[QUOTE=firstdown;922468]Go to Harris Teeter and by their all ready cooked ribs on sale every Saturday for $7.99. Wrap in aluminum foil and heat on the grill or oven for about 30 to 40 min. Done.[/QUOTE]

NOOOOOOO! Only thing this does is save a little time. Nothing like setting up, smoking some beef, pork, chicken and having a few beers while the rest of the hood wonders what you got on the grill.

I agree but for $7.99 a full rack you cannot beat the Harris Teeter brand. I purchased 10 racks for a meeting for just over $80 and everyone thought I had spent hours cooking. I finally gave in and told the truth. Also the Harris Teeter brand BBQ sauce is great and what they use on their ribs.

Hey brother, I'm talking about using a collage of seasonings for a rub, lighting a grill and taking a quarter of your day to prepare some ribs. With a nice glaze of sauce....WHOO!

Did you ever post what you rub on your pork butts before you throw them on the grill.

Re: Who Cooks?
 

My bad firstdown, I thought I did. But here's what I used.

Brown Sugar, Seasoned Salt, Black Pepper, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Chilli Powder, A Little Cayene Pepper, Crushed Red Pepper, and Italian Seasoning.

I use al of the above plus mesquite seasoning it's bad ass!

I'll have to check that out. I'm making my rub tonight and seasoning the shoulders as well. That'll give them a little over 24 hours to marinate cause they're due to start smoking either tomorrow night or early Friday morning.

So post some pics of your process and the use of that new grill. You having a party?

I sure will! ! Starting tonight! But yeah I'm having a cookout for my 35th Birthday.

Okay fellas so here's my first photo. Swear this was the first time I actually tasted the rub first, usually went off the smell. I hope they come out pretty good.

Re: Who Cooks?
 

So what's the secret to making good fries on the grill?

I've got burgers, steaks, pork, etc. down pretty good. But when I try to accompany it with fries, the fries just don't come out right.

I found that seasoning them and wrapping them in tin foil is actually pretty good. The fries are not very crunchy though but still good

Re: Who Cooks?
 

meat only my grill. i think the frys would be too soft and not crunchy enough.

Ive been smoking burgers alot lately with a bullet smoker. Hands down cant be beat. Charcoal and hickory and just watch the temps, 20 mins have a juicy, gently smoked burger.

Just cut up some potato's (with skin on) put them in the oven on a cookie sheet or 2 and cook em' until brown. Makes damn good......Healthy fries. Try sprinkling some spice of one kind or another to enhance.
[B]Safety Tip:[/B] Pam the cookie sheet or....something or the cleanup is...heinous

Well that's what I do, basically. I cut up the potatoes, season them a bit, sprinkle some olive oil, wrap them in tin foil, and put them on the grill at high heat. Rotating occasionally.

But they either come out really mushy or burnt.

Re: Who Cooks?
 

I cut my potatoes up and put them in a grill basket, no foil, at about 350 degrees. Sometimes I use olive oil, sometimes butter. I season them afterwards. That's worked for me.

......Works great for fresh veggies as well!

Re: Who Cooks?
 

I grill a lot...and many different things and I wouldn't try fries. In foil they'll steam more than anything and straight on they burn before they cook through. A basket might keep them from burning but why not just do them the old fashion way?

Sweet potato fries, however, come out great for me on the grill

Cooking over a fire is about as old-fashioned as you can get. Lol! I get what you're saying. I don't cook the potatoes on the grill unless I'm also cooking meat. Call me cheap, but if I don't have to use multiple heat sources then I'd prefer using just one. Seems to work okay.

Re: Who Cooks?
 

I mean they're not really fries if they aren't fried.
