    Anybody own a Big Green Egg?

    I’ve been watching the classifieds for a deal on a Weber Ranch, and come across cheap BGEs from time to time. I’ve only known one friend who owned one, watched him cook a couple times on it, but never ate any food from it. Being in front of one I understand why people like them, they are a...

    Need an outdoor propane burner recommendation?

    If so, I picked up a Camp Chef Explorer dual burner based off a thread I saw here - and couldn’t be happier so far. I needed a dual burner for daily home use on the patio, requirements; 1) Not huge 2) Boil/fry easy but also go low and simmer/sauté. 3) Sturdy with some height (will be used on...

    Pork Spare Ribs on the Jumbo Joe

    Been on a little hiatus lately, hope everyone has been well. From the looks of all the quality food being posted, seems as though everyone is still eating ok. 😉 Was in the mood for some pork ribs, so I picked up a rack from Publix, seasoned with Salt Lick original. A little mix of hickory...

    Crab Fried Rice

    Every so often I get the craving for some good old fashion Chinese buffet style pork fried rice. You know the kind; lots of egg, finely diced veggies, square chunks of pork, and always just a little too much butter or oil. Well, tonight was one of those nights, and surprisingly it's not at 3am...

    Lower Vents Still Riveted On?

    Are the lower vents on all the newer WSM's still riveted on? I noticed on the JJ they went to a fastener, was just curious if this was the case on the WSM's too.

    Anybody from Seattle? Food or activity recommendations?

    I'm flying into Seattle on Thursday night, and staying through Monday. It's just Roosevelt and me, so any must visit restaurants, bars, activities that we MUST see while we are there? Also, where's the rowdiest place to watch the Super Bowl? :)

    Deflate-gate thoughts?

    What's your take on this? Not a big deal because it was a blowout? Not a big deal even if it was close? Patriots are repeat offenders, suspend Brady and Belichik for the Super Bowl? Replace Patriots with the Colts? It will be interesting to see what happens either way. Based on how Goodell...

    Older Performer on CL - Tampa/St. Petersburg, FL

    Needs a little love, but looks pretty solid, bet you could get it pretty cheap. I don't have the room for it. https://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/app/4857032821.html

    16 Pounds of Pork Butt on the Jumbo Joe

    Picked up a couple butts from SAMs, and had the intention of cooking them individually, but had just enough room to squeeze them both in. On they go, used mix of hickory and apple wood. A few hours in, I was shooting for a cooker target temp of 250 degrees. Butts were foiled at 160...
