    Foiling question..............don't shoot me!

    How many of you foil based on the color of your meat as opposed to the cooking time? I've read arguments for both and would appreciate your opinions. Sorry if this isn't the right place for my topic. Thank you for any input or tips. J-diddy

    Butcher Injection?????

    Thanks guys. I guess, for me, it's about trying something new. I wanted to get as much advice as I could. I hate to waste the money on the injection AND the meat not to mention charcoal, wood and my time. I think I'll try it. And Len Dennis, you are absolutely right! Read ten reviews and get 40...

    Butcher Injection?????

    Hey guys I'm thinking about trying some Butcher injection on a pork butt. I'm not competing. I just wanted to experiment with it. What are your thoughts on the products in a home cooking environment? I've read that some people didn't like the results and some do. Most of what I've read says the...

    Redneck wing cooker..........

    Thanks Kaz. I never heard of that. Thanks to everyone for your input. I like the thought of using wire because, as every redneck knows, you can fix ANYTHING (except the Obama administration's screw-ups) with bailing wire and duct tape ha ha. What got me thinking was looking at the Meadow Creek...

    Redneck wing cooker..........

    Great point. I did think about the heat issue but I have welder gloves and pliers. I have looked at a few of the wing holders but the ones I've found were mostly for small quantities. That would be fine for ME but, as you know, when the wings are cooking people tend to show up ha ha. I'm gonna...

    Redneck wing cooker..........

    Problem - I love wings but can't eat just a few so I usually end up cooking LOTS. Flipping individual wings is a pain in the neck so I've devised a solution. I'd like your advice though before I go thru with this. I'm thinking of going to Lowe's and picking up two new 22" WSM cooking grates, 4...

    VERY frustrated!

    I ended up taking the guru out and opening my vents on bottom and had NO problem holding temp all night. I guess it's true, a temperature controller is not necessary with a WSM.

    VERY frustrated!

    Pat, I am only judging my temp by the reading on the guru. That may be wrong but I DID have my maverick probe and guru probe clamped side by side on my cooking grate awhile back and they were about 75 degrees apart.

    VERY frustrated!

    Guys, thanks for your help and please understand that I am NOT criticizing the WSM or the GURU. My frustration is that things don't seem to work out for me LOL. I suppose we've all been there. To answer your questions, I have the guru adapter in a bottom hole (if that makes sense) on one of my...

    VERY frustrated!

    I kept reading about how great the 22.5” WSM was and how long it could hold temp so I bought one. I didn’t have the same experience as everyone else. Mine fluctuates horribly so I bought a BBQ Guru DigiQ DX2 because everyone said it would hold temp forever……..mine doesn’t. I had ONE cook where...

    general purpose butt rub

    I'm getting ready to cook 8 butts for my girlfriend's work. They are having a customer appreciation day and doing pulled pork sandwiches. I need a good all around rub to use. I don't want anything too spicy or too sweet. Kinda need to appeal to everyone. Do any of you have any suggestions?

    How many butts?

    I talked to the guy in the meat market at my local Piggly Wiggly and he ordered me a case of 8 butts. He said they average 8-9lbs each and sold them to me for $1.39/lb which I thought was a great deal.......at least for around here. I'm gonna do 8 and they will also have side dishes. Thanks for...

    starting my fire in 22.5" WSM

    Every time I cook I get different results temp wise. I have a 22.5" WSM with BBQ GURU DigiQ DX2. I have two charcoal chimneys one of which I took the wire "rack" out of and I sit in the middle of my fire ring and pour unlit coals around. I then fill the other chimney about 1/3 full and light it...

    I've tried it a couple times and don't care for the flavor. That's just me though.

    foodsaver?

    Hey guys, I'm thinking about getting a foodsaver but I've never used one and know NOTHING about them. Here's what I want to do, we buy ground beef at Sam's and I want to split it up into 1lb portions, vacuum seal them and freeze them. I'd like to be able to do the same with other meats. I'm also...
