Hi,

Is there a lifespan for when smoking woods and charcoal should be used by? I bought some apple wood, cherry woods over a year ago and not had the chance to use it all. I presume they would still be good to use. I also bought some BIG K charcoal over a year ago and still have a couple of bags ...

Any ideas for this year?

Anyone tried goose or duck?

Hi,

Maybe a bit early but what are people planning to make for Christmas Dinner.

Last year I did Turkey in my ProQ but fancy making something else. Any recommendations?

Thanks all

Thank you Stu.

Is the restaurant grade charcoal from Marko recommended. Is it similar quality to Big K?

Thanks again.

I usually buy from Big K but please let me know if you know of any other good alternatives.

Many thanks

Hi,

I smoked a leg of lamb at the weekend after following a recipe from the amazing ribs website http://amazingribs.com/recipes/lamb/leg_of_lamb.html

Luckily, the lamb was cooked perfectly for me however I'd like to try this with different rubs.

Does anyone have any good moroccan type recipes ...

Do you guys baste or spray pulled pork during a cook?

I've read on amazing ribs that its not really recommended.

My best success uses the 8:3:1:1 ratio mix. For example, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup of Kosher salt, 2 tablespoons of chili powder/paprika mix, and 2 tablespoons spice combination.

I like using Chinese five spice, garlic powder, onion powder, and thyme for my spice combination.

Thanks Derrick ...

Yeah, all rubs I've made are home made...ive just followed the recipe.
