I'd like to add three things. The first is that I agree with the guy that you haven't just spoiled yourself, but the family. I have only been smoking food for the last 9 months and I would say I only make good pork bbq, smoked chicken, ribs and the last two weeks smoked meatloaf. But every dish, once I get it, there is no equal in my mind or the family's.
But that being said, how much of that is the fact we can alter things to our personal taste? I like using a vinegar based finishing sauce on my bbq. And I have adjusted that recipe to get it how we like it. When you go to a restaurant, they are making everything to be in some general area to please the masses. It is a shotgun style compared to a rifle shot.
Finally, as a result of learning to smoke food I now have really enlarged my grilling experiences. So that really has spoiled the bride and it has changed even further how much we like eating out.
Life changing experiences over the smoker! Can I hear an amen?
