Smoking cheese - The Resting Period
Was going to tag this onto the latest cheese smoking thread, but the Search showed me the newest one was ten years old, so I’m starting a new one. I’ve been smoking different cheeses and salmon using the Amaz-n-Smoker tube, 12”. I usually do it in the late fall thru early spring, before it gets too hot outside. I know…

Beef shot rib help, please
My wife turns 57 on Saturday. I have completely run out of things to buy her, I've run the gambit and I even asked her out of desperation, "what can I buy you?" Her response was, Dan, I have everything I need. I'm sorry for not searching the forum for a recipe, and I know her favorite is short ribs. It's a sin as I have 3…

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.

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

Chicken swords
These… wow. Humbly, some of the best food I’ve taken off my egg. Chicken breast, wrights bacon, onion slices. Seasoned with a rosemary blend, chica lica garlic and herb. Heavy seasoning. Towards the end I placed some minced garlic, lemon juice and butter in a cast iron pot. Basting them. Then topped with Parmesan cheese…

Brisket..... How I do it.
First, I buy a 10-13lb packer brisket. I choose the most flexible one available and choice or prime is best. Trim fat off of meat to an even thickness. About 1/4 inch is fine. Cut up a large onion in chunks. Add onion, One 12oz beer, and one bottle of Hot and Spicy Allegro. Dump all three into a large alum pan. I prefer…

Smoked Beef Sticks
Have been meaning to try this for along time. Used lean grass feed beef, pink salt, kinders the blend and some Tonys. Didn’t want to try anything wild yet just to get my feet wet. They’re great. Egg held solid with my cyberQ at 170. Ran it for two hours to stabilize and make sure would hold that low. Added a small piece of…

Smoking ribs on the eggspander
Trying to get the most out of a cook. Has anyone smoked ribs on both levels of the eggspander at the same time? What were the results? Did the upper level get done at the same time as those on the lower level? LBGE w/ Eggspander

OT: do you suppose 2026 just isn't my year? :OT
Back in February I posted this picture when I totaled my cherry 1995 Corvette with a mere 17k miles. Then on March 1st I was taken to ER by ambulance where it was determined I had RSV plus pneumonia plus I had a nasty infection in the bones of my foot which led to a toe being amputated. That meant 19 days in the hospital…

Then make a tri tip. You know the drill. Dice it up. Now, slice up a yellow onion, cook it in a cast iron pan with som EVOO,…

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…

Warranty help with Mothership for cracked firebox
Besides calling the 800 number, does anyone have an insider I can talk to about getting a warranty replacement firebox. I tried to register but no I don’t have the original receipt from 2009.
