      Not been there as it’s north suburb, but have been thinking about a visit for charcoal after hearing their radio ads. But throw in some Black Swan and I’m on it. Love the sauce.

      Also wife said she’s down for the visit, which will keep the MCS in check.

    This is a definite maybe. But if I get out of there only buying some barbecue sauce, it'll be a miracle.

    I grew up in Evanston, but I don't think I'll be making the drive from Snoqualmie.

    Was good meeting you and your son, and nice to find a good BBQ store.

    Wee bit high pressure on the sales of very upscale cookers, but a nice wide selection of rubs, sauces and interesting things, and premium charcoals. I finally saw the all charcoal pellets in the wild (didn't buy, don't use the Grilla for higher temp stuff, so don't see the point, other than as a mix in), saw Jealous Devil pellets in the wild (didn't know there was such a thing) and picked up some B&B lump for the OJB. Also got some sugar maple and mesquite chunks for the OJB, and am making the wife a Black Swan convert, which is impressive, since she's a die hard Sweet Baby Ray user. She actually mixed some Beso del Fuego into her SBR for the baby backs I did on Sunday. Got some steak sauce, some char crust, a bottle of OG Black Swan and a Beso del Fuego... and a can of Meat Church Honey Nut (or whatever they call it).

    Your kid is a hell of a salesman... if you are proud of him, it is well deserved. Again, great meeting up with one of the mods/authors of the site.

        He sells the sauce, and you chat the folks while he's prepping their sample... smooth operators.

      Fireboard: The Ultimate Top Of The Line BBQ Thermometer

      Fireboard Labs Product Photo Shoot. Kansas City Commercial Portrait and Wedding Photographers --Kevin Ashley Photography
      With the ability to monitor up to six temperatures simultaneously with either Bluetooth or Wifi on your mobile phone, tablet, or computer, Fireboard is the best digital thermometer we've tested.

      Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


      This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp's dial from 175o to 350oF and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin'.

      GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


      GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

      The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


      The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

      Finally, A Great Portable Pellet Smoker


      Green Mountain's portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it's also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

      Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

      If you're using oven mitts at the grill, it's time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder's gloves. They're heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned. Our Fave.

      The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


      The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
