Little Steven said: Just warning yáll. If I see one more apology thread today I'm coming down there. Gonna lose the treat altogether soon If you come down here, you will surely do something you have to apologize about.

With your oven set at 200, it will take a long time to reheat. I've had pretty good results reheating (in pan covered in foil) at 275 to about 140-160 internal. It is not a bad idea to pull it off a little earlier than you would normally when you do…

Smells like............victory!

You callin' me a horse?;)

The recipes are all unique and have not been simply renamed. Happy cookin!Chris

Steve says "please ignore" and over 420 views so far and 2 pages of posts. I love it. Chris

I think henapple and damned hooligan are narrowing it down pretty good. Sounds like either airflow, available fuel, or both.Cheers!Chris

Opening the lid provides plenty of oxygen to the fire, and opening it too long will certainly start your fire spiraling out of control. A couple things I do to help this. First, don't use much more charcoal than you need to complete the cook. Also, …

I'm with Fishless and the other 275-300 guys, raised direct. Wings need some time....not like thighs, but 45 minutes to an hour of slowly browning the outside makes some dang good wings. Happy cookin!Chris

Greased Lightning works like a charm. Cheers!Chris

Actually I think the injection is distributed much more widely in cooked meat that in raw meat. It is a great way to add flavor late in the cook.Cheers!Chris

My good friend Tuffy Stone said it well a few years back. "Foil is a tool." The idea being that once you have introduced smoke flavor and built up a colorful bark, foil will speed the process by eliminating evaporative cooling. The meat heats quickl…

It may be time to look at new ways! No need for foil. I like to take the skin off so the seasoning is right on the meat. Cook direct on a clean grate. When browned it should release itself and flip easily. Cutting the filet into manageable sections …

I was born in Washington DC, and have no idea what is traditional. Mom in law, who grew up in Saigon, was my introduction, and the egg, chinese sausage and the black mushrooms were her way. So, it ended up being what I thought was traditional! Over…

Pretty cool. My late mom in law made the first banh bao that I ever tasted in 1985. It was always a a project that took her most of the day. Her dough was heavenly, and she knew exactly how to steam it perfectly on the particular bamboo steamer she …

My first Egg back in 1998 totally opened up my eyes. Using the Egg since then has totally changed my life and career. Cheers!Chris

The Cen-Tex Smoker said: I would put it on later and you can always bump up the temp to finish if you need to. I would hate it if it were done at 9 am. Check it around 11am and see where it is. Should be out of the stall by then if it held st…

Howdy Boilermang.Lots of advise already from some great cooks. Part of the challenge is taking all the info you are gathering, and making it your own, and making sure you can get good hot moist meat on the table at 5. My intent is not to throw a cu…

Exercise. What a concept!! It really does make you feel good. I always get addicted to it for a while, then somehow (unlike other addictions) I kick the habit ;) Your post is inspirational. Not even sure I could run 3 miles. Good luck and keep crank…

Hey guys. Thanks for listening! Wish I didn't have to put you through all the "ums" and ""ya knows", but fluent speech is not my thing. LOL. It was fun, and I hope it was worth listening to. Mike, hope to see you at the class in November. Y'all be …

I'm with Wolfpack..but I like a screaming hot fire, and around a minute per side. They are great glazed very quickly with a mixture of ketchup and hoisin sauce. Can't tell how big those are, but squids with 6-8 inch bodies are the most tender. Have…

My guess is that your guru probe is in a hotter spot of the cooker, so you are running a bit lower than 225. Moving the probe to a different spot of the cooker, and perhaps closer to the meat will help with your troubleshooting. At this stage, it ma…

Cool stuff! I love learning about different regional dishes I have never heard of. Sure brings up some ideas, and sounds like something that needs to be tried. Lotza possibilities. Cool thread.Chris

Look on the bright side, you are stopped now. Congrats on the Egg purchase!Chris

Hey y'all!Mickeys rub actually sounds fantastic. That basic recipe with anchos and coffee for earthiness, garlic for roundness and black pepper for bite is actually a fantastic flavor. I noticed a few mentions of our Red Eye Express. Thanks! Funny…

February is not a fun month here in northern Virginny. It has not been super frigid, but just plain cold and raw and mostly gray. If it is going to be this cold, we might as well get snow, but almost none to report in 2 years. Bottom line, annoyingl…

We transport 4 of our Eggs in our enclosed 6x10 trailer, in nests, strapped against the wall with the flat side of the hinge against the wall. The other 2 travel in the back of my pickup...out of the nest with the flat side of the hinge toward the f…
