Hey everyone. Just found Lanes BBQ when got interested in the sweet tea brine after TWBarbecue posted about it. I ordered it and was suprised by all the rubs and spices they offer. Pretty sure this is gonna cost me.
what are some of your favs and must try’s? I’m asking to try and not buy the one of each package!

Ok so I gave the Sweet Tea Brine a shot and DAMN!!! I turned in what my Mrs says is the best bird Ive ever cooked! To put that in context, I cook 2-3 whole birds a month as I was raised with chicken as Sunday Supper so my family has been as well. So let’s be conservative and call it 2 a month every month for 30 years give or take ….
I used Hot Dirty Bird ( wow) as a rub and the combination of the two was absolutely incredible! The skin was crisp, sweet/spicy and the meat was the most delicious, moist and tender I’ve probably ever eaten let alone cooked. Ive never had a bird explode with juice when cutting into it.
Ok Ill stop but really this is a killer brine and I will be using it until they stop making it.

PJ I’ll do a write-up on it in the next couple days. This one is drop dead simple and you can probably pull it off in that bronco if you don’t have a real grill layin around!
Thanks for the write up, and especially the pictures. Very helpful. I have a SnS insert for my kettle, but prior to that, used your method. Just wondering if you ever use any barrier on the lower grate between the charcoal side and the "indirect" side during low and slow? I used fire bricks to help create the 2 zones. It's how I was shown to do it..
I was chauffeuring my sister the other day… The one with the broken leg…
On the way back home, she asked me to stop at the apple house for a muscadine slushy…
When I got back to the car, with only one slushy, she fussed at me for not getting one, too…
I didn’t let her see what I had in my jacket pocket…
I just realized I have a bottle of their Cubano rub that I picked up at the butcher shop a few months ago because it sounded interesting. I had completely forgotten about it. It's getting bumped to the front of the line...
I think I see a pork loin in my very near future. Thanks for the reminder
