    What's the BEST Brisket Rub?

    I am considering smoking a full packer brisket this weekend just because I haven't done anything "beef" in a while. Here's my dilemna; Jeff's Naked Rib Rub has been my "go to" recipe whenever I do spare ribs or pork shoulders. I feel that the blend of flavor and spice is perfectly suited for...

    American Elm wood

    I have some very well seasoned wood from an american elm tree that I had removed last fall. The split logs are great for camp fires and such, but I was wondering if it could be used in the smoker. I'd be interested in any opinions. Regards, Brian

    Whole Round Roast

    Hi all, Just returned from vacation in Hilton Head. Had an awsome time... BJ's wholesale club was out of pork shoulders yesterday, and there were only two briskets left that didn't appeal to me, so instead, I bought an eleven pound beef roast ( from the tip of the round, I think) and it is...

    Habanero ABT's...I must be insane!

    Okay...So call me crazy.... In earlier posts, you have all heard me refer to my garden, and especially to my variety of peppers. This year, just for giggles, I planted two habanero plants for the first time to see how they would do. I figured I'd use them for salsa, pickling, or in homemade bbq...

    Turducken?!?

    Hello All, I seem to remember hearing about an interesting recipe idea called turducken. It involves taking a de-boned turtkey, duck, and chicken, and stuffing one inside the other. It sounded like a real show-stopper, if done properly. Has anyone heard of this? It seems that it would be ideal...

    The other night I tried an experiment that turned out pretty well...
