I've been talkin about it a lot lately, figured I'd take some pics. I prepped tonight for a big BBQ monday. Got a supply of apple wood from my aunt in Vermont, she has an orchard in her backyard and lost some trees in a storm.

10 lbs of pork shoulders, 2.5 lbs of brisket, and about 5 pounds of sausage (not pictured)

French press- good man.

Its an excellent dry rub I found. Paprika, brown sugar, and onion powder are the main ingredients, and it also has some nutmeg, cinnimon, and thyme in it. I keep a big baggie of it in the fridge for whenever I BBQ, it can be used on just about any pork or beef.

hrmm its possible, the day after NJAO or something I could have a few people over my house...

No more pulled pork though, it takes too long to cook, and its a real pain in the *** to pull all that crap when its cooked.

I'd use a dry rub more often, but I've found that I chafe easily.

lol, thats funny.

12 people, 12 lbs of pulled pork, no leftover. It was destroyed.

Theres plenty of leftover sausages though, and about half the brisket.

Any good links for "real" BBQ versus grilling Thor?

Seems like a fun, if bit lengthy, way of prepping for large groups. Don't know if I have enough space on the patio... probably 6-8 feet deep, two port carhole wide.

Looks lik you have the smae grill as I do (you have the side fire box for real BBQ, I don't, yet). How is the side fire box working?

[Thordic]

Ricker - www.bigdaddyskitchen.com is where I got started. It takes a big of trial and error though. I find it fun to prepare and cook, and its rewarding at the end. It takes a lot of effort though, and it is time consuming as you have to watch the fire constantly.

hexis - Pic of my grill below, I forget the brand name. Side fire box works well so far, although for whatever reason I have trouble keeping an even fire in it, it only likes to burn on the side with the air vent. It makes maintaining the fire a bit of a pain, but its not a major problem. And the paint peeled off the sidebox the first time I used it, its crappy paint. The rust is superficial though, and I'm not worried about the grill falling apart anytime soon, we've had it for a couple of years now and its still in perfect shape in every way except cosmetic.

I have noticed that same effect when I do some indirect heating withing the main grill. I also got the area near the vent hot enough to fry the paint.
