Thought that I would put up one of my more recent and interesting cooks. A buddy of mine decided to do an alligator and asked if I could smoke it... Neither of us have ever done a gator before, but it was by far one of "funnest" cooks in recent history. The meat: 12 lbs gator - brined and...

Since it is 100*+ here in Texas... the only logical thing to do is cook brisket! I have really been into trying new ways of making brisket recently and below are the latest two attempts. Both were done on a Weber 22 kettle with a smokenator, heatermeter and hickory chunks. The smoker temp was...

I have been wanting to add my HeaterMeter blower to my SJ mini wsm for quite a while now... Overall the stock SJ mini wsm is fantastic, but I find it very difficult to control temps on windy days and it seems to take a long time to come to temp (225-250). So yesterday my son and I went to Home...

Just finished building my HeaterMeter (4.2.4) and I love it! Still waiting for my probes, but I had some time to play with it today. With our first child on the way and being an IT engineer, I wanted to make a minor improvement... live video so I can check on it remotely. HeaterMeter Home...

With the NFL season less than a week away... I decided it was time to "practice" a Green Bay Packer tradition.. Brats! There is only one way to do it and that is with Johnsonville brats, beer, and charcoal. Everything turned out great and I am ready for the NFL season to start! Go Pack Go...
