What Are You Chef-ing Tonight, Dr?
I think it's going to be leftovers for us; and I feel the urge to bake some professional cookies using a recipe derived from the scientific method. Posted by (I'd have to look) on my cookie thread. Tasty Beverage: Dr Pepper

SRF Gold brisket worth it?
We have a couple of friends coming over in a few weeks, and I am tasked with a brisket. I usually buy Prime from Costco, but I have wanted to try the SRF, and it is currently on sale https://snakeriverfarms.com/products/brisket?variant=48973221232955& Have any of you tried this? Worth the price difference, especially when…

Thanksgiving Turkey Cook Time
I have had the experience now for about three years in a row that my Thanksgiving turkey always finishes way ahead of what all the various references predict. I pretty much follow the "Mad Max" method with a few minor variations. Here are the key points from this years setup: * 20.39 lb turkey injected with 50/50…

nothing special, just dinner
Shepherds pie and while the fire was on, roasted a butternut for future soup (although some of the neck was sliced up for dinner as well). did both for about an hour at 375F and then removed the assembly and put the butternut face down on the SS grill for some charring. could have left in on for a bit more, but it was…

Return of FaceDance - Thanksgiving 2025
Repeat of last year… two 3+ pound skin-on boneless turkey breasts wrapped in a warm subtle bacon blanket. Barely any leftovers… just enough for one sammich.

Carbonnade Flamande (Flemish Beef Stew) with Fresh Stecca, Salt and Vinegar Smash Potatoes and Salad
Hosted two neighbour couples on Friday. Bought a full packer and broke it down into portion-sized chunks. Trimmed aggressively to remove as much fat as I could. “Staged” the cook by organizing ingredients according to each step in the recipe. I adore this approach. Started by seasoning the beef and browning each side of…

November Anagama Firing For Butter Keepers
So far I have the following folks looking for a butter keeper for November's firing of Ahi-Kaa-Roa: @caliking @Gandolf @lousubcap (2) Please confirm you are still interested. I plan to keep the batch size to 10 again so there is room for 6 more. I'll verify the price with my Aunt and add $10 to cover the re-shipping.

OT - For Car Lovers: Some Recent Exotic Spottings
Have come across quite a few exotics/fun cars as of late - many of which I had previously only seen on paper/monitors. I have always loved cars but have never owned anything too extravagant. A 2011 5.0 was my wildest buy to date, and I suspect the future holds only family-appropriate vehicles, so the sun may have set on…

Friday night and the EggHead Forum option of the forum choices is eerie quiet- I need to get a life!
The title says it all. Chasing the end of the not so endless summer comes to mind. Guilty here as no BGE cook rolling tonight and playing with live fire Saturday. Surely Friday night shenanigans are on the horizon. Edit for fat finger correction.

Turkey Day Trepidation
This year I wanted to try Meat Church’s Mexican Turkey Breast for the main. It’s basically a turkey breast marinated in a 28-oz can of pickled jalapeños overnight, then sprinkled with a “give-me-your-moneyyy!” Meat Church rub (I’ve got a stupid-large collection of Dizzy Pigs, will use one of those). The detail of his cook…

Lump Charcoal
Being a new Egger and still on my first bag of BGE charcoal, my question is....are there any other brands of lump charcoal that are as good as the BGE brand?
