    Please don't disqualify me...

    Bone dusted? What's that, please? 4 pound of rib sounds like it's from a monster pig. I think I need to ask my butcher to stop trimming so much meat off the racks he sells me. I've just discovered ABTs, and haven't got as far as seasoning them. What do you sprinkle yours with? I see ground...

    Happy Smoke Day

    It's pretty straightforward, of course, but for reference the original recipe is here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/pineappleinlimevanil_91730

    Happy Smoke Day

    Yes, Goose Island. Good stuff. I noticed the new label describes it an an English style IPA, which I think is quite ironic given the number of UK craft beers which are marketed as US style... A bottle in my local supermarket costs £1.79, or $2.77 according to Google's exchange rate. It was...

    Happy Smoke Day

    ABTs over ribs - some kind of full house, surely: The kettle - chicken thighs in a Mexican rub, onions/mushrooms/peppers in a balsamic/garlic/EVO marinade, and buttered sweetcorn in foil: Apologies for the fuzziness at this point! ABTs - I'd never made these before last weekend, I've made...

    Supermarket Trends

    UK supermarkets have a BBQ meat selection now, too. I've not noticed brisket (it's not the kind of BBQ the UK does, generally) but you can buy heat-and-eat pulled pork and ribs in a few different sauces. Nothing like the selection in Walmart, I imagine, but a definite sign that BBQ's becoming...

    Ribs for supper

    Definitely the best sauce I've found. The supermarket has their normal bbq sauce too, so I'll be picking up a bottle of that next time. Sadly, no marshmallow fluff in their 'American foods' section. They do carry a nice selection of American craft beer, though. ;)

    Corned beef - what is it?

    Thanks. Coincidentally, since posting I saw someone prep corned beef on Food Network UK - I've only ever seen chefs make corned beef hash before, without ever seeing anyone make corned beef itself. I'm still not sure why it's called corned beef. Just one of those things? I've never brined...

    Corned beef - what is it?

    In the UK, corned beef comes in tins from Argentina. I see hunks of meat called corned beef on Food Network. Needless to say, it looks nothing like the same. Is it a brining/curing thing?

    Baked Potato

    My usual method: wash and prick potatoes, wrap in foil and stuff 'em in the coals 'til done. Leaves more space on the grill for protein :) I'm going to try these soon, though. Potatoes is one of the things on my 'wish list' to cook properly on the smoker/grill. Potato nails sound a little bit...

    Ribs for supper

    So the boys woke me up at stupid o'clock, it's rained all day, and my abject team got beaten 4-0 for the second week running... ...but I have beers, and ribs for supper: <iframe src="https://www.flickr.com/photos/122427125@N07/13652032453/lightbox/player/" width="500" height="375"...

    Cold smoking in the WSM

    Hi, My usual setup for cold smoking is a ProQ cold smoke generator, and a box of some kind. I usually use a container around a third or a half the volume of a 18.5" WSM, I guess. When I've used the smoke generator in my WSM, the results have been disappointing - the smoke generator doesn't...

    CHEESE...Has anyone smoked any?

    I always keep a tub of smoked salt in the kitchen. I've cold-smoked salt from anything between 4 and 13 hours. The longer it's smoked, the smokier the colour it takes and the smokier it tastes - obviously. But I'm not sure you can oversmoke salt. The smokier the better, imo. Smoke it, and...
