    "No Can" Beer Can Chicken

    This is why I don't use the "can" when doing Beer Can Chicken. The blue color in my can koozie is from the paint on the cans!
    I use the can stand with a pan of water underneath, works great.

    Yes. Meathead did a detailed article on why the whole beer can chicken thing is bogus. Check the free side however, cooking a whole chicken on a beer can stand without the beer can is another thing entirely. Works great, even cooking, almost like a rotisserie cook.

      That's the article that made me start telling friends and family to quit doing that. All credit to Meathead! Love his articles. That's one of the reasons I joined.

      My brother and I still have a (good natured) disagreement about beer can chicken. I've thrown every point Meathead made about it but he still does it and swears by it.

      Fireboard Labs Product Photo Shoot. Kansas City Commercial Portrait and Wedding Photographers ?Kevin Ashley Photography

      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?.

      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.

      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.
