    Char Griller "Big Red Kooker"

    This is my first new thread. Thought I'd give my first impressions of the "King Griller, Big Red Kooker" by Char-Griller. I'm loving it. Plain and simple. I did some research on this grill grill/smoker prior to putting my $289 down on it. I as unable to find much about it online. I don't...

    Chicken Leg Quarters & Zucchini Pron

    After eating a lot of beef ribs, baby backs, spares, and pulled pork the last couple of weeks my wife asked for a weekend of a little healthier cooking and just chicken and fish for the protein. Today's chicken cook consisted of 4 leg quarters seasoned with the Rub Co's Hot Wing Rub and either...

    Review(pics) of 2 inch fire ring for large BGE

    I saw this in the BGE catalog and decided that before the next time I BBQ a turkey I will get one. So I did. If you have ever tried to stand up a turkey in your Big Green Egg you know of the clearance problems. The turkey tries to escape out the top and you end up just laying it down as...

    Suckling Pig on XL BGE Help??

    Well, this is quite a way to make my first post here---needing advice. I have an XL BGE that I obtained about 3 months ago. It has been great fun and I've learned quite a bit using it. I read somewhere that the XL is perfect for a 35-40# suckling pig. Since I'm a pig virgin, a Cajun buddy of...

    RD brisket better than Costco

    I had my brothers coming in town for the Indianapolis 500 and they had heard about my "legendary" BBQ skills, so I decided to do a brisket. I decided to leave work early and drive downtown to RD, but got lazy and distracted and went to Costco instead. However, once inside I was disappointed in...

    Big Green Egg Table Question

    Just took the plunge and picked up a Large BGE. Building a table this weekend. The standard table plans call for a 21" hole. The plans also call for a distance from the top of the shelf to the top of the table at either 15" or 17". I'm thinking the 17" is allowing for the patio cement under the...

    Pizza on the egg, round 2. Success!

    After marginal results the other day, I gave pizza another try today. Came out way better and was surprisingly much easier. Thanks to John (R2Egg2Q) for loaning me his Pizza Peel. It made all the difference in the world. I used trader Joe's wheat dough, Pepper Jack cheese and Parmesan to go with...

    Korean pork chops

    So I'm cooking these Korean pork chops that someone in my office has prepared and marinated, but she didn't give me any cooking instructions. I was going to do them indirect on my Egg with a little apple smoke, how long do you guys think I should do them for?

    Im contemplating buying a used large Kamado Joe off Craigslist but apparently it has a hair line fracture in the dome. Do y'all who know about ceramic smokers think this will affect the ability to hold temperaturesook properly? Apparently it also comes with a replacement dome (I have no idea...

    Bark on a BGE

    I've done a few smokes now on my BGE and it seems like I can't get the bark as dark as I used to on my ECB. I'm usually smoking between 225-275, done both hot n fast and low n slow. For rub I have been using Mike Mills Magic Dust recipe, with GFS lump and hickory and applewood. Any suggestions?

    UDS and Water Pan?

    Okay, I am seriously considering building a UDS instead of buying an BGE for $1000. The question that occurs to me though is that the plans for building a UDS do not call for a water pan, such as the WSM has. Do you not need a water pan for a) temperature stability or b) humidity in desert...
