    Northern California Smoker Here!

    Where in Norcal, bmudd? I'm smack dab in the middle of Mendocino county. Like your avatar, everyone here owes something to the firefighters who pulled our a**es out of the fires in '08. . .

    Northern California Smoker Here!

    The site already changed my evening's menu! Got the dumplings smoking now! Okay, I shuffled around (pardon, I'm cooking as I write) and have no idea what a qview is. Care to share a link? Will check out the e-course while digesting this evening, unless the wife and I watch a movie.

    Vegetarian BBQ solution

    Oh god, and I almost forgot because they are so out of season, but grilled or smoked, asparagus is out of this world! Just soak in olive oil for an hour or so, then season with salt/pepper/garlic and grill or smoke until tender. You can't go wrong!

    Apple Smoked Apple Dumplin' on the drum

    Vegetarian BBQ solution

    I really got the grilling bug when I was a vegetarian back in college, and it taught me alot. The best tool in the world for the vegetarian grill is one of those BBQ woks/ grilling pans. Fallafel (Chick Pea patties) can be done on foil with indirect heat. In the grill pan, cherry tomatoes...

    Best BBQ cocktails?

    For this afternoon, I'm drinking Mothership Wit by the New Belgium Brewing Company and might have a shot of Bullet Bourbon after dinner. But the man asked for cocktails, not beer n' shots. But I will say, I'm curious about that milk stout. ;)

    Northern California Smoker Here!

    Echo lake is awesome, got drug out there about five years ago by a few friends who have a cabin about 30 minutes away. Gotta say I'm spoiled though, living amongst the redwoods and all now. This isn't much of a drooling dinner, just a slow smoke for the wife and I and for a few sandwiches this...

    Best BBQ cocktails?

    Northern California Smoker Here!

    Been grillin' for most of my life, BBQing and smoking for about 2-3 years now. Have a slightly tweaked silver smoker, nothing fancy (but I have  been sketching out my brick BBQ/Pizza Oven/Propane Forge, just waiting to buy a nice house to build it).  Work at a farm supply, where I we sell 100%...
