Not really bbq, but sitting down at my grandparents table on Christmas to a 5 course meal. The main was my grandfather's grilled ribeyes. This is for so many different reasons. -
Pecan Lodge catered my son's wedding in DFW. Great time and a great BBQ meal.Comment

Used to boat in to a wilderness camp on a 7,000' high lake in the sierras with some buddies, I did a lot of the camp cooking and always tried to surprise them. The dutch oven tricks got boring, so one year I pre-smoked some ribs but brought the entire UDS across - in a canoe. It was an epic meal.Comment

Not a single one but, the 6 MeatUps I’ve attended with many of you guys and gals. The quality of the food was only surpassed by the company!Last edited by Panhead John; February 18, 2024, 05:47 PM.Comment

10 year old me burning hot dogs on the grill with dad and taking a sip of his ice cold Coors Banquet. Man, I'm there right now...Comment

It was hotdogs on a sharpened sassafras branch over a treetop fire...dad drank Schlitz Beer back then. I totally forgot about that.. thanks for promoting such a great memory! -
Yeah i remember in elementary school hot dog day. All the kids would get on the bus with their switches that had been sharpened to a lethal point. Some kids had coat hangers straightened, everyone had a big wad of aluminum foil on the pointy end to try and save their neighbors eye. My dad would cut me a poplar switch and sharpen it. I remember piercing my dog right down the center and my bus driver who was at the fire complemented me on my technique. ☺️🔥🔥🐿️

Trash can pizza. Went camping with a bunch of friends and made a ton of pizza dough ahead of time. Brought all the fixings too. Made a real campfire and placed my pizza stone on top of the metal grate. Got that stone up to temperature, set the pizza on it and covered it with a small metal can cover. The height and size was perfect. The lid was larger than the stone allowing some heat to enter. Top heat wasn't perfect but good enough. Everybody had a great time making their pies and baking them on the fire. Lots of laughs and drinks. Everybody was impressed. We need to do that again lots of fun.Comment

I can think of better edit memories, but for BBQ, it would have to be for the first brisket I cooked. It happened after I joined The Pit, (of course!).
We had a bunch of friends over and they were wowed. I don't think I have cooked one better since.Last edited by RonB; February 19, 2024, 08:34 AM.Comment

That was the call and the reason I joined the Pit! I wanted to cook a brisket and have it be edible. My first attempt ever before the pit was a sous vide brisket and it was barely edible. I was scarred it was so bad. Then i turned out a great one in my PBC with encouragement and guidance from the wonderful people here!! 🔥🔥🐿️

I was probably 12 and me and dad were camping at Lake Texoma. I caught two 1 1/2 lb channel cats with a line I put out the night before and dad fried them up for breakfast. Best tasting fish ever, a good memory, and even the instant Folger's coffee tasted extra good.Comment

Grilling some kosher salami as an appetizer with my dad. He let me flip the salami slices years before I was trusted to turn the hotdogs.Comment
