One thing to remember when making these, Is to not overfill them with the cream cheese(it's hard not to cuz it's oh so good!!). If you fill them to the very top the cream cheese expands and most of your filling falls onto the grid.
And just WHY am I hearing about this delicacy just now? Hot durn
Another reason to post pics with all cook posts. I wasn't even going to post these as i thought everybody has tried them!!
They look like the bomb!
Trust me they are!!! They taste…

Yea he wants to do it again next weekend. This time he's buying the steaks!! I'm pretty sure he's buying an egg also!! His wife was like "there to expensive, there to heavy, there harder to use than our gasser...yada yada yada!! One bite....She said…
Not positive but I'm pretty sure it's because of the fat content. Brisket is a much leaner piece of meat. I know pork tenderloins can dry out also...and they have low fat content.
OK ...I'm feelin pretty dumb. I said "I need to look around a little more for regular oak" when I have two of the biggest oak trees I have ever seen right in my front yard. Not sure what kind they are but my whole front yard gets covered with acorns…
I guess I just need to look around a little more for a regular/red oak. I use the JD chips all the time since they are readily available around here. I just wasn't sure if there was a noticable difference. Love the way the JD chips smell tho!!
My local butcher has them for 6.99/lb everyday but had a 5.99/lb special on them over the weekend so I could't pass it up. I will be doing this cook again for sure!! I will be happy to pay 6.99/lb next time because it was well worth it!!
If they are the excel brand briskets at walmart they are select or lower grade. I cooked several of them, some very good and some not so much. They are 2.59/lb here at wally world and a local butcher has choice grade for 2.79/lb.(last time he charge…
I light my Egg with an electric starter, so the fire is centered from the cast iron bottom plate to near the top of the lump and (burns outword as the cook continues).
I basically do the same but I only light the top middle for a low-n-slow. It wo…
I just use a piece of trim coil I had when I finished the soffitt and facia on my house. Not real pretty but works great and the daisy wheel is still fully functional under it.
I have made his recipe twice (both times exact recipe). The first time I did the whole cook on the egg and got carried away on the smoke. I just thought the sauce had to much smoke flavor(still very good tho!). The second attempt I cooked the meat a…
Not sure if you have one, or if you even like there dough, but Papa Murphy's pizza sells me all the raw dough I want. Good for home made pizza, not sure how it would work for calzones tho...
Ive done this a few times with great success. One question.....did you have an air gap between the plate setter and the foil pan? or was the foil pan placed directly on the plate setter? I think you would like the results if you found a way to raise…

Do a google search for "pig shots" as there are many, many different combinations for fillings. Cream cheese is about the only thing the same in all of them.
@nola......dumb question, I was gonna order a grid online but I'm not at home to look for myself. What size grate do I need to order to get it raised like your set-up. (have a large egg BTW)
