    Shrimp Boil

    I love it. We bought a big huge strainer to go into our largest pot so that we could do a large "Frogmore Stew" or "Low Country Boil" It is definetly not Barbeque---but it is wonderful

    Lodge Sportsman Cast Iron Hibachi Grill

    I own the Lodge cast iron grill and love it. It is so portable--we throw it in the trunk of the car sometimes and stop at a beach or other nice place and grill anywhere. We are only cooking for 2 people and it is very handy. It is not a smoker--it is not for competition--but we have had many...

    Prime Tri Tip

    Shores hit the nail on the head! One piece of tri-tip in the right hand corner of the picture has been cut with (parallel) the grain instead of against the grain (perpendicular) It looks like the slicer cut one slice--looked at it and said "Oh chit" and sliced the rest of it against the grain...

    Hillbilly Steak

    Hillbilly Steak is good. Hillbilly Steak can be turned into "Red Neck Steak" by stabbing a piece of 1 inch PVC pipe lengthwise thru the center of the Bologna and making a hollow middle. Push the "core" out of the PVC pipe with the end of a broomstick or other similar sized object. Lay the "core"...

    Prime Tri Tip

    Vermin---thanks for posting about choice VS prime on the tri-tip. Everything looks awesome except for one little tiny thing. Evidently Vermin saw it too because he fixed it----let's have a contest--who else sees it? This is the thing that seperates good tri-tip into awesome tri-tip. This one...

    Louisiana Tri tip

    I would like to explain "carving tri tip for maximum tenderness" Your posted pictures are awesome, and you stated that the tri-tip was tender. Every step for optimum tenderness was taken -except for the important one. I am in support of your statements, but the tri-tip can be "more" tender...

    Moink Balls

    "Moink Ball" is a term coined by a BBQ Blogger from Rocklin, CA by the name of Larry G. He is very, very, very active on the BBQ Brethren forums. He calls himself "BBQ Grail." All of a sudden Moink Balls became a craze due to BBQ Brethren exposure. The craze has carried as far as "Certifying"...

    Tri-Tips on a Friday Night

    Did you use Lawry's Seasoned salt or Lawry's Garlic Salt? Both work well with tri-tip. If you get a chance try some "SusieQ's Brand" from Santa Maria. It is very positive that you sliced 2 different tri-tips---2 different ways. Flavor is flavor but tenderness can be optimized by cutting against...

    Bee Rich I have to cook 4 briskets for tomorrow's KCBS judging class in Sacramento. I understand the problem with dryness in the flat because I have had that happen also. I think it might have something to do with the thickness of the flat VS the thickness and fat content of the point. I am...

    Genesee (white can) Beer...

    I remember my first date with Genny. I was stationed on the USS Trenton LPD 14 in Little Creek, VA in 1971 and had a shipmate from Hunt,NY. We drove to Hunt, NY for a weekend pass and I encountered Gennesse Piss Ale. They were on sale 3 quarts for a dollar so we got 5 dollars worth--seemed...

    Finish Temperatures of Various Cuts

    There are "clues" to when a brisket is done. Temperature is a clue. I have cooked brisket and more brisket every day until recently when I closed my restaurant and slowed down to just catering. My biggest "clue" as to when it is ready is much cheaper than a thermapen. That tool is a simple...
