I'll remeber to ask if you place higher than me. I plan to be up to my elbows in chicken experimentation this weekend if the rain ever stops. Russ

I have a contest next weekend and am still trying to figure out chicken. I ususally only marinate in Italian dressing and apply a dry rub before smoking chicken thighs. I was thinking of brining this time. Has anyone ever brined then marinated then applied a dry rub before smoking chicken? Would...

Thanks fellas, thats what I thought, just wanted to confirm. Sounds like I need a Food Saver.

I plan to cook some pulled pork and freeze it for an event in a couple weeks. I plan to freeze it in gallon size ziplock freezer bags. After I thaw the pork for the event, can I put the bags of pork in boiling water to reheat it without melting the bag and making the pork inedible? Thanks

Ours will be the Prestigious Palmetto Pig Pickin' in Ladson, SC.

I forgot to mention the difference between gumbo and jambalaya. Like previously mentioned, gumbo is a cajun stew over rice. Jambalaya is more like red rice, but with more stuff, trilogy, but dry. I rarely include tomatos in Jambalaya, because it is more of a Cajun dish than a Creole dish. I...

Any ideas on how much condiments and garnishes to do for 500 hotdogs......mustard, ketchup, onions, relish, and shredded cheese. I was planning to get everything from Sam's and go by the amount of servings printed on the labels of the institutional size containers. Probably will buy enough to...

I'm cutting them a deal at $4. I actually originally quoted $5 with canned sodas. When they asked to come down to $4, I changed the drinks to tea and lemon aid. Plus they are my neighbors. I may go with 500 dogs just to be safe. There are many young kids in the neghborhood (under 10). I'm doing...

I am catering a neighborhood party for 300 people. All they want is grilled hot dogs (with buns, onions, mustard, ketchup, relish, and shredded cheese), cole slaw, potato chips, cookies, lemon aid and sweet tea. I'm doing it for $4/person. I'm trying to get a number of kids and adults to get an...
