    Hello from Southern California

    after spending a lot of time perusing the articles on the site in hopes of improving my skills on the Webber 22" grill I bought 6 years ago I "discovered" that my secret technique of offset grilling isn't really a secret and not something invented by me. To be honest I did know I wasn't the first person to think of it but I had no idea there was a tool to make it easier. I received a slow and sear this week and with it a trial membership to the full site so I thought it would be a perfect time to come and really get better at this. I've spent 21 years as the family cook but only ever grilled mostly over cooked things unitil recently. The new toy helped me to smoke some chicken breasts last night that were among the best things I've ever made indoor or out. I hope I can finally tackle ribs soon, I've always been afraid to ruin them so I've avoided trying in the past. Sorry to ramble. Nice to be here.

                    Hey and welcome! I'm so glad to hear you like your Kettle and slow and sear combo. I'm new and looking to buy my first cooker and I'm leaning toward this combo.

                              3 burner gas grill

                              The Broil King Signet 320 is a modestly priced, 3-burner gas grill that packs a lot of value and power under the hood. Broil King’s proprietary, dual-tube burners get hot fast and are able to achieve high, searing temps that rival most comparatively priced gas grills. The quality cast aluminum housing carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

                              Green Mountain’s portable Trek 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 Trek from your smart phone or laptop.

                              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 175° to 350°F 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’.

                              Our Favorite Backyard Smoker

                              The amazing Karubecue is the most innovative smoker in the world. The quality of meat from this machine is astonishing. At its crux is a patented firebox that burns logs above the cooking chamber and sucks heat and extremely clean blue smoke into the thermostat controlled oven. It is our favorite smoker, period.

                              Grilla Pellet Smoker proves good things come in small packages

                              We always liked Grilla. The small 31.5″ x 29.5″ footprint makes it ideal for use where BBQ space is limited, as on a condo patio.
