Kettle Pizza Review: BUY IT!

I was able to get my hands on something that I’ve been wanting to try for a very long time.  The Kettle Pizza attachment unit for the 22″ Weber Kettle Grill!  As you may know, pizza on the grill is one of my favorite things to cook and I’ve written a few articles about it here on BBQ Revolution.  Our family loves to eat pizza and I really don’t think there is any better way to eat it.

HOT Oven Holiday Prime Rib! Cooked to Perfection!

Here is a quick post on a great way to cook a prime rib PERFECTLY…just in time for the holidays! 

First, when purchasing a Prime Rib, consider all of this:

  1. Purchase a bone in prime rib roast
  2. Have the butcher ‘Chine’ the roast, which is to ask the butcher to mostly cut the bones from the roast for easy separation after cooking.  After the butcher chines the roast, he should tie it back together with some string

Our experience at ‘The Jack’ 2011

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Jack Daniel’s World Championship in Lynchburg, TN – what an honor to be a part of it.  I think our entire team understood the prestige behind this event as much as we could before heading out, but I’m not sure we had any idea just how big and awesome this event actually is.  It was simply the coolest experience of our team’s history, hands down.

BBQ Hot Tamales

I absolutely love Tamales….and have for quite some time now been on a quest to create Mexi-Q with all my leftover BBQ!  Brisket Chili, Chicken Enchilladas and Tacos, Pork Enchilladas and more.

Here is a recipe I made with some smoked chicken that turned out awesome!  It was my first crack at homemade tamales….and though it was mildly time consuming – it was well worth it.

Here are the ingredients:

  • 6 cups Corn Mesa Mix
  • 6 cups Chicken or Beef broth (match with meat selection; chicken broth for pork)
  • 1/2 cup corn oil
  • 2 tsp salt

Weight Calculations and Servings

Hello all!

I was performing some searches online to find the finished cook weight of an average whole chicken and it became very frustrating when I couldn’t find ANYTHING!

I have a general idea – but wanted other opinions.  After no luck, I decided to cook 6 birds and get the average.  With that – I decided it would be valuable to post a general overview of all the meats we’ve cooked, provide their finished yield and our estimate tools for serving a party, catering an event or otherwise.

What in the world is this website???

First and foremost, this website is really a diary of recipes that my BBQ teammates and I have tried.  All of us are authors here, so you’ll see all kinds of variety from our competition BBQ recipes to various dishes we make at home with our families.

The idea is to ensure we don’t lose or forget anything we try…..I think….and along the way – perhaps we’ll give someone an idea to try on their own or inspire someone to take what we have tried and share it here.

Rocco is a thief…

Last year, the team Louie Hewis and the “Q” (now called Hot Grill on Grill Action) got together to run all the Weber WSMs we had.  It was a ton of fun and will need to post some pics of the food…it of course turned out great.

I do believe we had around well over 100lbs of meat on these 5 bullets, which is impressive.

Look closely….and you’ll see Logan’s dog Rocco in the background with what looks to be a butt bone.

Damn you Rocco!
