Get Your Grill On

Rub of the Week (and Bonus Brine!) #14 - Not Quite Corned Beef –BBQ Brisket
Ok folks, St. Patrick’s day is here, and while some folks may be content to boil a Boyle’s Corned beef with some cabbage – I know if you are here, you aren’t. Lucky for you, today’s rub is just part […]

With March Madness upon us, photocopiers in offices across America are being used to record NCAA basketball picks—for entertainment purposes only, of course. Around the water cooler (I prefer a bubbler, but that’s another story) there’s lots of talk about brackets and seeds. With the weather in suburban Boston warming up, I’m looking at a […]

More than a few months ago Chilebrown stopped by to drop off some bacon he’d made and gave me this Air-Grill thingy. It’s a hand-held, hand driven portable blower that allows you to get a jolt of constant air in to your grill or smoker fire. At first glance it felt jicky and didn’t seem […]

When I first started my blog WhiteTrash BBQ back in 2004, I didn’t know anyone in the world of barbecue.
When I first started my blog, acceptable barbecue in New York was restaurants where they’d “broil their ribs and pour in some liquid-smoke flavoring.”

What? Popcorn? Ol’ Plowboy has flipped his lid this time! I’m not talking about popcorn made on a smoker, grilled popcorn, or corn popped on an open fire. Although you can make popcorn without using a microwave, that’s not what I’m talking about.

Where popcorn, an American movie staple, fits into Monday’s […]

Ok folks I apologize … I’ve been a little slow getting your last couple rubs out. As BBQ “season” is getting close, I have been busy getting ready for competitions to kick off. I was digging through my stack of cards tonight, and it dawned on me - This will be 13 weeks of […]

I’m no food scientist, but I play one online. When it comes to grilling or BBQ, well, every expert within miles starts coming out of the woodwork to provide their tried and true way of cooking when you have a question. The variations on these experts can range dramatically. One issue […]

This is one of my favorite things to eat, because it’s quick, easy and relatively healthy. It also tastes great, because it also includes several of my favorite foods: bacon, cabbage, onions and spice.

cabbage, 1 head, chopped
bacon, 9 ounces (about 6 thick-cut strips)
2 small onions, smoked
dry rub of your choice
oil, as needed
1 chile pepper of […]

I’m itching to dust off my WSM and do some outdoor cooking, but in the suburbs of Boston, that’s not a possibility right now. Cold weather in March doesn’t mean that I can’t start working toward what will hit the smoker in April.
I’ve been flipping through some of my favorite cookbooks, looking for things I’d […]
