    Whole pig marinades

    Hey Mark, happy to help! I've got 6 pigs lined up in the next 6 weeks, so I'm kinda "in the mode" LOL First thing I'd recommend is to skip marinading and inject your juice or mojo ingredients directly into the pig. It can be difficult to get that awesome crispy skin, once it's been soaked in...

    Caja China style boxes and smoking, check it out!

    The debate is about to be laid to rest, lol... This model will be released shorty, and I'll be getting mine even more shortly. Review coming very soon! (These pics were taken during testing, before the smoke stack and firebox were combined.)

    La Caja China owners.

    I wouldn't recommend that. These boxes (I own several) are designed in such a way that the only place any significant heat is coming in direct contact with the lining is at the lip, where the coal pan rests, and that's triple layers of metal with air-space between to diffuse the heat. Placing...

    First Whole Pig w/ Q

    That roaster looks awesome, you could do a LOT of meat on that thing! Did you do any kind of brine or injection on the pig? Looks great! - Perry

    The aPORKalypse Sandwich

    I can tell you, from personal experience, that sometimes the title comes first. A single line so compelling that you know…you know…that there’s a story worth writing, hidden within. The same can happen, apparently, with barbecue. A few months ago, a Facebook friend of mine used the word...

    Mojo Shrimp Skewers

    One warning about roasting a whole pig, brisket, or just about anything in La Caja China….for the last forty-five minutes of cook time, there’s an ever-expanding cloud of mouth-watering aroma outside the box. This will gather friends, family, and neighbors you’ve never met, in seagull-like...

    How to smoke briskets in La Caja China

    Okay, got onto the site...I like it. It's certainly less expensive and simpler...I'm a big believer that simpler is better, lol. However: Q: Why does my sawdust not light or stay burning when it’s placed inside the smoker? A: (one of them) Not enough air/oxygen inside smoker, open intake &...

    How to smoke briskets in La Caja China

    Well, I'm not emotionally invested in the Smoke Daddy, so I'm happy to take a look at the A MAZE N SMOKER instead...will their site open for anyone else? I keep getting "server issue" and "page not found" messages from the Google links...

    How to smoke briskets in La Caja China

    Thanks, we had those custom made a couple of years back. Went back last year and had red (no flame) chef coats made for when we're catering.

    1st time smoker - temp problems with my Brinkman Smoke N Grill

    I had that same bullet for years, and these guys are right, keeping the lid on is huge. I did the mod on mine for a "freestanding" coal pan, so I could just lift the whole unit off the coals and add fuel, without lifting the lid. The minion method worked well for me on this unit (in fact, it's...
