The Grilling Thread... (Serious)

[markduschane]

I've had a bunch of people recently ask me questions about grilling, what grill to buy, what cut of meat is best for this, that or the other thing...

With Spring kicking off and the great white north of my home land melting down, I decided to make a thread all about Grilling and Barbeque.

To kick things off, I would like to state that there is a difference between Grilling and Barbeque.

Grilling is Fast high heat... Barbeque is Slow and Low...

Examples of Grilling:
Steak
Hamburgers
Hot Dogs
Chicken wings


Examples of Barbeque
Pull Pork Shoulder (AKA Boston Butt)
Smoked Brisket (Texas Style)
BBQ Ribs (Various styles)
Whole Hog (Something I'm personally itching to try, but it's hard to get 45 friends to all synch up their schedule!

More to come including my treatise on how to grill the perfect steak...

Any questions?

. First off great post a little off topic but does anyone have a decent chilli recipe

Sure thing brotha!

Season generously with homemade rub 24 hours before smoking (helps to dry-brine it)
For the cook, my favorite method is 225 for 5 hours with cherry wood...
-2 hours unfoiled
-2 hours foiled tightly with a tiny bit of apple juice in the foil
-1 hour unfoiled to tighten up the bark... baste in homemade bbq sauce last 30min.

I also put a water pan in my pit to help keep the meat moist.

have you ever tried smoking a rack without using foil? i used to think it was a bunch of snobs just finding a reason to act better. after trying it out a few times i quit using foil on my ribs and prefer the end product. IMHO you get better bark and it's easier to get the "bite through" texture that wins competitions.

tbh I like both methods. I do admit I get better bark without foil, though in my experiences the fat renders better if foiled. Maybe that can be solved by running the cook a little longer though? gonna have to give that a try

Thanks brah. Love my Rutland

MIrin the XXL BGE. Nice job installing the gasket without all of the caulking oozing all over. what did you use to remove the old gasket glue? I used pumice and water! I hear brahs using a drill with a wire wheel to remove and find that ridiculous.

Pork Chops

[StoliFun]

God gave me shrimp. So I simmered their shells in butter, beer, worchestershire, hot sauce, and lemon rind. Then I sauteed the shrimp with onion, garlic, cajun spices, and finished them in the sauce.




And a friend of mine gave me some really good ripe tomatoes. I knew what to do with those.

Do any of you use the Blackstone Griddle?

I'm thinking about buying the 36" one.

Also,

any suggestions on a press? I'd mainly need it for hamburgers, steak, pork chops, chicken, and bacon

[DontRevMe]

posting in here while hungry was a bad idea

[StoliFun]

[jbeezer48]

Put my new Weber Smokey Mountain to use about 2 weeks ago for the first time with 2 chickens. This was the result:
