    45 day early wedding gift for my cousin. Strip loin. Going condom less in the beer fridge tomorrow. I'm going to be jealous as they will be eating good in the future!

    See you guys next grilling season :giggle: 


    Thin skinned kids ... a little shoveling and a 550 degrees cook will overcome a little snow.


    Rockwood, pecan, 550 degrees, four inches above the felt line direct, 2 inch thick chops cut from a Costco Rack of Pork.  Just had to take my new Smokeware black face temp gauge for a test drive.

    @pgprescott ... no food pics from tonight.  Will take some pics of tomorrow's cook with the rest of the rack.  Have to fess up.  I've been saving this rack for the perfect day to cook it ... saving it from November of last year that is.  Very pleasantly surprised at how good the rack was after a year in the freezer.  Costco has them in the cooler again, but the missus wouldn't let me buy one until this one was gone.

    Just got home from a BBQ joint up the street.  Never been there before, but they had the best brisket I've bought from a restaurant.  I'm in VA, and trust me, they don't do brisket well around here

    Had some friends over tonight and I made some cedar planked salmon with Dizzy Pig Raging River.

    After dinner and a bit of drinking me and my buddy went for a walk down to Sheetz.

    Got some cheap cigars to smoke on the way back. Now I'm sitting here drinking a bit more.

    I'm setting up for a old school turkey breast smoke. This bird will run at 180 degrees for 4 hours over Apple wood and then I will bump temp to 200 until finished. Probably will finish over oak instead of more Apple. Rockwood is the lump of choice here so I can control the smoke profile to my liking. For rub I going with kosher salt, black pepper and real heavy on cayenne.

    Freeze tests are extremely hard to do.  Watch some videos on them.  Boiling water is the only calibration you need to care about for BBQ.
    I actually was testing it against my thermopen which is dead on. Tested with 35 degree water on the "freeze test". 

    Are you sure you were in the same units on all devices?  Looks like you were off by a celsius to fahrenheit factor at the low end.
    Yup. I thought of that. The test was consistent on the high end and low end to ensure that the probes were consistent through a range of temperature.
