Cheers, Ordered one up from Amazon should be here tomorrow thanks to Prime. Can anyone recommend any links or reading material to help a noob figure out how much wood chunks to add for long smokes? Both beer can chickens I've done at 325F have burned through what I thought was an decent...

So, you do SEO/Web Marketing work spending long hours with few breaks on client websites for a low wage without complaint right?

I'm not the OP, but I'd definitely be interested in seeing that link, and hearing more about bacon smoking.

Here's mine. Did a smoked beer can chicken on as a first smoke to get used to it with some hickory & pecan. My wife wouldn't stop raving about how good the chicken was, and stole all the leftovers for herself :drunk: lesson learned, next time do two chickens at once.

I almost never tip a to go order, unless they do something that goes above and beyond them putting my food in a box and in the bag. I always tip delivery people be it curbside or to my house, and I always tip servers unless the service is beyond terrible. I've never had a gratuity...

Did a smoked beer can chicken last night with a bit of hickory & pecan at 350ish for just about 100min until it registered 160F in the breast. I then let it rest for 20 min before carving it up. I need to figure out how much wood is needed for a full long smoke. I used 1 big handfull of...

After 2 years of saving, and searching for a used one, I finally pulled the trigger on a new BGE. Got it all put together (which took far longer than I thought it would), and did a 3lb tri tip on it to test it out. I forgot how good meat done over lump tasted as I've been grilling on...

I've made it before with as little as .5 IBU / Gravity point (30 IBU to .060) and while there was more malt, it was never too malty. Hopefully yours will still turn out enjoyable. I typically do .3oz/gal dry hop with this beer to stretch my Simcoe, but I've never complained about .5oz/gal...

Hrnm. If you really hit 1.064OG you're going to be pushing 6.9 - 7.2% depending on how well you attenuate which puts you more in the IPA range but only slightly hoppy. You can increase dry hopping a bit for more aroma and some flavor, but your bittering isn't going to change at this point...

It costs roughly 70M a season, 6-7M per episode, that's uhm.. $115k per minute :drunk: GoT has a bigger budget than ROME, which is a concern as it was production costs that caused that series to be cancelled after only 2 seasons. GRRM has stated tat he's given the basic plot outlines for the...

Passedpawn was suggesting a compromise, it wasn't a concession from what I saw. Just because she came into the marriage knowing he brewed and liked to have some drinks doesn't mean the situation can't have changed does it? Here's a real world example for you. My wife and I have been...

Though likely to yield more positive results than asking beer advice from a marriage therapist no?

Maybe you're just interacting with the wrong women? My wife is nothing like that, but it's unreasonable to insist that everything is 100% equal at all times. Marriage is about sharing your life with someone, not making sure everything is fairsy.

I've always been a fairly avid reader, but since getting my kindle I've really upped the frequency at which I read. Lately I've been chewing through the Dresden files (up to #9) and according to goodreads I've read 10 books so far this year.

I guess it depends on who you ask. To you it's obviously acceptable, to your wife it isn't. I never drink 6 beers in an evening anymore.. I don't think I've had a time when I've consumed six beers across an entire day/evening in the last 2 years. Then again I have a 2yr old son, and I...

I threw together a chili last night using 2lbs of left over brisket, 3lbs of fresh chuck and 20oz of chorizo. I sautee sweated the onions & garlic in my vanilla bourbon porter and then deglazed the pan with more vanilla bourbon porter and browned the chuck and chorizo in it. Threw everything...

^ That Plus, there's a good chance she's at least partially right. You didn't say how often you drink, but mentioned up to 10 beers. That's a lot of alcohol and calories and you already said you're a big guy. That puts you at much higher risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attack...

I've been eyeballing this for filtering out dry hops and maybe for when i do fruit beers as well. http://www.brewershardware.com/FILTER1.html Curious to see what you sketch up.

I personally wouldn't add any maltodextrin as it's mashed high enough to retain enough body to match the commercial version, but YMMV. I currently carb in the keg with co2 by setting it to serving pressure (12psi for my system) and leaving it alone on the gas for 2 weeks. I've personally never...

Glad I found this thread. I just sliced up a brisket for dinner, and plan to use at least 1-2lbs of the leftovers with soem chuck and chorizo in a double batch of chili. We can't always finish it in time so often give some away, but now I think I'll can a couple quarts for eating later!
