Put some "state fair size" turkey legs on the smoker this morning, so I'd have something to snack on.


Mind if I ask you were you got those bad boys? Look great.
Thank you. I picked them up at our local butcher shop. Had them 3 to a pack; not sure what I paid for them, but they weren't expensive. Used some cajun seasoning and a little smoked paprika on them for smoking. When I pulled them off, I drizzled them with Mike's Hot Honey before serving.

Excellent. With all the technology out there today for grilling and smoking, I still love my Weber. With a smoke stick and vortex, I can do about anything I want. Plus, there's a lot of comfort that comes just sitting outside with something on the charcoal grill, an adult beverage, my dog, and good music playing.

I decided to save the prime rib since we had way more food than was eaten on Sunday. So, I wrapped it overnight and left it in the microwave. On Sunday morning, I took it out and sliced it into four servings, about 1.5 to 2 in. thick. Wrapped each piece in saran wrap, then placed them into a zip lock freezer bag.

Today, I took 2 out to thaw for dinner tonight. I fixed a pan of au jus, then warmed the thawed slices in the pan of au jus until the chill was knocked off.

The meat had a nice, smoky flavor with the hint of the apple wood it was cooked with. It looks a little more done than rare, but it was fork tender to cut. I must say, for a frozen piece of meat, it was as good as restaurant ready. There are two more pieces in the freezer that probably won't be there after this coming weekend.

Anyone have experience replacing components of a Weber Spirit grill? The igniter isn't working (already replaced the battery), and think I need to replace the grates and flavorizer bars under the grate.

Not sure if it's worth it to do all that or just get a new grill. Really wanting to get a flat top grill...

I did the grates and flavorizer bars on mine a couple of times before it finally rusted out on me. They are easy and relatively cheap, compared to new grill, to do. I gave up on the igniter.

I have 2 flat tops. I enjoy them, but I'm more a charcoal guy so use that substantially more . I definitely enjoy cooking on them though.

Lol, he enjoyed it immensely. Made me a member of the clean plate club after I finished.

It's not grilling today, but I just put on a pot of navy beans with ham hock, to simmer all day until supper. We've got fresh collards (compliments of one of the neighbors), sweet potatoes and Mrs. BTG is fixing her better than her mama's lace cornbread to go with it.

Gonna fry up some link sausage from Smith's and fix a pan of cat heads for breakfast.

I'm sure this has been asked at some point in this thread, but anyone have a wood pellet grill? I have a vertical propane smoker now and I'm thinking about upgrading.

Just as a follow up, I replaced the igniter and was able to get Weber to send me some new grates. Need to get some flavorizer bars but the igniter replacement was relatively easy

What make/model flat tops do you have?

Not exactly grilling, although I do use them on the grill, but I just busted my big cast iron pan.

Haven't used this one in years, decided to clean it up and season it. Had it in the garage, using a wire brush on my die grinder to clean off old crust, and it fell. Cracked the side wall a bit.

$%#&$*%^$%#!!!

On a side note, it's only the side wall, so I'm going to attempt to weld it. Have watched several "how to" weld cast iron pan videos, so it can be done. Will bone up on the process and give it a try, I guess. Dammit.

Thank you Tootie, it turned out great and everyone enjoyed it. Hope you and yours enjoy a Merry Christmas!

After everyone left I retired to my "wolf den" and enjoyed some of the Christmas candy my wife and girls made along with some salted caramel Crown Royal. Good end to the night!

Just got a Traeger recently. It's pretty damn cool. I still like using the green egg because of the experience, but when I want to do a long cook during the week but can't babysit it like the egg, it's awesome. Did ribs recently and they were the best I've ever made.
