For you campers/outdoors-men: How do you make your coffee in the great outdoors? What gear do you use and what is your technique? I am planning a trip to Guadalupe Mountains National Park to tackle Guadalupe Peak (The tallest peak in Texas). The mountains are in the desert and wood AND charcoal...

I have never cooked with a rotisserie on a kettle. I was planning on lighting a whole charcoal chimney and pouring coals into two charcoal baskets. I am going to put the baskets on the outside of the charcoal grate and put a drip pan under the bird in the center. Is this the best set up? How...

I am looking to add some casters to my 18.5 WSM. Does anyone have a specific brand or size they recommend? I will be keeping it outside so rust is a concern. My home depot has a ton of options but I wanted the advice of some of you guys who have had them installed for a few years. Thanks!

I am a maverick guy but interesting. You never know what Igrill is doing in their R&D department but wireless probes/cloud based thermometer systems are the next big thing. I made a thread on that new company "Meater" the first truly wireless therm and everyone kind of thought they would have...

Every year AmazingRibs.com does their annual turkey photo contest. I submitted a picture and took 4th place! In the picture you will see my WSM. I learned everything I know about the WSM on this site! I believe 4th place won me a thermopop. Link to page

Before I did my first bacon run I read the entire Bacon made easy thread. I know it was talked about a little bit but I have salty bacon questions... I am about to pick up and cure two slabs of belly. I am using the bacon made easy recipe with tender quik. Last time the bacon was way too salty...

If you have never had the pleasure I would recommend checking out The Buffalo National River. We stayed in Ponca, AR (population 13 according to the sign). The rivers claim to fame is being named the first national river by congress. There were several national parks prior to the first national...

After watching BBQ with Franklin on Beef Ribs I have been meaning to give them a try. I went to my local butcher and bought a 4 bone slab of beef chuck ribs. The whole slab was 4lbs and had a very brisket like grain. I cooked them at 280 for 5.5 hours. I had a temp probe in them and they felt...

Rare to see old kettles in these parts. This bad boy showed up on craigslist at 8pm and by 8:10 I was in the car on the way to pick up! I am need of an old twist ash pan but besides that not a bad grill

So my brother and I built him a mini last weekend. He fired it up and as the smoker was coming up to temp the clay pot cracked! Any idea why? He started it minion method style and the cooker was about 225 degrees.... Should we try another clay saucer or go with a pie tin or something? I have had...

I made my first trip to Chicago about a year ago to catch a Cards/Cubs game at Wrigley. I was blown away by deep dish pizza. It was the first time I had really had it and couldn't believe how great it was. With no real deep dish options in North Texas I set out to make my own. I handmade the...

My son is turning 1 and we will be hosting a birthday party for him over the weekend. We are expecting 30 adult guests. I am planning on cooking pulled pork and sides. Do you think two shoulders would feed 30 people? I have never cooked more then 1 shoulder at a time. Should I expect a longer...

Has anyone used one of these? I saw them on etsy.com. It looks pretty cool but for $25+ depending on model I am not sure it beats the old wire brush. The say to heat up grill and use this deal to scrape the grate.

Just picked up this bad boy this morning. For $10 I had to pull the trigger! I haven't seen this color much. By the looks of the grate I think the seller used it maybe once or twice!

I frequent my local Dollar Tree every few weeks. I am a big sunflower seed guy and they sell David seeds cheaper than my normal gas station. I pulled up during my lunch hour today and was greeted with this nice big banner... Anyone brave enough to test a $1 steak!?! I can't say I am! The...

Someone posted this link on weber kettle club and it appears this site is selling the vasconia pot again...

My family has really been into the bacon wrapped stuffed peppers so I whipped up a quick batch. I also took my first shot at chicken lollipops. They took a little longer then expected but turned out well. Cooker of choice was my Tumbleweed Texstyles Texas BBQ Mini :flagkettle...

We got what the weather man called "Thunder Sleet." Aka a thunderstorm with sleet instead of rain I guess! We closed the office a few hours early so I had to take advantage of the 26 degree weather and fire up the grill! You could ice skate on these roads! My sons first snow day...

I had my in-laws in town from Mississippi and cooked up a Vday feast. I am lacking in the photo department and I apologize for that but wanted to share what I have! First attempt at stuffing mushrooms. Cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and mozzarella. Same thing in the peppers but I have a lot of...
