    PBX Brisket and Ribs

    Though I don't post frequently like I once did, I still love the site and peek at it semi-regularly. Like many of us afflicted with this BBQ and Smoked Meat disorder, I have more than one tool for smoking meat. A couple of months ago I acquired the 22-inch PBX (the large Pit Barrel Cooker). I'm...

    Ugly Dang Bird Breast

    As mentioned previously, I haven't posted regularly of late, but my feeble brain remembered to snap a couple pics yesterday afternoon. I have a trade show in a few weeks, and have not had to travel for several weeks. I dread trying to squeeze into a suite and put a necktie on. So, in order to...

    The Prodigal Son Returns (actually, he never really left)

    Well, at one time, long , long, ago in an enchanted forest lived a…………we’ll never mind. I was a frequent visitor and poster, and somewhat active member of this website sometime ago. That said, I haven’t forgotten this site, nor have I completely abandoned it. I still look at it to check a few...

    Making a comeback LOL!

    It is hard to believe that it has been ~3 years since I posted anything on this forum. I suffer from multiple hobby syndrome and this job stuff gets in the way. I can only juggle a couple hobbies at once. While I have certainly not abandoned Smoking Meat and eating it, I haven't had many...

    Now that’s an ugly butt

    Like a goofball I accidentally got a butt that had the bone removed and it just looks funny. I’ve done boneless before I just don’t remember them looking quite this odd. Well, she’s gonna get started in a few. Pulled pork tomorrow!

    Dusted off the stick burner for a run today

    I hadn't used the stick burner in quite a while and I think it was getting jealous. She is just a cheapo Old Country Pecos, but as long as it is not too cold I can get good Q out of it. Aside from some wood issues in the beginning, it went pretty well. Seems I get some wood that is still a bit...

    It was good to flex the muscles again

    As I mentioned in a post on Monday (my fist since in many, many months) a friend of mine's birthday is on Jan 1. His wife asked me to smoke ribs and chicken for about 20, though there was going to be a a good bit of other food as well. I hadn't manned a pit in quite a while and had a nice...

    Where's Waldo.....er tbrtt1

    It's been since May (2018) since my last posting of any sort and it was a reply. So, to say I have been negligent in my smoking posts is the understatement of the year. This thing I had called a job not only continued to interrupt one of my favorite passions, it got worse. So, I fixed that. I...

    First Post.........in a while

    This job thing is killing me lately. I haven’t posted any smokes in a while, but alas I was able to fire up the pellet pooper and throw a brisket on before I went to bed last night. I went deep into the smoke before I wrapped in butcher paper and I was rewarded with a very hearty bark. In fact...

    Oyster French Bread Dressing

    This is a something I enjoyed during the holidays when visiting my New Orleans side of the family. It is a very New Orleans dish. I always believed no other city does more with oysters than New Orleans. Thankfully, I still live close enough to home so I can pretty much get anything I would get...

    I touched greatness today!

    I was in St. Louis today for business and I had a few minutes in the afternoon and stopped by the St. Louis BBQ Store. If you’re ever in the area do you self a favor and stop in. Really nice folks and a tremendous selection of smokers, smoker assessories and sauces and rubs. When I get out of...

    Questions for the Stick Burnin' Pros

    I just posted a lengthy diatribe about my maiden voyage with my Old Country Pecos stick burner. But I wanted a separate thread for the inevitable questions following a first all wood cook. 1-The Pecos seemed to "work" best with the smoke stack wide open (thats a no brainer I guess) and the...

    Joining the ranks of Stick Burners

    Been chewing on this for a while and decided to dip my toe into the world of stick burnin'. I have several quality pit makers here in the greater Houston area and if I expand that to a couple hundred miles, there is a ton manufacturers, Klose, Lone Star Grillz, so when I am ready, I'll have a...

    Free pecan wood in Baton Rouge area

    My brother in Baton Rouge recently had to have a pecan tree cut down. If anyone needs pecan wood he will let you take all you can handle. Not sure (I’ll find out) but you may have to cut it. Anyone interested, please PM me. I do travel extensively during the week so forgive me if I take a...

    PBC Brisket

    This job thing is getting in the way of my hobbies. Been crazy busy, but I had a home office day so it was time for a brisket. My weapon of choice today was the Pit Barrel Cooker. It has been many a moon since I cooked a brisket on the PBC. Probably a couple years. Just a cheap select from the...

    Just some SLC Ribs and Bird

    I haven't had a chance to do too much smoking and/or posting. This work thing just gets in the way or everything. Gotta do something about that. Come on Lotto! I picked up a couple racks and SLC ribs and the wife likes cornish game hens (baby chickens) and I picked up a small pack of legs to do...

    Wagyu Maiden Voyage

    I smoke a lot of briskets since they are cheaper than ground meat around these here parts. In fact I do them often enough that the wife complains. But I learned that one of our neighbor friends loves brisket, so I have added excuse to do a few more briskets lately until the neighbor complains...

    East Meets West-Bovine Meets Swine

    I picked up some skinny beef ribs and a rack of SLC spares on Friday. I wasn't able to score my usual beef ribs, so I settled for some skinny looking ones that were real cheap.  Well come evening time on Friday I get a wild hair and decide to do a little experimenting. I thought I'd do half the...

    Weekend Smoke and Some Product Review w/Qview

    Don't get to smoke and post as much as I like lately but I did a hearty smoke this weekend and thought I'd post some pics.  Of late I have gotten into trying new rubs, brines, injections and such. I used a couple new arrivals today so I there's a little mini-review tucked in to this post as...
