Anyone know where I can get an 18 foot hose for a natural gas BBQ? I bought a Broil King Baron on the weekend, and I need to hook it up. The hose that came with is ten feet, but I want to run it underneath the new deck rather than above, so it needs to be longer.

I assume BBQs Galore has something but if there's a cheaper option I'll go for that. Prefer not to buy on Amazon.

Try Benner plumbing on Edmonton trail, they will probably have a better price than BBQ galore.

Is this a good one? I looked at the PitBoss one which is a similar design at Cabelas and thought it would be a good replacement for my 6 rack Bradley digital.

Thoughts, suggestions? I guess I need to decide fast

Given how good the weather is, I'm amazed this thread is buried all the way down on page 3.

I recently got my first natural gas BBQ, a Broil King Baron, and damn, have I missed cooking everything on the grill. Hopefully this serves as a worthy thread bump... behold the best burger I have ever made.

Correct. One slice of hot house tomato, romaine, 1.5" thick ground chuck patty, Ford Farms coastal cheddar. Onion on top of the cheese. No slippage.

I'm so hungry. What kind of cheese did you use? Also something to try: grill your onions on the BBQ with some olive oil & salt & pepper brushed on until they start to crisp up a bit. It takes all burgers to the next level.

I kinda like the fresh cut ones, but I'll try that method. Sometimes I'll caramelize a yellow onion in maple syrup to change things up a bit... that's pretty delicious. The key to this one though was just that it was probably the thickest patty I've put on a grill and I managed to cook it just right.

As for cheese, I used Ford Farms coastal cheddar:


It's good stuff.

FYI for all the BBQers out there, Save On does happy hour from 3-7PM Tues-Thurs

Tuesdays are beef skewers (chicken breast, chicken thigh, turkey, beef or pork) in assorted sauces. Regular price beef are $5, all others $4 so Tuesdays beef are $2,50 and others $2 each. Limit 9 skewers.

Wednesdays are wings. Hot buffalo or maple bacon flavours. regular price .50 cents each, Wednesdays they are .25 cents each. Limit 24 wings

Thursday are sausages. Typically 6 varieties (hot Italian, mild Italian, apple and pork, blueberry maple, andouille, asiago/red pepper) Regular price $2 each, Thursdays they are $1 each. I am unsure of the limit.

Friday are prawn skewers. I think plain, mango chili or butter herb flavours. Regular $2 each, Fridays they are $1 each. Again, unsure of the limit.

Burgers always seem to appear in there as well, pretty sure on Thursdays. The stuffed feta burger cooked on my pellet grill is probably the best burger I have ever eaten. Patties are $2.50 or something....I don't quite remember.

I've been more or less living there with the wife and kids out of town.

i made rack of lamb tonight (for the first) on the bbq - it was AWESOME!!!


the only thing I didn’t know was how hot to have the burner on my bbq for the indirect heat. I had it on medium – which was too low (and it was taking forever for the temp of the meat to go up), so I cranked it up and it worked fantastic

I used rack of lamb from superstore – so nothing special. I also got some lamb chops – it all turned out delicious!!! will definitely make again!



sorry - no pics, but this is the recipe i used....


Grilled Rack of Lamb

Ingredients
2 racks of New Zealand lamb (8 bones each)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary

Directions
· Prepare mustard and rosemary mixture: Mix Dijon mustard, olive oil, lemon juice and rosemary in a dish.
· Remove lamb from the refrigerator. Trim off any excess fat. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the racks of lamb. Cover the lamb with mustard mixture and let lamb come to room temperature, about 20 to 30 minutes. Reserve a small amount of the mustard mixture for basting while on the grill.
· Preheat the grill to medium heat. Clean and oil the grill.
· Place the rack of lamb on grill meat side up, with ribs away from direct heat. Do not place the lamb directly over the heat, in this instance we are actually roasting the lamb on the grill.
· Cook for 14-20 minutes turning and basting occasionally with the mustard mixture.
· Remove the lamb from the grill when internal temperature is 135-140 for medium rare.
· Cover loosely with foil for 5 minutes before serving.

Sounds delicious! I use a digital thermometer with a grill clip to monitor the temps of indirect cooking. That way you know exactly what temp it is on the area of the grill that your meat is.

my problem was this...

what the heck is medium heat? it would have been better if they gave an actual temperature. i had thermometers in both the rack and the chops so it was easy to see where they were at for temperature. when their temps weren't really moving i just increased the temp of the bbq

Was at Costco South today. The Costco gods continue to mock Canadianman with the still priced at $799 Louisiana Grill.

Still had the Napoleon and Webers.

What’s everyone using for a thermometer? Not wanting to spend a ton but like the dual ones.

Maverick remains the most popular option, but there are certainly new App-enabled thermometers coming on market by the week.

I just use a basic Oxo digital one. Grilled some pork tonight and it worked just fine. Not sure why it needs to be complicated. Maybe I'm missing something.

this is what i have - but it's the 'older' model and white in colour


https://www.amazon.ca/Maverick-Range...gateway&sr=8-3


i've been really happy with it. being able to monitor not just the temp of the smoker but also the meat at the same time is great!


a buddy of mine has a similar system, but his sends the info to his phone - he's really happy with his too
