Clayton didn’t have comps in 2020/2021 due to covid. BP was back this year. It looks like he changed his rig a bit since the pictures I took in 2019. It looks like he still has the MAK 2 Star, but now has 2 drums and 1 Ole hickory instead of 1 drum and 2 Ole hickory’s like he did in 2019. But...
Started out with a brisket from Creekstone Farms at 15 lbs. Seasoned with just salt and pepper as Franklin's book says. Put on the MAK at 275°F as measured by a temperature probe put on the upper rack where the brisket went. Spritzed with liquid every so often to keep surface wet.
After...
The town I live in has had a rib cook off for many years. Recently they have added KBCS competition. Started as ribs only, but now a full KCBS Comp for at least the last two years. BPS entered this year so I hoped to meet the man who introduced me to MAK and BBQ. I was not disappointed...
Bought a Costco Whole Tenderloin (screwed up and bought trimmed rather than not trimmed...saved NO money!). Here it is trimmed:
Cut to the shape I wanted, seasoned with Killer Hogs APR, then sprinkled with Killer Hogs Steak Rub. Wrapped in bacon and seasoned with Killer Hogs Hot Rub and...
I have been wanting to do this for a long time and finally gave it a try. Here is what I used as a starting point, but made some changes due to my preferences:

Out of foil and back on the MAK to firm up bark:

On the MAK over the flame zone on Grill Grates:
Rotated 90 degrees and then flipped:
Finished and resting:
Forgot to put the...
Started with a Costco Prime Brisket, about 14 lbs. This brisket had the thickest flat on any brisket that I have cooked! I trimmed, injected with BPS Cattleprod injection, and rubbed with BPS Cash Cow. Put on the smoker on smoke for an hour then raised to 265°F:
After about 5.5 hours, I...
Decided to try a Tomahawk Steak after watching the following Malcolm Reed video:

Started with a USDA Prime Tomahawk Steak from Costco:
Seasoned with BPS Double Secret and Montreal Steak Seasoning. Looks like a lot...
I have tried this before, but did not brine. Decided to try a different method. Brined, then smoked. Came out great!
First, brined over night in a brine recipe I received from a friend at work. Only brined for 14 hours, but will do it for at least 24 hours in the future.
After brining...
I love watching Malcolm Reed How to BBQ Right videos (as well as BPS videos) to help me get away from the standard ribs, pulled pork, brisket, tri tip syndrome. I decided to follow his stuffed flank steak video:
Stuffed Flank Steak on Big Green Egg | Grilled Flank Steak with Malcom Reed -...
Choice Tri Tip from Costco (looks prime to me):
Balsamic Glazed and seasoned with BPS Money and Double Secret. In the fridge:
After a few hours, on the MAK on smoke for an hour:
Raised to 275F after an hour on smoke. Held temperature until Tri Tip was 142F:
Rested for 20 minutes and...
First time to try this. For the most part I followed youtube video from Malcolm Reed of How to BBQ Right. Came out real good.
First off, I only had an 8 bone roast. Made it difficult to make into a crown, but did my best. Seasoned with BPS Little Louis with Black Pepper and then BPS Money...
I made a rack of lamb with a couple of new sides using recipes from the following:

First, a rack of lamb cut in half and seasoned:

I cut the mushrooms and shrimp much smaller and made the sauce thicker. Then I made a Mexican...
It California, that means something different to many people! :eek: But since this is a Pelletsmoking forum, I am sure you know what I meant!
Inspired by what I consider the best Fattie post of all time by Jeanie (cowgirl)...
I have always used photobucket, but lately has been less than satisfactory. Anyone use something else? I want to post, but Photobucket makes it impossible.
Finally found a whole packer brisket at Costco a few weeks ago and it was USDA Prime for a very good price. After reading several posts by BP, Malcolm Reed, and others, I decided not to trim comp style, but leave most of the fat and just put it on. I did not inject, and only rubbed with Cash...
Being in California, I have never seen whole packer briskets at Costco as many talk about. Today, I went to Costco and found whole packer briskets, and they were PRIME for much less than I have found Choice in the area. Obviously, my plans have changed on what I will be cooking over the next...
