello all. I picked up some Trader Joe's hardwood briquettes today. I've been wanting to try them, so I picked up a bag today to check them out. Nothing fancy…. Dusted with some Weber Gourmet Burger rub. The one that's partially covered is a half-pounder :D Some sliced Yukon golds with...

A few weeks ago, we had a combination 18th b-day / going-away-to-college party for my "baby" daughter. The original menu called for brats and other sausages, with sides. I remembered that I had a couple of racks of ribs in the freezer, so I figured "Why not??" Here are a few pics of the ribs (I...

Hello all. It's been close to forever since I have posted here, although I visit here just about every day. I thought I would get back to it with a post from a cook earlier this summer. We took a trip to San Diego to visit my sister and brother-in-law and their twin 6 yo daughters. San Diego is...

Hi all - I wasn't sure which forum to post this in, so I figured I would start here. I am going to buy a rotisserie. I have an 18.5 WSM and a 22.5 one touch. I just don't know whether I want to use it on a smoker or on a kettle. I'm sure I'll be good with either one, but I'm hoping to hear from...

I haven't had a chance until now to write about my Dad's Day cook. I finally decided to try some butts. So far I had only tried BB's (twice) and one of the smoked salmon recipes from the "Cooking Topics" page. Didn't have a lot of time, so I grabbed the first butts I found. The store had 2...

Hello all. Here's the story of my 1st smoke. I debated whether or not to try it on a holiday. At first I wasn't going to, but I just couldn't look at that shiny new bullet any longer without using it! We had a few people over for Mother's Day, and I chose 3 racks of BB ribs. (Also did some...
