I'm buying the rotisserie attachment for my Performer and I'm crazy stoked about it. Obviously, chicken and roasts are on the agenda. I even looked up a way to make gyro's on the spit. Hint: Wrap it in tin foil til it firms up. But I was wondering what other cooks people have done on the...

I remember reading on here (probably years ago) about a group that put on a BBQ competition. The key was that you could not compete on equipment that cost more than $500 retail. Meaning Traegers and custom rigs were off limits. Weber Kettles, WSM's, so forth are totally legit. I'm looking...

A while back I posted about smoking on the Weber kettle using a roasting pan. You can read about it, and see all the pictures here. Today I decided to try ribs, but I had a problem... Ribs wouldn't fit on the roasting rack for my roasting pan. So what's a fella to do? I drew on inspiration...

I've been reading this forum for awhile now, and have not seen anyone post this, so I thought I'd share. I know a lot of people ask/read about smoking on the standard kettle and I've seen things like The Smokenator and The Rib-o-later, and I've seen set ups for foiling and all sorts of things...

Sorry.. this post is a little similar to Stephen's "10 lb Butt" post, but not exactly. Here's the deal. We're having a pot luck at work, and after some people at work have tried some of my other stuff, they've nominated me to provide some pulled pork. Of course I'm happy to do it, and I'm...

This is a question that I could easily answer myself on my next cook. But since we all love reading and talking about cooking on webers, I thought I'd just put it out there. One of my favorite features of my new performer is the ability for it to snuff a fire. After a cook, I just shut...

The other night I went out and cooked up some steaks on my first ever performer. The fire was really hot and I over cooked one side just a touch. Put on the lid and closed down both top and bottom vents and went inside. While we were eating my wife asked if I had also cooked up the chicken...

Test Burn #2. For the results of test #1 you can check here. Anyway... to start, I foiled the bottom grate, and foiled the flat side of one of the charcoal baskets to use as a stop barrier. My first test burn was completely empty, so this time I decided to use a large roasting pan to act...

Got my brand new Blue Performer this week. Did a non cooking test burn just to monitor the temp reaction. I wanted to see how many hours one chimney of charcoal would steadily hold low temps for. I was hoping to witness locking the temp somewhere between 225 - 275. I normally...

So, I've made ABT's before.. they're always been good. They're pretty hard to mess up as far as flavor goes. But they've not always been the prettiest to look at. I always have a hard time keeping the bacon on the peppers. I started a new job, and tomorrow we're having a pot luck and I'm...

I hope I'm not over posting here. I DID do a search for this topic and didn't find anything. Basically... I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a "real" bbq in month or so. For the last few months I had been convinced on the new One Touch Platinum . It has basically everything that the...
