right on. I grew up cooking on coals. Then bought that badass gas grill 2 years ago. trying to get back into the charcoal side of it.

i hear you. the damn moving company basically crushed my webber i had for about 8 years. i almost cried and have nto replaced it yet. :(
i love using open flame for cooking. one thing i still do not feel can be replicated on gas is great indirect grilling like that which can be done with charcoal/hardwood. that sort of heat and intensity is just not there on gas grills, IMO and i have a very nice one, and have used basically the 'nicest' custom, special, blah, blah ones out there.
man, i think i will grill for lunch now. : )

Yeah, I have used the gas grill to indirectly smoke roasts, chickens and things before, it works but gets pretty expensive when you want to leave the gas on for 7 hours. That was my motivation mainly for buying the smoker.

Hi, I am the only person who posts in this thread.
Family Reunion
I just rubbed two pork shoulders in bronzeville chicago rib rub, to start smoking late tomorrow night. cut holes in them and stuffed crushed garlic inside.
Gonna pull them and serve with my friends bbq sauce
Also going to buy 5 lbs of shrimp tomorrow, will be boiling them in two batches with halved corncobs, red potatoes, smoked kielbasa and louisiana shrimp boil spices. Tried to get live crawfish but they are kinda tough to get up north this time of year.
Tons of appetizers etc, last year I was cooking for 5 hours, so hopefully this year will be less.
This probably should have gone in the blog thread, but none of you bastids have been posting in this thread this year. I know madirish and gruntt have been grilling, smoking or cooking something.

I just bought 5 pounds of frozen shrimp thinking they were raw, they are cooked. What a complete cunt that guy at the fish market is. I generally am pretty liberal when it comes to people who barely speak english, but I said raw motherfucker.

I just finished smoking 3 pork shoulders and an angus beef tip roast for 16 hours for my co-workers tomorrow. I smell as though I have been smoked.
- madirish0
my smoker is almost warped after owning it for 4 weeks. granted i have roasted for probably 60 hours with it so far, but i feel bad for the little guy. i also just got the drop-shipment of 40 more pounds of hickory chips.
this week; fresh trout, country-style pork ribs, possibly another brisket, cheese, and a picnic roast i think. stoked on smoking.
- mrdobolina0
Nice, mad. It's awesome, you can just set it up, go to work and come home to some goodness. you are doing cheese in a hot smoker? I heard that it needed to be cold smoked.
- yeah, i'ma gonna do it w/ *minimal* smoke and a water bath to try and see if it works.madirish
- Matt, I would go with low heat and tons of smoke on cheese, I think.mrdobolina
- yeah, probably do thatmadirish

It was pretty cold and windy yesterday, so it was a bit difficult to keep the temperature constant. I had a grill next to the smoker and I kept a steady flow of hot coals going in the grill, if the temp went down too much, I would add hot coals. I was tending that fire off and on all day. Good times.
