  • That ain't water. But, yes, we'll use that.

    • Ever been to the Hard Eight, in Stephensville TX? Supposedly one of the best places for Texas BBQ. It was pretty damn good, but nothing that really stands out.

      • I love brisket, so Texas is good by me for BBQ. Of course, I also love pork, so North Carolina is great, too. I'm not a huge "big sauce" fan. So KC doesn't haven any special appeal, though I've heard it's a great BBQ town nonetheless.

        Smoking a pork shoulder, pulling it and dressing it and having several beers along the way is a great Saturday. Well done, Entropy!

        • I agree about sauce. If you're taking hours to cook meat low and slow, it doesn't need sauce.

          • Well, I'm not "anti-sauce." With brisket, I prefer no sauce. With pulled pork I prefer a light Carolina dressing, either ultra basic Eastern style or a South Carolina mustard-vinegar sauce (which is f'n awesome). I also prefer a vinegar-based slaw with my pulled pork -- throw in some scallions and green apples with the cabbage and it's a perfect cool, crunch compliment that picks up on the vinegar notes in the pork dressing.

            I will reiterate, though, if you're going to sauce your pork, a light hand is key. I'm not a fan of seeing it swimming in puddles of sauce. Leave a healthy bowl on the side for those who want more!

              • Equipment is everything, I just bought my 3rd Big Green Egg, the MiniMaxEgg which will hold a 12 lb turkey, perfect for tailgating, boating etc. These bastards weigh a ton so a caster version is best.

                Can't be beaten for grilled steaks, my guests often proclaim "The best steak they have ever eaten!"
                I have destroyed every cut of meat imaginable with charcoal briquettes, Mesquite, propane, infrared grill, doesn't matter. Traditional grilling methods dry the meat out, the Egg with high temps, sears the moisture in, no question.

                • I'm a light sauce guy myself... i also have been moving towards more heat in my sauce too. Not hot, but just a little hint.

                        The Pizza stone kicks ass in my Egg, the hand-made pizzas are out of this world. I suppose, countless BBQ's have well-seasoned the ceramic. I smoke and slow-cook on it too, Boston Butt, 12 hours, I even set the alarm to insure that I have enough charcoal to cook overnight.

                        If I do any open flame, it is usually beef and it is walking off the grill.

                        • Those Green Eggs bear a striking resemblance to the Ice Warriors in the Monster of Peledon serial.

                              It might be legitimate smoke or just the hot summer air of the peanut gallery, but conference realignment talk is still percolating in the wake of University of Oklahoma President David Boren&#8217…
