BBQ gas is helping to cool a warming planet

A widening array of national-level regulations, prompted by the United Nations-backed Kigali Amendment on HFCs, are gradually pushing hydrofluorocarbons out of the market.

Stellar Hog in St Louis

We've been twice now on road trips. It's completely worth it. Great service, loved the ribs and the brisket. And the sides are stellar. by denvergardener

I kept doing BBQ math wrong, so I built a free calculator to fix it.

Hey everyone, I love smoking meat, but I have a bad habit of messing up the timing. I tend to underestimate the stall, or I forget to factor in the rest time. My family ends up eating brisket at 9:30 PM, or I’m waking up at 2 AM to do mental math on when to [...]

First time making some bacon in a long time! Doing a dry cure with #1, kosher salt, and maple sugar. One has a shot of Bourbon in the cure so we’ll see how that turns out. Should be ready to take out of the cure and smoke in about two weeks!

Spray meat with vinegar before grilling to prevent the health risks that come from charring!

(I randomly came across this info while reading up apple cider vinegar so I am sharing for the BBQ aficionados amongst us.)

@ShaulaEvans I'm intrigued! Have you tried it?

@ShaulaEvans Works also on plant based protein and sugar but I would have to 🙀 at that suggestion. The browning reaction is indeed blocked by acid, that's why acidic marinade *must* be wiped off before grilling.

Not having a browning reaction (Mayard?) moots the entire point of the grill. No more extra umami. Might as well slow cook or steam it then.

And yes, I'll die younger for extra umami. It's worth it. Sorry for the strong language 😅

@iwein You were close: Maillard.
@ShaulaEvans too lazy to look it up, and too slow to remember. But at least I didn't ask chatgpt 🙇‍♀️

@ShaulaEvans and charring is a different beast. I don't think that gets slowed down by acid, but does get slowed by water ofc

If I'm ignorant of some of the chemistry here I'd love to learn, so please don't take offense at my very emotional first reaction 🤣
