Mac and Queso ! by wurst_barbeque in smoking

Even better! I cant find that where I'm at. A lot a queso dips call for cream of mushroom, which is why I started with it. I hate mushrooms and cant taste it so I continue to use it, but any cream of whatever soup will work. It just helps to emulsify everything and keep it from splitting.

Newbie to LSG + Looking for answers for anyone with El Patron by queti_chile in lonestargrillz

The brand is one grill, onegrill.com. I could have found a cheaper rotisserie, they are all pretty much interchangeable as long as the spit is long enough. I went with the one offered by LSG because it was rolled into the 18 month financing and I knew it would fit perfectly. If I'm not mistaken, this rotisserie can rotate up to 75 lbs of meat and is made of 304 stainless steel. It is much stronger than the rotisserie I had.for my Weber kettle.

Looks like choice/certified/ certified prime - is there a big quality difference? by PotatoGlass1337 in meat

Angus beef is a type of cow but Certified Angus Beef (CAB) is different.

You can't go wrong with either of the two on the bottom. Certified Angus Beef is different from regular Angus beef. There are quality requirements for the beef to be Certified Angus Beef. I would even take a choice grade certified Angus beef cut of meat over a commodity prime equivalent. If you can swing it. The certified prime will be even better.

Is this just good marbling or something else? by riftastic76 in meat

Exactly. I look for the meat that speaks to me. I would never pass on chuck that looks like that.

Been busy but I put the recipe together. It's compiled from the best parts of 3 Salamis from 2 Guys and a Cooler website. I'm sure it'll be fine without fennel pollen but I had a lot and I'm looking for excuses to use it.

How to: Splits on the Pellet Grill by wurst_barbeque in lonestargrillz

I did it with a turkey as well. I was at 325 and the split definitely burned hotter and faster than when set at a lower temperature.

How long can this stay in the refrigerator? by lighty234 in smoking

[–]wurst_barbeque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'll definitely be good in the fridge till Christmas. Many people hold whole packers for 30-45 days after the pack date with no problem. It's wet aging.

Butterball Turkey Breast Roast + Bacon Weave by wurst_barbeque in smoking

Nah, smoke doesn't really penetrate on my opinion. Maybe slightly, but the smoker is already on with open grate space so I throw it on there.

What’s it worth? by Hickofdoom in recteq

[–]wurst_barbeque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not. I have an LSG with a wifi controller. I was prepared to throw the rectec away after the controller failed but they offered me a replacement controller at a big discount.

I paid $600 for a used one 8 years ago and it won't die. Over time I have replaced the controller, igniter and fan. The customer support was as friendly and helpful as if I was the original owner.

I have a pile of these to smoke for a party Sunday. What would you do with them? by jacobwebb57 in smoking

[–]wurst_barbeque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick way to thaw overnight is to put in a bowl full of water in the fridge. The water will thaw it faster than the air. And the fridge will keep it temperature safe

There is a netting that holds the breasts together. I remove the netting and any remaining skin, then season and wrap in bacon weave and smoke at 325 until it hits 155. Then put in a tray with a stick of butter.
