    ***Official Smoking (Meat and Stuff) Thread***

    My brisket from a week ago on my drum. 4 hours 30 minutes start to finish. I was always a doubter of the hot and fast method until they started being better than my 12 hour work all night briskets.

    ***Official Smoking (Meat and Stuff) Thread***

    The only thing that's kept me from buying that is the probe looks huge, diameter wise, on the site. Only truely wireless one I've see though and that's what I'm ultimately looking for.

    Anyone have experience with switching careers in your 30's?

    I had done manual labor most of my life. Route Delivery/Sales and Commercial Plumber/HVAC, at 38 my body had a serious conversation with me about a career change versus being disabled in 10 years. I've alway's been kind of a tech geek so I sucked it up, took on the debt and got a 2 yr IT...

    BBQ Ribs Help!

    I'm late to the party, but use Blue squeeze butter. About 3 passes (has to be parkay blue bottle, higher melt point than others and wont burn). Little brown sugar, 1 pass of peanut sauce, 1 pass of any sweet chili sauce. Spritz about 10 times with the same apple juice you spray on the ribs...

    Best kept secret restaurants in Iowa

    Can't agree more about Whitey's. One of the two things I miss the most about the Quad Cities, the other being the Bier Stubbe in D'port. Hy-Vee carries the quarts so I can still get my fix of Whitey's at least.

    Smart Home Tech

    The worst idea in home security is having an entry to your house have anything to do with wifi. Be it garage door or front door.

    The biggest problem is from 3rd party advertisers. Basically there is a region of the page that they sell, unfortunately the person they sell it to resells it without vetting the ads. Ad blocker is worthless because you can buy your way onto a whitelist that will let ads still get through and...

    New Spam Redirect

    https://pi-hole.net. Learn it, live it, love it. I'll gladly pay for ad free, but until then I'm not going to put the safety of my data in the hands of a company turning ad space over to unvetted, 3rd party vendors.
