BJ's for ribs, briskets, pork loin and butts. My wife shops for bargains on everything else.

I tried it and thought the burn time was REALLY short. IMO, results do not even come close to matching price.

Same here, always seems to be a little left. 4 for butts 2-3 for ribs 2 for chicken

If you don't mind using generics from China: http://www.totalvac.com/accessory/parts/8X12BAGS.html I find one occasionally that doesn't seal properly but it think it's more of my FoodSaver than the bags because I found the same with the name brands.

Sauces vary so much in style that it's really hard to put this all into one category IMO. 1) Any Lexington Style 2) Head Country Original (Far! Far! superior to SBR's. Even Cattlemen's is better than SBR's) 3) Stubbs if you like the Eastern style Not a big fan of rubs but based on what I've...

Wanted to do a whole brisket. Couldn't find one. Tried to find flats. Everyone sold out yesterday. Ended up with two Boston butts. Trying some different rubs. Happy 4th Everyone!

I've used the Head Country rub on chicken and pork chops occasionally. I don't really like it for ribs or butts. I think their Original sauce is better than average, if you like that style of sauce.

I always loved the bit he did about the difference between cats and dogs. Excellent! He was an ORIGINAL. RIP.

Forgot to add that I pulled the brisket and wraped in towels, let it rest in the microwave for about an hour.

325-340F Foiled at 170F internal temp. Finished till tender.

It had a ditinctive flavor that I liked but it was a little too sweet for my taste. When I make it again, I'll try reducing the molasses and sugar a little and maybe also bumping up the vinegar a touch. I thought the flavor complimented the brisket well.

I've been waiting to try a brisket on the WSM for quite some time because of how difficult a task that some say it is. Couldn't find anything but a flat at BJ's. Based upon reading several suggestions from experienced smokers, I elected to try the High Temp method. I thought the results were...

I was disappointed that I had work obligations and arrived VERY late on Saturday. The competition was over and the competitors were packing up and leaving when we arrived. I saw the Common Interest trailer but there wasn't anyone nearby that I could see. I really hate that I missed all of the...

:lol: Thanks Morgan, Hopefully, the former rather than the latter. Of course, it wouldn't take much to put a hurtin' on my aging, scrawny butt. I'll check them out and root for them to have a great showing.

Good Luck! My wife and I are planning to check out the competition and festival events on Saturday. It will be the first time I've ever attended a BBQ competition.

I've purchased these generic bags a couple of times now and think they're very cost effective considering the difference in price compared to the FS brand name. http://totalvac.com/accessory/parts/6X10.html

Maybe so but all of her children will be working either at Walmart or McDoanlds because the service jobs all we're going to have left.

Dang, I didn't think there was anyone else in the southeast that loved this beer. :shock: There's only a couple of my local supermarkets that stock it regularly. Often it is sold out and they don't restock for several days! :x

Very Sad.... Larry, My heart goes out to you and you family.

Larry, Thanks for the link.

Looks good. Love roasted peppers! :D

Sorry to hear about you and your family's loss. My condolences.

Yeah, I just added sand to the original pan and covered it with foil. IMO, the main advantage to NOT using water is that you don't have to open the fuel door to keep adding more water. Opening the fuel door or raising the lid when smoking butts just causes more temperature fluctuations and...

Having purchased a new WSM about two months ago here's a few tips I learned and others shared along the way. New WSM's run hot because they aren't coated yet. Don't use a full chimney of charcoal to start, only about 10-15 briquettes. Shut your botton vents off all the way when the smoker...

Those ribs looks extremely good. Cattlemen's isn't too bad if you doctor it up some.
