Have a weird question. I am cooking two packers in my brinkmann offset this weekend. Can I put one on top of the other when I am cooking them and have it work.

I ask because I know the temperature variance I get from one side of the offset to the other (close to 50 degrees) and rather than opening the lid to switch them around, I would like to keep them close to the same spot.

BGE v. Primo v. Others

Ok, here's the deal. I've been coming to this site for 15 years. I smoke/grill on a BGE and absolutely love it. However, when I got my Egg, there wasn't much competition in the area, and if you wanted a ceramic cooker...it was Egg or Kamado. I have a friend who's wanting to get a ceramic cooker. Which cooker do most of you like? Stay with the tried and true or has the competition caught up to them? As a side note, we do have a connection to get the Primo XL at a discount, which makes it cheaper than the egg. I personally love the shape of the Primo but do not know anyone firsthand who has one or who has cooked on one. Anxious for any suggestions or opinions on any of the ceramic smokers.

Is it ruined ?

I started smoking some pulled pork yesterday around 2:00. The last time I put coals on was around 10pm. I had something come up and got distracted and didn't get to pull it. I woke up around 7am and realized it was still outside. I ran out and put it a tray with some boiling apple juice and in the oven. If I let it steam for 8 or so hours, will that kill the bacteria or is it a goner ?

Prayers and Thoughts for Sheri Gray!!!

Hey Folks,
If everyone could take a moment send a thought, prayer, or wish for Sheri Gray, I know she and Rod could really use it. Sheri is in ICU and has been for a few days. Her blood has been clotting and has caused her Kidneys to stop functioning. She is on dialysis and platelet replacement. She is in a lot of pain and there are a lot of unknowns right now. As you can imagine Sheri and Rod are in a very tough place right now. I know that Rod would prefer not to speak to anyone at this time, but I know they could use some good thoughts, wishes, and prayers. Thanks!! Tuffy

Got to brag on my UDS

I have built my first UDS using tips from several dif plans on the internet. I think it came out really well, did a test cook last week and did a pork loin, was just trying to figure out how it ran before doing a big cook this weekend. It ran fine so the real test was this weekend when I fired it up friday morning to cook some port butts. I have two racks in it and use the lid off my weber kettle. I put about half of a bag of charcoal, about 9 pounds in the basket with some apricot chunks, I arranged the charcoal so I had like a little nest in the middle and thats where I put 15 lit coals. I let it come up temp wise and started closing vents, after about 30 mins I had it locked in and cruising at 235. I put my butts in and started cooking. At about 7 hrs the butts were ready to wrap in foil so that opened up the top rack and I put on some ribs. Butts were done after 9 hours. Ribs took another two hours. When they were done I had to put out the charcoal. The cooker ran all day cruising at 235 and never put in another brick of charcoal. I am super impressed!!!! I will try to load a couple of pics when I get home.

Commercial smoker recommendations

I am setting up a restaurant in the U.K. specializing in smoked meats - ribs, chicken, pulled pork, beef and am trying to select the best smoker for the opperation (several hundred meals at peak times). I was thinking about a Fast Eddie FEC120 but thought I would run it by you guys first. Space is a bit tight and I can probably only have the one oven. Is this wood powered oven reliable enough to be left on at night unattended? Do they break down much? Would an electric/ wood type be better?
I don't want to buy the wrong kit so any tips are very welcome!

Dr.BBQ, a question for you

Got your new book last night on my Kindle. Looks great and can't wait to try some of those recipes! My question is: I see you've been doing very well in comps lately and I'm wondering if you are using the competition recipes in the book or a doctored up version? Or do you substitute a commercial sauce or rub if you haven't made a fresh batch? Inquiring minds want to know!

Thanks!
Dan

New Rib Poll

OK, now the question has been reversed. Instead of how you cook ribs at home, now the question is how do you cook them at contests. I will run this one for about ten days and then post both of the results here on the forum.

What are your feeling, actions, and responsibilities towards CBJ's at the table, while judging is going on? In particular if you see a 3 point difference in scores on the same criteria of the same sample..

I want to sweeten up a seasoning for some jerky. What would be best? White cane sugar, brown sugar or sugar in the raw?

More on "Pink Slime"

Posted by TN-bbq on April 18, 2012 at 07:03:55:

Ok, we've heard all the bad... and why it isn't so bad. Personally I think it's a bunch of hooey, but hey, why not turn this into a good thing?

I recently bought something called "Flossies" as a treat for my dogs. They are made from water buffalo tendons and cost between $5 and $6 each. My dogs make real short work of them. I used to think pig ears were expensive at $1 each, but no more.

So... how about if someone was to make a dehydrated dog treat from pink slime? We must have tons of pink slime going to waste right about now. Surely the "beef police" wouldn't object... would they?
