Official Grill (Cooking Outside) Thread!

I had been doing foil on the brisket but I am trying to dry out my crust a little so I started playing with paper. Might go back but still playing around. Saw a cool idea I want to try tomorrow and spray with Worcestershire sauce.

Ugh. This is the worst part of my condo, I’m not allowed to have a grill.

Fellow condo resident...not being able to grill is a huge bummer.

3,2,1 method is the best for ribs. I was missing out before I tried that route.

Brisket pretty much the same as you but its salt, pepper and I do spritz it with apple cider vinegar every 45 mins ish. I still use foil mostly (aka the Texas Crutch LOL). I need to get a wider role of butcher paper next time. The one I got the last time I tried, frustrated me to no end (user error Im sure)

I did brisket using butcher paper a few weeks back and It turned out amazing. Definitely get the 18” or wider roll...

Brisket: I'm a no wrap brisket guy. I start my cooks around 10 or 11PM the night before and let it go all night at 225. If it gets done by noon, great, but if not I just let it go. Rest in a cooler wrapped with towels and it'll be fine. I've had a brisket in a cooler for 5 hours before because it was done so early.

No picks but did pick up some pink paper at lowes in the BBQ section. Compared do foil...so much better. However, so much longer to cook. The brisket came out like beef bacon. Downed a bottle of wine in celebration.

Grilled some NY strips and Krazy Korn.

Steak has a goat cheese topping with a reduction of balsamic vinegar drizzle on it.

On Friday I did do a couple Costco pork lions with a garlic sesame teriyaki sauce.

Been on a sauce/topping kick to make the same things taste different.

If your looking for a quick substitute for goat cheese try cream cheese. My wife does not like the game-ie taste of the goat cheese and found cream cheese is great...plus it is easier to find in a pinch.

I need your opinion guys. Which grill is better for cooking chicken and burgers, kamado or gas grill? My wife and i have kinda opposite opinions on that.

Man it all comes down to personal preference. I think the kamado (egg) would make the chicken more moist. When it comes to taste there is a couple different spins. 1. some people prefer to taste meat without any time of "smoke" or other flavors. Those people lean toward gas. I group myself with the other side and prefer to have a little extra flavor added to it from cooking with wood, charcoal, pellets, etc.. No right or wrong. I will say the pellet grill is a good compromise between both the kamado and gas grills. Doesn't give you flavor but you have the ability to pick the flavor (based on the pellets you put in it). Also heats up pretty darn fast like a gas grill which is nice for weekday grilling.

Thanks man. Pellet grill is a nice idea - will look into. Btw is true that kamado grill helps you to save money on charcoal because of the heat retention?

 

[King Luis]

who's got recommendation on a good BBQ cover (60inch). Needs to be able to handle Canadian winters and summers. (-30c to +40c) including every bit of weather type. Current one lasted just over a year before it started drying out and tearing.

Blackstone Griddle. Best purchase yet!

Yes and no LOL you really should only use lump charcoal in a kamado grill. That typically cost more but in turn does burn longer. They have some lump charcoal out there that they claim can burn up to 18 house ?

Got some good stuff going tonight. Sometimes, it's all about those beans!
