Looking for a KK 2nd hand- Northern Illinois

Very nice. Welcome to the Obsession! Can't wait to see it in action! -
CoCo Pallet Share Fairfield County Ct
tony b replied to What's a leftover?'s topic in Extruded Coconut Charcoal
Best advice = load up that pallet with as many boxes of cocochar and coffee wood charcoal as it will hold. Cheapest shipping cost you will ever get. I have a tendency to "hoard" my cocochar and only use it on very long cooks - butts & briskets. So a box will last me quite a long time. YMMV -
This weekend's projects and some good Costco news...

He left out the most-important part - with a cooler full of your favorite adult beverages!

That would be our @Poochie, the encyclopedia of old jokes! 😆

Commercial rubs and sauces
tony b replied to jeffshoaf's topic in Sauces, Mops, Sops, Bastes, Marinades & Rubs
Good criteria! Cheapest ingredient, so why pay for a rub that's mostly salt? -

Nice haul! You should be hooked up for a bit with all those! -
Looks very functional and attractively rustic.

Stellar nonetheless! -
NEVER fry bacon naked! One of the great lessons in life!

I did a porkchop last night with some of the American Pie that I sent you - it's going to become a house fav here! AND, the tomato on the salad was the FIRST one harvested off my plants this summer!

Naked pizza is one of my favorites! 🍕 😆

Yeah, most if us know, but I personally won't use FB. This Forum actually works better for many things like finding old posts/threads. Plus, we don't get the trolls and spammers here. We keep things civil over here, which is the best part.

Commercial rubs and sauces
tony b replied to jeffshoaf's topic in Sauces, Mops, Sops, Bastes, Marinades & Rubs
Never seen either Heath Riles or Elk Creek, Robert. Any specific recommendations? MSG is a non-issue for me anymore. Back in the day, it was because lower-quality Chinese restaurants used tons of it. If a little made the food taste better, then a lot of it would make it taste great! philosophy. That's not the case anymore. It's glutamate, in general, that creates Umami - naturally found in mushrooms, soy sauce. So use a light hand and you should be OK. YMMV -
I see that you wasted no time in opening up that new bottle of Gunpowder! Well done, sir!

Poor puppy! Glad that he's recovered, but not so good that he's on those meds now!

Commercial rubs and sauces

I do both, actually. I like to try new stuff for inspiration. I buy sauces because I don't use them that much and it's just easier. Like others, I have a few favorite rubs that I buy rather than try and reverse engineer them (something that I'm actually pretty good at, if I do say so myself!) Sometimes if I buy something and it turns out to be "MEH," I'll think of a way to add to it or incorporate it with another rub and improve on it. Really, it's just like buying any spice blend - how many folks out there make up their own curry powder? Berbere? Ras El Hanout? Garam Masala? Like C6Bill, Plowboys Yardbird is a go-to for chicken. Sureshot Sid's Gunpowder for steaks. Dizzy Pig Dizzy Dust for pork. These are just a few of what I routinely stock in my pantry along with preferred spice blends from Spice House, Penzey's and World Spice Market. YMMV -
Several others in the Forum have participated with me as well - namely Jon and Tekobo. It's nice to share the local stuff with folks all over the world. I would have never experienced "purple crack" (Tasmanian pepper berries) if it weren't for sharing with Aussie or Suya Pepper Rub from Tekobo.

Glad to see that the Dougie's made it this time without freaking out the customs folks! 😆

I've watched the Yakitori Guy's YouTube vids - they are very good. Sorry, but I've only done yakitori outdoors, so I'm no help with the indoor question.

Dude, you seriously need to consider opening a bakery!
