Anybody do this?

I'm not talking about hamburgers and hot dogs on a sunny Saturday afternoon. I'm talking about talking the toughest pieces of meat(brisket, ribs, etc...), cooking them for 4+ hours, and having it melt in your mouth like butter; it's and art.

You KC people into it?
I know it's really big there.

Anyone can do burgers and hotdogs. We do corn on the cob, various veggies, fish, ribs, chicken etc. As a matter of fact we did corn and steaks just this past weekend.

Just today me, my brother-in-law and some friends did a BBQ under my building. It was all good, hot dogs, burgers, steaks, veggies, chickens, wings, you name it. All until my asshole neighbors woke up and said we weren't allowed to BBQ under the building. Which sucks cuz we don't have a porch. Freakin assholes.

Salmon steaks on Ceder board....oh baby

You guys use a smoker or a regular Grill like a Weber?

I try to do ribs on a Weber charcoal; it's a lesson in cordination and patience.

I'm essentially lazy, I use propane at the moment. I have an old weber but havent used it in years.

You do ribs on a propane!?
I've tried that with results that, well... the dog really liked em'.

Ribs are my favorite.
Though very fatty, you can get them just right where the fat flavors the meat and melts off at the end of cooking.

* I wanna try that Cedar Plank-method.

Cedar plank is incredibly easy. Hard part is finding the planks. We have bought them packaged in planks of 2 but I dont see why you couldnt use some cedar siding. Soak the plank in water for anout an hour. The fish goes on top of the plank, the plank goes on the grill and give it a few extra mins to cook than you would normally. You wont have to turn the fish at all. Expect the plank to char on the bottom (thats where the flavor is coming from) and dont be tempted to use it more than one time. Its a big hit at the M&M house.

Yeah I use propane on ribs.....my results may be different than yours though.

Regarding cedar planks. I buy scraps from the lumber yard. They always look at me like I'm nuts when I first ask for it, then get interested when I tell them what I'm doing.

Soak it in a garbage bag with red wine (cheap stuff) then throw the fish in for half an hour or so before you start cooking.

Some people can't think for themselves so they vote democratic

I'll invite you after all the renovations have been done and it doesn't look like I'm testing missiles.

As a consolation, I'll give you, if you want, a good recipe for oven-cooked ribs.

I read about the cedar planks on the net.
That'd be better than the straight grill because I'm not left with that fishy smell.

Last example of quality time with the grill included a couple of deer steaks my brother gave me. He had some to spare after watching a deer run headlong into a metal gate and break it's own neck.

They wail and wail because matt hale went to jail. Wait a minute, that rhymes!

Just make sure that they're not treated with anything. Don't know how you could strip/clean 'em if they were, but hopefully they're not treated with some kind of "all-weather sealant" or whatnot.

If nothing else, you might be able to put a bunch of cedar chips into something like a foil pan with water in it, then lay a small grate on top of it, put the fish on that, etc... dunno how that'd work, but it might be a solution if all you have are cedar <b>chips</b>.

I've only really done burgers and hot dogs. I'd like to get more into it though. House first, then grill, then cooking.

I'm refering to cedar siding as far as clapboard goes. They arent treated with anything as cedar has a natural ability to ward off bugs and rot.

Ahh one of my favorite things,you just can't beat the flavor although i have never tried cooking on the cedar!

We grill assorted meat and veggies mostly (that is we would if the BBQ didn't have a slight "accident" from a nasty storm at the end of last year.) It will be repaired soon! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

The hotel we stayed at for Red Flag served salmon on bamboo. That was pretty good.

If I put them on my propane, which is very primitive, they become very, very tough. If you use indirect cooking with the grills that have the 3 burners, it can be done and done good.

I use natural wood charcoal. That's hard because it's very irregular-shaped and it doesn't fully light in the charcoal-starter. I believe I have to use more than I previous do.

Nice BBQ! Today Queensday in the Netherlands. I am gonna BBQ with friends. Meat, salad and drinks <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

Salute
