    Beef Jerky and Bourbon Barrel Porter

    I brined some strips of Beef Bottom Round overnight in a brine recipe I got from a retired Surveyor that he got from the Mo Conservationist magazine about 35 or 40 yrs ago. (Thanks Bob) I used Royal Oak and a chunk of Peach @ 150*F for 5 hrs. I also brewed a Porter And there you have...

    Chicken Cordon Bleu Fattie

    I did Squib's recipe again tonight as my second cook on the 14.5" WSM in an effort to season the insides. This little cooker holds a very solid temp. I made two adjustments on this short cook: one on the way up to catch my cooking temp of 250*F and the second when I overshot it by 25*F. It seems...

    The great water debate

    It seems since the WSM was introduced in the 80's there's been a water vs sand vs pebbles vs bricks vs terra cotta clay flower pot saucer in the water pan debate ongoing here and other web sites. Who's "right"?  I've used water with success.  I've used nothing with success.  I've used a terra...

    brining an "enhanced" bird

    Tis the season: what about brining a bird that's already been "enhanced" with X % solution? Could that create a too salty condition?

    Local folks

    Is there a member's list or way to search to tell who's in the local area?  We've tried to get folks together for a gathering but it's kinda hit or miss as quickly as a post gets buried with all the post activity.

    Leftovers

    One of my favorite things to do it use smoked foods as an ingredient in another dish. The last packer I cooked, we ate 11 meals from - none of them the same. I mean a BBQ plate, Pulled Pork or Beef Samich, etc is fantastic but using the leftovers in tacos, nachos, veggie soup, beef and noodles...

    ...for tailgate food. So, I made lollipop chicken wings! "O". "H". Used a piece of Peach from a limb that was damaged in a storm last year I had stashed under a cedar tree, a full load of Royal Oak Lump, and 3 lbs of wings. Cooked em indirect at 350-400*F. (I should have used a disposable drip...

    I placed a beautiful ribeye in Dale's for a nice bath while I got a chimney of lump volcano hot, then threw it all in the kettle (steak indirect) With a piece of Oak. Meanwhile, I got a cast iron skillet rocket hot direct, added a sliver of garlic herb butter then seared the steak. Flipped it...

    Turkey times

    I've seen a lot of posts lately for temps and times to cook a turkey.  I found this chart on the web somewhere in the past and I think it's a pretty good reference.  I recommend cooking turkey 325-350*F and NOT stuffing the turkey to ensure you're out of the danger zone quickly enough not to...

    Tri-Tip Oscar

    I entered this in a throw down on another site.  Wish me luck! I used a 2 lb Tri-Tip spiced with a combo of Weber Chicago Steak Seasoning, Penzy's BBQ of the America's, and one chunk of Oak. The cook's beverage of the day was an English Brown Ale, the Tri-Tip was seared then brought to...

    Roll Call replies

    Does anyone else find it interesting that we ask new posters to introduce themselves in the Roll Call and then the same folks post the same cut and paste message to each and every new member? IMHO we should be just a little more welcoming than simply attaching a form letter to their first...
