BBQing Reefers - What's on your grill/smoker?

[biecacka]

Tomahawk steaks. 2.5-3lbs each. Bought them all from the store and firing them tonight. Along side a smoked tuna slice down paper thin with honeydew Mellon gastronomy spheres as an appetizer...

Thanks it was amazing. Smoking about ten pounds of wings for the boys on Sunday and I'm unreasonably excited.

I know what you mean. I’ve cooked on a propane grill for years. This is my first pellet grill and I’ll never go back.

Same. You can smell the smoke indoors with the doors and windows closed. Can't wait to get ribs in here, and smoking a brisket for the first time.

looks smokey to me, looks good too

I can’t wait to try spatchcock chicken and tenderloin.

I have one of each. They both have their uses imo.

A bit off topic but related.
I am in market for a new smoker.
I have heard the pallet smokers are better than traditional electric smokers.
Can I get some feed backs?
I ONLY do smoked beef ribs in smoker for rest I have natural gas grill.

Pellet smokers are very easy to use, especially on long cooks. However, they don't offer a heavy smoke flavor, its more subtle. I enjoy that, but some people like the heavier smoke. You can use a smoke tube in a pellet grill, but its an extra step. With an electric smoker you can get more smoke by adding more wood to the burner.

I'm a big fan of the pellet grill but in some ways they are similar. And, I think there is something just a little better tasting when wood/charcoal is being burned and not just smoldering. It could be my imagination.

 

[Dr. Reef]

Cool thanks.
I am not much into heavy smoke. I prefer a mild smoke flavor and a good smoke line.
I smoke the bbq sauce on the meat at last hour or so as my last step. Beef ribs take about 6 hrs minimum.
I follow 3-2-1 step. 3 hours straight in smoker then 2 hrs foiled and last hour open with sauce.

I think I am going to go with a pellet smoker.

I am kicking around the idea of a stick burner as my primary source of BBQ. Nothing in my opinion beats a stick burner for the heat, or the smoke flavor.

I've discovered I can fit 10lbs of wings in this smoker.

90 minutes at 225 later...

My buns have no seeds, guess that makes it my attempt at a Big Mic.
