For grilling, it's all about charcoal. Almost always HEB brand mesquite charcoal. If not that, then Kingsford mesquite charcoal.

Greetings All!

I've been lurking here for a couple of years now, joined a few months ago and I've been smoking, barbecuing and grilling for over 40 years. I realized last night when I posted some pics, that I never introduced myself. My bad!
I own a Lyfe Tyme offset smoker and a Lyfe Tyme grill (photos attached). They are manufactured in Uvalde, TX and are quality equipment through and through.
I love to cook brisket (got one on the pit as I write this), pork butts, ribs, and the occasional chicken. The grill is for ribeyes, hamburgers and sausage.
Even though I have been doing this for a long, long time, I can't adequately express my gratitude for this site. I have found a wealth of info here and have learned a LOT! Thanks!

Welcome brother from up Katy way. I had a Lyfe Tyme but sold it recently to rearrange my cooking priorities, but it was a decent offset. Look forward to what you have to offer !!

My goal is to eventually have at least one of every style of cooker….. I have work to do. Lol!

Other Gear:

Fuels Used:
Splits/Chunks, whatever I can get. Usually B&B competition. Favorites are Cherry, Apple, Post Oak, and Hickory.
Pellets, Lumberjack.
Charcoal, whatever is on sale. Currently have a bunch of KBB. Will eventually try B&B. Use whatever lump is on sale in my Ooni.
Propane, Blue Rhino.

Rubs:
Usually make my own riff’s on Memphis Dust and BBBR. Also use Meathead’s commercial rubs and occasionally try something new. I like a couple from Tuffy Stone and Kinder’s. After several surgeries, I’m very sensitive to “spicy” stuff, so I need to be careful about heat levels.
