I tend to take a break from grilling from about mid November to mid January. It’s not because it’s too cold. I like grilling in the cold more than the oppressive heat of the St. Louis summers. It’s because all the holiday stuff going on that time of the year that I don’t get much [...]

Tamales, Campfire Fish Tacos, Grilled Guacamole, now carne asada? Is there a pattern here or is it just innate skills at work?

With the success of the Reverse Seared Pork Steaks I decided to try the method with country style ribs.

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:

Beef brisket is a pretty tough cut of meat that if done properly can be pretty stellar. Usually it requires an acidic marinade for about 48 hours (or more) and slow and low cooking to the tune of 225 degrees for 1.5 hours per pound plus an hour for resting. This brisket was marinaded less [...]
