  • Nothing to it!  Nice work!  Treat yourself to a sandwich now, and then some BBQ pork nachos later ;).
  • Sweet score!  The small CI gives you as much grilling area as 3 mangrates!  
  • Wow...this is sounding really good and makes me want to try it.   Now...what if you did wrap those in bacon, and used the same CI dish to roll them around on the sides to crisp on the bacon.  Seared them in the hot bacon grease, and include that in …
  • Over the years I have seen many reports that the mothership is not the best at responding to emails.  You may want to give them a call.  I know...that is so 1985 :P.  You might also just want to get in touch with the dealer that you want to handle y…
  • Pretty sweet.  Are they still offering the 15% off?  I did a quick search and found a comment "if you liked us last week..." so maybe I missed it. 
  • I'm a brisket virgin, but I have decided I don't want to try it until I can get a whole packer.   Was that $3.43/lb for the packer?  I would go with that.   Funny- I spent my lunch break calling around and could't find one.  I can order one from my …
  • Scott P said: Take a look at butcher BBQ. They have a 60cc injector for $2.00. Very easy to clean and if you destroy is they are only $2 to replace. That's funny- I just happened to be on that site and noticed one that looks like the spi…
  • 11 lb each?  Dayum sir mix a lot.  I agree with @shtgunal3- I would start bumpin that temp up sooner rather than later.  You can always wrap them once they hit the stall and then bump up even more to power through. 
  • I think the best deal you can get is to sign up for the mailing list and hope you score an open box deal.  Last one was like $69.  Then again...could be a while to save $16 and it could cost you more than that in overcooked steak ;). 
  • Nice!  I hope everything works out ok in your divorce settlement :P.
  • Just another option- double wrap it in foil and put it in a 250 degree oven until it hits 200 or so if you can't resuscitate the fire.    
  • Ribs look great.  I love smoked taters as a side item. 
  • One great accessory I can think of is a large big green egg to sit beside your medium.  You can cook direct and indirect at the same time.  A couple of butts on the medium, 6 racks on the large...you will be a BBQ machine.  
  • I think they will be fine in the fridge.  What is the "sell by" date?  Chances are- it is after Monday, which means they would have sat in the "fridge" at BJ's until then ;)
  • Charlie tuna said: Mixon's unit has a 1/2 HP motor and the injector has five needles on the head, hold about a gallon of injection liquid. Dayum!  Just how much liquid can a butt hold! 
  • We need a [Agree to Disagree] button ;).   I'm a Braves fan, but I get that the 'chop is annoying- especially for the other team.  Heck sometimes it is annoying for us Braves fans when they do it for no reason.  There should be a chop limit per game…
  • It looks like the injector with the hose is also available there: http://spitjack.com/product/MEAT-BRINE-INJECTORS/BRINE-PUMP-MEAT-INJECTOR.html I recall someone mentioned that Myron Mixon did a demo cook at BGE headquarters a couple and used somet…
  • This is how you do it!  You will be in supply of pulled pork for a long time my friend. I just had some for dinner that I made a couple of weeks ago and it was eggcellent. 
  • Dayum @Hapster that looks amazing.  You are in for a treat with all of the fresh herbs. Caveman cooking ain't so bad! 
  • Congrats MCN!   Do you have your new home picked out?  Same area? 
  • That is really cool...but Farmers is just one of many sponsers: http://operationbbqrelief.org/
  • Not being a smart @$$...but this is a good tool to show how to use googles "site" feature. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=sweet+and+spicy+wings+site:eggheadforum.com http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1145643/sweet-spicy-sticky-wings The trick to using this…
  • Little Steven said: I've only ever been on this and the other forum. Won't touch facebook I don't care for Facebook either.  I had an account for a while but closed it.  Too many stalker ex girlfriends :).  I also hated the "tagging" fea…
  • Little Steven said: I don't get the @whoever thing anyway. Is there a reason or a carryover from social sites? Yeah- I think it started on Facebook.  Just a way to give props to someone that links back to their profile.   It will show up…
  • Accept spaces in mentions so we can give shout outs to @Little Steven and @The Cen-Tex Smoker (or, don't accept spaces in user names when people sign up and suggest they use _)
  • A vendors section- that way people that want to sell something can be on the up and up and post there.  Perhaps they have to pay to be on the vendor section. 
  • I forgot... Centex works for Dickies. Maybe we can get him to get us a egger bulk price on some overalls. They also have kick ass hipster shirts that makes you look like you're on a competition team. Not only are they good clothes, they're a cool b…
  • An events/calendar section would be cool.  
  • Sa-weeet!  Just in time for fathers day.
  • Tractor Supply Company carries them for $3 a piece if you have one of those near you.   I have noticed one of the stone/landscaping yards near me sells them so you might try a few places like that.
