We had the pleasure of attending the “Keepers of the Fire” contest in Mayetta, KS last weekend.? It was their second annual event and let us tell you something………..it was AWESOME! Contest Staff There were several great attributes to this contest, but first and foremost the folks who took time out of their lives to […]
It was shortly after we had installed our Rock?s Barbecue Stoker system to the Lil? Chub and we couldn?t have been any more proud that our pit ran even better than before. On initial tests and practice cooks the pit ran flawlessly. To no fault of the Stoker, this time was different. Each year prior […]
Hot Grill on Grill Action’s Sweet Cornbread: The folks that attended our first event at the Bottomless Glass got to try these. Those that had attended both events did not get to eat them the second time. For this, I have caught a hat full of crap. Where’s those corn bread muffins maannnnn. I can’t […]
Well folks, I wanted to take a trip down memory lane and explain the beginnings of our lives in the competition BBQ world.? If you?ve paid attention to some of the other posts there?s some history there related to how we started out and whom we owe credit to for us getting started, but no […]
As everybody knows, we swear by the Weber Kettle. So, when we see something out there that may make it better we want to try it. Ever skeptical in things that can make a perfect rig better we felt obligated to put it to the test. If you started out like most of us you’ve […]
This competition season started no differently than any other.? Everyone on the team bought their ingredients to make their first rub of the year in hopes to create the perfect combination of spices.? As always, everyone bought a few “store bought” rubs to try as well.? We know, we know, some?folks believe?a true BBQ guy […]

This post is geared towards spare ribs but all in all prepping baby backs is the same minus a trimming or two. When you go to buy ribs you?ll more than likely see either spare ribs or baby back ribs.? At your grocery stores you may only see one or the other and more typically […]
There’s a misconception out there that you must have a smoker to slow cook meats.? Hang on kettle lovers, bear w/?me for a second.? What I’m trying to point out is that?there’s a lot of people that don’t understand that the?Weber?Kettle is?in my opinion, the most versitile rig for the money and you don’t need […]
My quest for great BBQ all started back in 1999.? My wife and I, newly married, moved from Omaha to KC.? You would think that KC would be capable of providing the BBQ I was after with places like Little Jake?s, Winslow?s, Arthur Bryant?s and Hayward?s but as delicious as it all was (and is), […]
This glaze was used at the Greater Omaha BBQ Society?s Nebraska State Championship on the spare ribs we turned in.? It is sweeter than one would expect by simply reading the ingredients.? The Jack Daniels in combination with the brown sugar makes for a sweetness one would expect from a KC style glaze yet it […]
