    I was young...and arrogant

    I got humbled last night. I've never made a bad rack of ribs. Nver. It happened last night. I was doing two racks of beef ribs, simple, light rub, smoke'em and sauce'em and serve'em, right? Well, I had two little smokers going, one with the old Kingsford, one with the new. New...

    As a 'thank you' for bringing him some of my pulled pork Sunday night, I was presented with a roll of Kuby's ground venison meat last night by a friend. (Great way to show your thanks to your barbecuing friends, give them more meat to cue ) Anyways, outside of making chili, breakfast tacos...

    did my first pork butt last night

    Put it on at 4:20 a.m. after getting home from the bars, pulled it at 1 p.m. after it hit an internal temp of 190+ and the bone was loose. It turned out great Bark had a nice smokey, but hot taste to it; even my father, who usually complains about my rubs being too hot, liked it. Only...

    semi-amusing story

    Some of you may remember my questions about using orange juice on chicken while barbecuing; well, I decided to try a little experiment Tuesday night. Since I didn’t want to waste a whole chicken on an experiment, I went out and bought some frozen chicken breast filets. After grilling my dinner...

    mop sauce or spray?

    Do you prefer using a mop when queing or using a spray bottle to distribute your sauce? While I've always used a mop sauce, I'm re-evaluating my methods. Using a spray may be more convenient and less of a hassle. Only detriment I can see is that you have to wait for some herbs like red pepper...

    anyone ever use orange juice on chicken?

    I used an apple juice spray on my babyback ribs this weekend, and had terrific results. This has me pondering the possible usages of other fruit juices in barbecue, especially with chicken. Anyone ever tried OJ on chicken? I'm really curious as to how it would effect the overal flavor. I...
