I'm making some BBQ Beef with a couple of chuck roasts I have for the Superbowl. What I need advice on is the sauce. I'm going to use a homemade BBQ sauce to mix the shredded beef in a slowcooker after it comes off the smoker. Should I use straight BBQ sauce or should I use some BBQ sauce and...

I smoked a whole and half breast yesterday morning and it came out great! The guests all loved it and it was all gone halfway thru the night. Now my inlaw's want me to cook the turkey on thanksgiving this year. The whole breast was enhanced with up to 12% solution containing salt, sugar...

I LOVE Roast beef sandwiches. But I don't care for shredded beef or anything else shredded really. But I love sliced roast beef in a gravy. Like the kind you get when it's catered in. On a bun with some cheese . It's the best. What I want to know is can I use chuck roast for this? I've made...

My dad picked up some whole Alaskin salmons today. I've got them in the fridge now thawing out. Each one is about 3lb's. I'm going to smoke them appetizer style after I filet them. Not sure if they have any type of smell to them or not as there still frozen. But I did seem to smell something...

I like pulled pork. It's good. But I'm actually not a big fan of anything that comes close to shredded meat. Neither is my wife. What I would like to know is there a good temp to pull the pork shoulder off in which it will slice\brake apart vs pulling? I would like it if I could get it to come...

Well I've never flattened and rolled boneless, skinless chicken breast's and stuffed them before. So I thought I'd give it a try. I put them in a plastic bag. Pounded them flat. Cooked some bacon in the micro till crisp. crumpled it up and added it on top of the chicken along with some shredded...

The salmon I bought was just under a pound. I decided I wanted to try the brown sugar rub posted in the cooking topics on the main page. I did the rub (except for the savory, didn't have any). Let it sit in the fridge for 2 hours. Then rinsed it off with cold water, and let it sit out for...

I was doing a search for something and came across a thread about someones wife not liking smoked foods. In that thread others mentioned that they had wifes that disliked the taste as well. Well I guess what I'm getting at is my wife is that way. I've done 2 pork shoulders, chuck, ribs and she...

Went to the local butcher this morning and picked up just under 4 pounds of spare ribs. I could not believe how expensive they were. $6.99 a lb But I bit the bullet and bought them. I put a rub on them and let them sit out on the counter for an hour before I threw them on the smoker. In...

I know it's not much. But's it good for the old Weber Kettle. Well I put it on around 8:30pm and it was going good. The grill temp was at 207f. Well then I realized that I had forgot to put on the Pan full of sand above the coals on the cooking grate. So I put it on and the temp droped to 179...

My dad has many tree's in his yard. And my In-laws are farmers and have a small woods back by them. I really have no idea how to distinguish one tree from another. Except for fruit trees of course. But as far as other hard woods that are good for smoking I don't. Does anyone know of any good...

I wanted to do some baby backs but they did'nt have any, thought about a rack of spare ribs but decided on the family pack of country style spareribs. I'm sure you know which ones I'm talking about. There chunks of rib not a rack. I'd like to cook them tomorrow night for when the wife gets...

I've had this 3.5 pound for almost 10 hours now and it's stuck at 170. But when I pressed down on the roast to see how tender it is it's very tender and seemed to start pulling apart. Is this normal or is my thermometer off? The meat is nice and pink sorto of hammy looking.

This is my first shot at Pulled Pork. I was planning on waiting for my WSM which I plan on buying next month. But after reading how great it is I cannot wait anymore. I know it'll be tough to regulate temps. But I think I can get it done. I'll be using about a 5 or 6 pound butt most likeley...
