    Backyard Grill briquettes from Walmart

    Holy smokes....never again! Cooked a 12.5lb (pre-trim) brisket yesterday and I have never fought my WSM so much in my life! I wanted to go 275 and even with water my WSM has always ran hot....not this time though. Was going at about 235 and I couldn't do anything. Finally lit some lump and...

    Easter Brisket....some ?'s

    So I have only done one brisket in my life and that was two years ago...so am going to go for another for Easter! I make notes for my cooks but for the life of me...I didn't write down whether I did fat side up or down. So which should I go with? I think I went fat side up....wrapped in foil and...

    Bob Correll a public thank you!!

    I followed his "Bacon made easy" post and did the plunge! I had a curing disaster using a popular store bought buckboard cure last year....so I have been gun shy ever since. Bought a 7lb belly from Costco and cut it in half. One was Tenderquik only and the other was Tenderquik and then I...

    Am getting brown residue everytime!

    Frankly....it grosses me out. It looks like a mess and I don't know what to do. I have done the foiled pot thing and I don't think you get appropriate air flow. (I know you will disagree with me but that's my humble opinion) Shutting down all the vents to 50% or less doesn't make sense to me...

    Stupid question about pork belly

    So I bought a 7lb belly yesterday that I cut in half. It's curing now and I will bring out of cure probably next Sunday....so here is my dumb question. After I smoke them....which direction do I slice for bacon when done? Obviously this was a long rectangular piece of meat so do I cut it the...

    Spatchcock chicken FAIL!

    I don't know what happened...when I spatchcock a chicken it is 2.5 hours on the nose. Everytime. I use standard method with about 1.5-2 chimneys of KBB. Empty foiled water pan. This is the first time I've done 2 birds on my 18.5 on the top grate though...so maybe not enough room? At 2.5 hours...

    5 lb packer? 8 lb packer?

    Was at Cash and Carry today and they had their packer briskets for $3.10 a lb. I was digging through..saw 14lbers....13lbers...etc. all of a sudden a 5lber...saw an 8lber also. Has anyone heard of this before? Almost bought just cause. These can't possibly really have a point on them do they?

    Stupid ? re 27" Weber

    So here goes......I finally get to really crank this thing up this weekend for my 5 year olds birthday....but how do I light the charcoal for this thing? I normally use a chimney starter but I would need like 3 or 4 of them to cover the charcoal grate. What do you guys do/use? I now will hide...

    Are you the best?

    I'm just wondering....are you the best bbqer/smoker that you know of? If you entered comps....are you pretty sure you would win? If you are in comps...do you lose because "judges don't know what they are talking about." Or because of some other entity?

    I think I stink at Minion Method

    Ok...so I don't try and use water as I don't like the cleanup and use a foiled clay pot. I don't have air leaks as I have sealed door and lid but my goodness does my WSM like to run hot! I come on this site and analyze things to death I bury the chunks and I think this is my problem. After...

    Home Depot score!

    I got the 26.75 OTG for $65!!!!!! I am still shaking I'm so excited.....it is missing the cooking grate that's why was marked down so far. But it also included two charcoal holders so I really can't beat it. I just called Weber and I can get a cooking grate delivered to my house for about $83...
