re: Official OS BBQ/Grilling Thread

This is obviously why they make more than one design for grills.
Each person has something different they prefer.

Im not knocking you or your choice, I just know it would drive me nuts.
Thats why I begged my wife for a new grill so I could dump my clamshell.

Agreed. I like my grill from Sam's, don't get me wrong man. It's big enough to feed a small army. But after buying the Weber smoker and having that thing hold 225 degrees for 12+ hours every single smoke, I'm a believer in their product and customer service. I've owned a CB and it didn't last 2 years on me. That's why I'd recommend one over another from my personal experience. I'll say this, you get what you pay for in a grill. Go cheap and you'll get cheap. Doesn't mean it won't cook good bbq, but will it last?

Im trying to think how long I had my CB. (I updated the pic) Thats about what I had. I'd say I had it about 6 or 7 years. The table tops warped so I had a sheet metal guy make me new ones, but other than that, it was pretty good.

Have you ever used Jimmy Deans italian sausage and bacon to make a smoked fatty? I used onions, mozzarella and mushrooms as my stuffing. Good stuff.

After I smoke the sausage like that I crumble it up and mix it with some shredded cheddar and cream cheese. Stuff that mix into whatever pepper you like and wrap that with bacon. Throw on smoker for 2 hours. Good stuff. Most stuff jalapeños but I dont always feel like messin with em.

This is basically what I had ...

I had one of those (gas) for about 12 years. I converted it to charcoal the last 6 years of its life. I pulled the guts out and placed bricks in the bin and cooked with my wood on the bricks. The handle eventually broke off the lid and I ended up bending a clothes hanger and running it through the holes where the handle connected and used it as the handle.

Not until my wife went to use the BBQ one day did she realize it was time for new one! Haha. I didn't care I can cook on anything, like you said give me a coffee and a screen and I'm good to go.

That's very similar to the one I had. The smoker box needed alot of mods. Out of the box it leaked alot of air, therefor the temps would spike and were hard to control. That was 5+ years ago.

Yeah that sucks. I think alot of companies try to make things to keep up with the market when in all actuality, they really need to stick with what they know.

Like the pork loins, we rarely have these because let's face it. They're not all that healthy with all that bacon. lol

re: Official OS BBQ/Grilling Thread

Who said anything about healthy?

This is the wrong thread for that!

I'll have to give that fatty a shot.

Ended up not doing the squirrels, went fishing instead. Managed to catch 2 lethargic bass. Came straight home, cleaned and threw on the pit. Doesn't get any fresher than that.

I like to keep it simple with fish. Light coating of worcestershire, little garlic, salt, black pepper, green onions from my garden, and lil lemon after they are done.

Also used pecan wood to smoke the fish.

Nice looking bass! Can't wait for the weather to cooperate long enough for me and my son to hit the lake on the weekends.

re: Official OS BBQ/Grilling Thread

I have a feeling I'll be going back through this thread over the next 6 months or so, testing out all these recipes.

That fish looks great. We used to live next to some very large strip-pit ponds and the bass and crappie were incredible.
