I made some a month ago with cheese and back back in the middle. I used old cheddar and they honestly sounded better than they really were. I know....cheddar and back bacon in a burger sounds too good to be true, but it was kind of underwhelming.

That holds true for roasting in the oven too. Such an easy tip that most do not keep in mind.

Should I put coals/slabs in my propane BBQ? I just inherited a BBQ from a family member who got a new one. Mine is pretty new, has the heat plate thing, but I'm wondering if I should also be putting rock/stone down?

Hey that's my saying, then I add the neighbours should be wondering if they should call 911

My split chicken is a real smokey event, cough, cough

I "seasoned" my new burner,lava rock/brick mixture on Saturday by grilling 18 burgers at the same time... Wifey asked why the living room was smokey

This is my technique that produces some damn good ribs every time:

1) Remove Membrane from the backs of each rack
2) Rub a generous amount of dry rub on both sides of the ribs
3) Refrigerate overnight
4) Take them out of the fridge and bring to room temp
5) Get smoker up to around 210-225 Fahrenheit and smoke for about 3 hours
6) Throw your ribs in aluminum foil or a pan (with a top) and add a splash of apple juice and put in oven at 210-225 for about an hour
7) Sauce them up then either throw em back in the over without the top for about an hour or throw em on the grill for a few minutes
8) Eat with some home-made slaw, cornbread and bbq beans

Oh and for the sauce, i've made a ton of home made stuff, but I keep coming back to PC's Smoking Stampede Beer & Chipotle Sauce. It's just unreal.

For BBQ if you are a condo owner who only owns a car, then Home Depot is where to get the BBQ. I bought my Weber from them last year, yesterday was my first grilling attempt of the spring and it was magnificent.

Why is it BBQ season now? Why does BBQ season have to end? At least once a week, usually more, I cook something on the grill. Just because it's cold out, doesn't mean I'm going to stop eating steak. A little trick I learned, is to put on a coat when it gets chilly out.

The same reason there's a hockey season, or fishing season. You can play hockey 365 days a year, but there's still an optimal time to do it. Grilling a steak every now and then in the winter is one thing. But I'm pretty sure most people in Calgary wouldn't sit outside for 6-8 hours in January while smoking a brisket.

Not to mention the cold and wind would make it hard to maintain the right temperature.

I've been playing around with indirect heat with my BBQ. I seem to burn anything and everything on my grill with 3 elements.

What I've started to do is place the meat on the left side, run the middle at low heat, and crank the right.

Had steaks the other night that were cooked amazingly, as far as what I've been able to produce out of my BBQ. I still monitor the overall heat of the BBQ, but I find this works out well, if you can seperate the temp of your elements.

Gonna throw out some love for BBQd asparagus as an awesome side dish. Here's my recipe:

- Get asparagus and cut off the bottoms
- Throw it on some tin foil and marinate it in Lemon Juice, Montreal Steak Spice, Garlic and Olive Oil
- Put asparagus on top rack and shuffle them around every 5 minutes.

Muy bueno!

Don't cut asparagus. Bend it near the bottom until it breaks. That will ensure that you remove the woody part of the asparagus and are left with the good part.

If you want to poop, you'll eat some veggies with that food.
