This is a touchy subject but I'm sure we can all agree BBQ amazing. Being born and raised in NC, BBQ consists of smoked pork/hog with your choice of sauce (Eastern/Lexington). There is also Texas, Memphis, KC, Alabama, etc.

Personally, I love all kinds of BBQ. I've been seriously smoking meats for the last 5 years or so. Once I've reached financial security with my normal job, I plan to retire and open up a BBQ restaurant for fun because I love smoking meats so much. I've already got a signature rub, Lexington style sauce, and sides. My BBQ slaw needs work but my coleslaw is amazing.

I would love to see what kind of BBQ you guys enjoy, like to make, or have questions about.

I'll start us off with the brisket I made a few days ago.

I know what eastern NC bbq is! I lived in Wilson. Bills BBQ (Bills closed several years ago when he died, but Marty has opened up a small store using his dads process) and Parker’s BBQ, over in Goldsboro they have McCalls, But since moving to Texas I KNOW what BBQ is!

Big Grin I'm offended. Texas BBQ ain't an also it's THE BBQ. Big Grin

In all seriousness, I like many styles of BBQ:
  • Beef - Texas is my hands down favorite style. With proper technique and rub then sauce is completely unnecessary. The ultimate Texas BBQ insult is, "it needed sauce."
  • Sausage - Once again, Texas reigns supreme. One of the things I missed most when I lived in Anchorage and Calgary wasn't I couldn't even buy the peppery sausage in a grocery store or "BBQ" Restuarant.
  • Pulled pork - Carolina style. I'm more of a Carolina mustard style than vinegar style.
  • Ribs - Memphis style. I grew up on KC style ribs, but once I had Memphis style I never looked back.
  • Salmon - Hard to beat the brine and technique I learned in Alaska

    I've never tried the Alabama white sauce style BBQ, but then again I'm not much of a mayo fan.

    Here are some Memphis style ribs I smoked on my BGE:

    Looks awesome!

    What smokers are you guys using?

    I bought a GMG Davy Crockett that I’m disappointed with.

    I ordered a Yoder 460 but they are 3 months out.

    Sadly an electric I've had for years. I'm going to upgrade to a BGE/Kamado Joe or pellet smoker this year. I was waiting for the thing to die but it still hasn't.

    I'm not even on the level of an amateur. I use an electric smoker with pre-made rubs. Frown

    I have a Kamado Joe and also a Weber Smokey mountain. The weber smokey mountain does an excellent job, better than the Kamado Joe as far as imparting smoke flavor. I like using Hickory for Pork.....and pecan wood for other things.

    I don’t have any way of posting photos, but I bought a Horizon offset barrel stick burner about two years ago. It took some learning, but I’ve really mastered pork ribs and butts. Turkey breast is also a fan favorite. Beef ribs are also pretty amazing. Brisket generally turns out pretty great too. I’ve only done maybe six or eight, I really need more practice. I’m a Texas BBQ fan, so salt, pepper, and post oak are they way I tend to cook.

    The last brisket I did was when my brother and his new wife were in town. She is a high level computer programmer that works in down town Seattle. I noticed she was picking through the meat avoiding anything with a red color. She thought that part was under cooked. I explained to her that its not under cooked. The red color is on the outside of the meat. Its called the smoke ring and its a sign of good BBQ.

    I got my first smoker about 20 years ago and have been hooked since.

    Pulled pork (using a varation of Skin's rub), ribs and lately brisket are pretty typical of the meats I smoke.

    Frequently I will throw some hard boiled eggs on the smoker for 20 minutes or so after my ribs are done - they make the best egg salad sandwiches!


    Here's a couple of pics from the last brisket...

    That looks fantastic!

    What kind of Weber charcoal grill, regular kettle grill, smokey mountain?

    How many hours?

    I just use my gas grill with a Smokemiester attachment added, works great.

    You guys are killin' me. The only smoking I've ever done was on my Weber kettle charcoal grill using the low & slow indirect method. Sort of works, but not really. It's more of a steaks, burgers and chicken kind of cooker. Maybe someday when other priorities are dealt with I'll be in a position to buy a real smoker. My brother and brother-in-law both have Traegers and my brother especially has turned out some great BBQ on his.
