My GMG Davy Crockett

A bit late I know but I got a GMG Davy Crockett at the start of summer.

The thing is awesome. Even the missus has confidence to use it (just like an oven for her) and I've come home to some great smoked brisket after work :)

We also got an event shelter so it doesn't matter if it looks like rain ...

Re: Help finding charcoal.....sensible priced....in winter

Sorry to ask another question, but I hope any answers may also be helpful to the OP.

Does lump wood charcoal or briquettes survive a winter in a garage? Or do we end with damp fuel in the summer?

WSM and child safety

Hi Chaps,

I'm tempted to get a smoker for next summer, either a WSM (22" or 18") or a ProQ Excel. But currently favouring the WSM 18", maybe the 22" but worried I'd end up spending a fortune on fuel the 22".

I have two young children, lad is four, youngest girl isn't walking yet. My lad LOVES the ...

Good ribs, what's the texture, look and taste like?

I can find loads of stuff on the net on the procedure of doing ribs on the kettle.

But there's very little I've found on what the end result should actually be like- makes it difficult as a newbie to understand when I've done a good job or not.

So I thought I'd ask

When I do baby back ribs in ...

Re: Burger cutter?

Just did ribs today on the weber charcoal so no burgers I'm afraid :( but my lad loved them which is so satisfying, ate his twice as quick as me then came round the table to pinch mine :lol:

I've never considered a chefs ring before. What temperature is that cooked at?




:D

Burger cutter?

Hope you've all had a good bank hols

I have burgers in my mind. Mmmmmm burgers!

For the BBQ , we usually make our own. We tried hand forming but found we spent so much time messing about trying to get them the right shape and size that we got a burger press. This makes ok burgers, but its not ...

Re: Help for charcoal/briquette source

Sorry to be discussing butchery on a thread I started about charcoal, but since its already happened I guess continuing makes no difference

Re: Help for charcoal/briquette source


Last weekend I picked up a kilo and a half of "proper meaty ribs" for £7, there was virtually no ribs just delivious porky goodness, fed the family and had enough left over for adding to a pork and beans pot to feed 4 again.

Cheaper then the supermarket, better than the supermarket and a much ...

Re: Hi everyone, from the North West of England

Yes, I use a maverick 732(think) two probes, one for meat one for chamber, wireless to 300ft it's v good

I guess you use this with the Pro Q Excel, which is something I'm tempted to get for next year maybe. But I think I need to learn the weber kettle as best I can- I find I'm tempted to blame my ...
