An unusually warm day today in SLC. We got our shipment of Big Poppas Cash Cow in and I was itching to cook something. I can see why Sterling is so excited about this new rub. We did a really simple prep, The rub is really ground fine so I mixed some up in two cups of water and injected it...

Our results 17th chicken, got a great call with 3rd place ribs, 63rd pork and 65th brisket, 29th overall. Really felt good going into awards, especially about our pork turn-in. Just goes to show, you never know. We also competed in the "I know jack about grilling" contest. It's a blind box...

I got tired of seeing that other thread, Sooo I just wanted to thank MAK Grills for building a Kick A$$ cooking machine.

It's the super bowl of BBQ, good luck Sterling. Cook great and get lucky in KC!

Cooking for some friends today.

Amy my cooking partner/wife is in charge of the chicken on our team. She really wanted to get a 180 in chicken this year. Amy did that last time out in Wyoming. This week at Grand Junction she did it again. Back to back 180's, this time though she got a perfect 180. I'm thinking she should...

Celebrating National BBQ month. Actually it's BBQ month every month at our house. Trying out a new pork recipie today. As long as we are cooking pork, we might as well cook up a brisket too. What's everyone else cooking up?

I want to do a roaster on our 4 star. Has anyone cooked one yet? I think I could fit a 40 pound roaster, but not sure.

Sometimes leftovers are the best part. Man this was fantastic! Although we baked it in the oven, this could have easily been done on the MAK or any other grill that will get hot enough. Just mixed up an easy dough recipe in the Cuisinart. We used smoked, whole and raw mozzerella cheese, a...

What a great experience it was to get to know the folks behind MAK Grills. Bob, Kerri, Matt and Bruce were in town for the HPBExpo, which is a huge national hearth, patio and barbecue trade show. They present an award each year called the Vesta, MAK Grills are the recipients of two such awards...

We had a great time, and fared pretty well. Thanks Sterling and BPS staff!

Fired up the 4 star at the shop yesterday, and decided to give the butcher paper brisket a try. This was a classic first attempt fail, choice packer, non injected and the leanest one I could find. Cooked at 250, wrapped at 145, pulled when probed tender which was 206 on this brisket. Didn't...

Wishing everyone at Pellet Smoking a wonderful Christmas. A special thanks to BP and Kristen. Your service and products are second to none. For our family it's all about the food. My kids count how many different animal groups we consume. The record is eight, but this year we are only doing...

I'm want to replace my current brisket knife. It's got too much flex. It's a forschner, and I really like their knives, but I want one that will hold a line a little better. Suggestions? I like the looks and feel of the messermeister knives, but I'm not sure if their big slicers have a lot of...

The BPS Elite teams are GC'n like crazy. What a great bunch of cooks. It just goes to show ya, the right product (BPS rubs) in the hands of skilled pitmasters is a very hard combination to beat. WTG Sterling and all the BPS Elite teams.

One thing I love about my wife Amy, she is so creative. She just finished a little smoking experiment she's been thinking about. Had some fun trying this and the eating part was the best! One of her favorite parts of BBQ is going outside the box a bit. I hope you all are having fun cooks and...
