    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    It's never gonna taste like your stick burner or get the same bark. Smoke tubes help, mesquite pellets have the most flavor. I was hesitant about mesquite because I don't like using it in stick or chunk form, but it's the best for pellet flavor.

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    I'm not sure what your current goals or age are but I would wager that if you eat at a slight surplus right now you would see some strength and size gains that you haven't in awhile. It's one of the few supplements with noticeable effects. And it's cheap and very low risk.

    General (non-ISU) Wrestling Twitter/News Thread

    Yeah I guess I have to remember that tall athletic people probably aren't choosing wrestling as their primary sport. But it does affect Keuter when he needs to go full bulk. I'm guessing his workload is higher than both the average football player and wrestler and it's probably insanely hard to...

    I hear what you're saying, but he doesn't have the luxury of putting on bad weight for the time being like a full time heavy would. 90 pounds is a huge class gap

    Not having a 220 class is hurting Keuter in wrestling. He obviously has the frame to put on weight but that's difficult when you're burning calories for 2 sports.

    Chicken quarters have to be the most forgiving meat there is. My favorite thing to do with thighs is brine them in claussens pickle juice. Smoked, fried, grilled, they're all amazing. There is no better chicken sandwich than a pounded out thigh

    This chicken was too pretty not to share. Kettle smoked/seared.

    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    I'd start by checking the pellets. Vacuum out your firebox and try new ones. Sometimes when you have bad pellets the grill will try to compensate by adding more and more and more and eventually that big pile will create a huge grease fire. I've learned that the hard way a few times. Not...

    George Strait at Jack Trice-5/25/24

    This is my favorite Stapleton written song and it's never gotten much love. I'm a huge Strait fan but I remember how disappointed I was when i found out how few of his songs he actually wrote.

    Last time I made this recipe I baked a pound of bacon to use in loaded potato casserole and used the grease for my roux. That was a welcome, very healthy addition.

    This is funny because I use this same recipe and I always add extra liquid because it's a little dry if I don't lol. I go whole milk instead of heavy cream, 4 cups probably. I hate using it but the most foolproof way to make extra creamy mac is to use some Velveeta.

    Kinda looks like the builder wanted it to blow down. Never seen a house framed like that and I know nothing about framing.

    Wet brine absolutely does work on pork loin. Temp is always most important but it gives you a little temperature buffer just like turkey or chicken. I start with fat cap down on briskets and butts specifically on the pellet smoker. There's way more direct temp from the bottom than on an offset...

    NBA: ***2023-24 NBA season***

    He had a bad series. He was awesome against the Lakers. That series could have looked a lot different without a Murray buzzer beater and good MPJ.
