    Traeger Paint

    Nice they're fixing it. I myself have been debating getting a Traeger, and was gonna pull the trigger on one this weekend at a local Costco Traeger Roadshow... but I've been reading a lot about problems with the China-made models, that it's making me reconsider. This grill just costs way too...

    Traeger Durability? Help with my decision!

    Hello All, It's been a LONG time since I've posted here.  I've been smoking meats still... just not enough time to read the forum and post stuff!  I wanna get a new smoker for reasons below, and I'm looking at the Traeger Texas (BBQ075) at Costco Roadshows for $799. Does anybody have an idea...

    You won't be disappointed.  I have a propane GOSM and a WSM... the WSM holds temps so steady I haven't gone back to the GOSM yet (although I haven't smoked as much as I would've liked the past couple months, which is why this is my first time posting in months as well).

    Dogs...What breed do you have and whats their name

    We have a long-haired chihuahua (very manly huh?) She's actually my younger brother's dog, but we've had her for almost 12 years now and I don't live with them anymore... but she'll always be my dog :)

    Mexican Mole Sauce

    That's some GREAT Qview there, Rivet! I bought the same mole sauce you used for that Turkey, so I'm glad I bought a good one. I haven't smoked chicken yet, so I'm thinking that's what I'm gonna try it with. Can't wait!

    Restaurant Depot Questions

    Do you have to have a "Food License" or can you simply have a "Business License?" http://www.restaurantdepot.com/Login.aspx Their website simply says you need a "Business License", so hopefully any license will do? My mother owns a business and gets wholesale deals (no tax) at other...

    Mexican Mole Sauce

    Thanks for the info guys. I do actually have a Mexican market right by my house and I already bought a couple pre-made sauces to try. I'm just now trying to figure out how to incorporate it into BBQ. When I do, then there will be some QView for sure!

    Mexican Mole Sauce

    I just had Mole sauce for the second time in my life yesterday at my family's Super Bowl party, and it was GOOD. It was topped on some fresh homemade tamales, and was really tasty. For those of you who aren't familiar with Mole (pronounced 'mole-ay'), it's a bitter-sweet chocolate based sauce...
