tyrion Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Nice grills. The local dealer to me does not carry them any longer. I'm hoping to top out at about $1800. Any higher than that would be tough.
luvdunhill Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 I really like my Napolean. The option of a infrared side burner is nice as it makes perfect tuna.
crappyjones123 Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 My first ever attempt at ribs. The lowest temp I could get the grill to be was 325 so don't know how well they will turn out but they look pretty decent to me. Jacket potatoes in the back.
VPI Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Did burgers on the Traeger. Traeger burgers are way better than Sous Vide Burgers.
tyrion Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Ribs look good CJ. I haven't tried to grill anything on the Traeger. Thursday, a 19 lb turkey and a 4 pound turkey breast (for Jp) will be smoking on the Traeger.
Voltron Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Ha! He said he was going to Whole Foods for his thanksgiving feast, but I see he got you to smoke his meat, so to speak!
tyrion Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Jp has people to smoke his meat. I am smoking his poultry.
cetoole Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Did burgers on the Traeger. Traeger burgers are way better than Sous Vide Burgers. Prove it. Please.
shellylh Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 I've decided to smoke ribs for Thanksgiving instead of turkey. Ribs are better (and I decided that I should probably not experiment on Thanksgiving). I may stick a turkey breast in the rotisserie oven.
VPI Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 Built the Dukane tonight. Very nice grill for the money.
Voltron Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 Not grilling yet, but brining a fresh ham to smoke it tomorrow. Curious how it will turn out.
VPI Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 That should be pretty great. I am doing an Apple Pie on the Traeger tomorrow as well as a couple of chickens as we are having Thanksgiving Friday when everyone is in town.
Voltron Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 Funny, I just saw a Traeger pie recipe when I was looking into the ham. Report back on how it turns out.
tyrion Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 Did someone say poe? Nice looking ham Al.
shellylh Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 Sigh... the ribs we bought have a bit of a not so great smell to them. It was from the butcher but I know that this place takes them out of the cryo-vac and puts them in the butcher case. I would have taken them back and got my money back but hubby wants to cook them. I am terrified of food poisioning. Now, we have 4 rack of ribs on the smoker that I am afraid to eat. Any thoughts rib masters?
Voltron Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 (edited) Sorry Shelly, but I have no great advice. If you trust the butcher normally, then I think it should be ok. Here is the progress on the ham. First, after 1+ hours of smoke: Now after 2+ hours of smoke: Edited November 22, 2012 by Voltron
ironbut Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 Wow, that looks awesome Al. What time's dinner?
Voltron Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 It's for tomorrow, so if you happen to be going by Mayberry then stop in.
shellylh Posted November 23, 2012 Report Posted November 23, 2012 Al, that looks awesome. I think I will try something like that next on the smoker!!! Unfortunately, I got the ribs from a good grocery/specialty store (and not a butcher shop). I ended just getting my money back. I didn't want to risk making everyone sick on Thanksgiving (although it might have been ok). We had too much food without the ribs (including a small rotisserie turkey I made) but it would have been nice to have some ribs.
tyrion Posted November 23, 2012 Report Posted November 23, 2012 Al, looks great. I forgot to take a pic of the turkey from last night.
VPI Posted November 23, 2012 Report Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) We are doing Thanksgiving today so the only grilling pictures I have are of my first Traeger pie. I hope it tastes better than it looks. Edited November 23, 2012 by VPI
