The Grillin Fools tackled this three different ways. The first was my take on the classic dish which can be found by clicking here. This is the second installment which was done by my father, Greg – Smokin’ on the Water, Thomas. He took one of our favorite methods for doing pork loin or brisket [...]

With St. Patrick’s day just around the corner and the typical fare of corned beef and cabbage on the menu, the Grillin Fools thought we would do these traditional favorites our way. My father and cousin, Greg – Smokin on the Water, and Tom – the Big Green Eggspert, will have their own twists on [...]

A previous post, Beer Butt Chicken Stew, featured the birds smoking on the grill over a pan of vegetables and broth which allowed us to capture all the flavorful drippings from the birds in the stew below. Now that “comfort food” weather has arrived I thought the same process should be applied to beef chuck [...]

One of the hardest things to teach people about grilling is dealing with ever changing circumstances that may or may not be out of their control. Grilling on a muggy summer day is much different than grilling in a blustery Autumn day and certain things should be done to account for the different weather. Grilling [...]

The Grillin Fools are big steak eaters. Rib eyes, NY strips, porterhouses, filets, whatever. You name it and we like to grill it and have even more fun eating it. Off the beaten path a bit is the flat iron steak. It’s not nearly as popular as its brethren mention above but we still love [...]

I did Chicken Fajitas/Quesadillas in the past but I decided to kick them up a bit with some beef in the form of some flank steak, some blackened peppers, and a Caribbean marinade.
This dish has a lot of components to it but once you get the process down it’s just too easy. This is also [...]

I’ve been talking about brining a lot lately which is soaking usually chicken or pork in a salt water solution to make the meat more juicy, tender, and flavorful. How is this possible? Doesn’t salt dry things out? Well, yes if you use enough salt long enough. But if done properly salt can do some [...]

We have been discussing ribs a lot lately here at Grillinfools.com because we know a big BBQ weekend is coming up on the 4th of July. We figured that a lot of our fellow fools would be looking for ideas for what may be the quintessential BBQ food.

We have done spare, St. Louis style, baby backs and country style ribs which are all pork. But why do we have to limit ourselves to just pork? Why not beef ribs? Oh, sure, many of you have heard negative things about beef ribs:
They’re tough.

Yes, the Grillin Fools realize that everyone knows how to grill a burger. Grillin a burger is something even the most novice backyard BBQer can do with ease. In fact the grilling of the burger is the easy part. Making the bland burger into kicked up masterpieces is the hard part. Not that hard, but [...]
