Food Smokers and Smoking Tips/Tricks/Techniques

I think he needs a bigger cup. Just sayin.

 

So beautiful!

Or a two way Y joint straw...

 

Ha ha...I wouldn't quite go that far. Yours looks damn good, too. More like how I normally make them. Bringing that to the Fantasy Football draft had to be worth moving up a couple slots in the draft order

I trimmed this one all pretty like for the judges .

And, yes, the pepper forward rub is quite nice! Almost like it is something I may or may not be doing for a savory Pitfaced rub .

 

I'mma need a sample of this new rub soon


and no draft help for me... but I should've negotiated better

 

I'll see what I have leftover from the competition .

You could have drafted slices of the brisket. A reverse-snake. Last pick gets the first slice from the dry part at the very tip of the flat. Each successive pick gets closer and closer to that super moist center that overlaps the point.

 

So if anyone is a gamer here, I think this savory rub is the Duke Nuken Forever of rubs.

If you don't get the reference just search for the title and you will see what I mean.

 

You should have given them a taste of it. Then once they were hooked you barter another taste for draft favors.

 

It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum... and I'm all out of gum

 

May be on to something here...

First one's always free. Now to work some trades! Stater for backup and some brisket

 

Does anyone know if Lowes is having a sale on the twin 18.6lb kingsford bags this upcoming weekend? I'm running low!

 

@scottalot

 

Traditionally, Lowes and Depot put it on sale for Labor Day. I need to restock for the winter, last year I ran out in March and had to buy full price coal until the Memorial Day sales!

 

@Misplaced Nebraskan beat me to it

@scottalot knows before Home Depot knows.

This is typically the routine, though. I think I burned through 3 bags this weekend. Lots of cooking!

I have a big stash, still, but it never hurts to snag a couple hundred pounds for backup .

 

That's why @scottalot is branded

Just found out this morning that I ended up winning last week's company cook-off in the meat category .




Two of my employees won 1st place in Sides and 1st place in Dessert. My team with the clean sweep!

 

Gotta walk into work now like:

 

Apples smoked chicken! And my thermopop came in just in time! I was about 155 in the cook and got the email saying it arrived!!

 

Figured I'd cook something easy this afternoon for the tribe.




Fired up the kitchen tunes.....
















Haven't used this knife since last time I hollowed out some bell peppers & stuffed 'em up and good.









Did a few ears of delicious corn on the little Weber...

















Had a decent sized cut of sockeye with a balsamic-teriyaki glaze get ready.
























Corn ready, too.

















Peppas were stuffed with dirty rice, cheeses, jalapeños,

 

Who smoked the baked beans, sausage, peppers, and onions? I want to try that this weekend and couldn’t find the pics or recipe.

 

You already have the recipe lol, I did the same thing this weekend (plus bacon). Just put everything in a foil pan with some bbq rub (pitfaced spicy for me) and let it ride
