Cooking a brisket in a pizza oven might get you murdered in Texas.
Not that it takes much, mind.
Honestly think it’s not a bad idea.
Gas BBQ
jonattonyeah Cooking a brisket in a pizza oven might get you murdered in Texas.
Lol. Or a free tow tied to the back of a pickup!
Can control the temp too.
Can’t go wrong with Weber
Completely disagree with this. Have never used a hybrid myself but my bbq is capable of cooking anything. You have vents on the sides and a lever to raise or lower the height of the coals. Just means you need to be more hands on -which is kind of the point of a bbq no?
You can stick anything directly on top of the coals to sear it and them move it away from the direct heat to the other side. Keep the lid down and let the heat do it’s thing
Place not far from here does just incredible brisket and short ribs. After going vegan for January it was the first place I went. I almost had an erection.
Went here when I was in the big apple, was superb -
Yeah you’re right. Probably spoke to strongly. I just think the satisfaction from buying quality outlasts the happiness from saving money. You buy a Green Egg, you have that forever. It’ll stand up. Never seen one of those on the side of the road for free. Other grills I have.
jonattonyeah
Looks fantastic
When my current BBQ gives up the ghost I’ll certainly look at something higher end but reckon there’s a few more years in it yet. It’s a fucking tank
Old-Dutch tank
There’s a funny doc about this guy who was VERY AGGRIEVED FEWMIN and bought a steam roller, reinforced it with steal and concrete, and proceeded to demolish an entire town. He died so I guess that’s sad but I appreciated the effort.
Here’s his “Tank”
AMERICA!
It had a gun attached, obviously.
jonattonyeah FUCK YEAH!
Okay just looked it up, it’s called “Tread”.
It’s not the best doc but enjoyable if you need 90 minutes to kill if you’re under the weather or something. Him going bananas and the police being completely incapable of stopping him is just flat out funny. He was so angry.
Have heard grate things about electric igniton charcoal BBQ’s
- Edited
jonattonyeah
Cheers Jon.
Quick search shows on Sky & Amazon for UK folks.
Not sure for our Euro colleagues, your TV companies still likely haggling over a ‘deal’
@Smallman1 these help speed up the coals heating process:
Depends how many people you wanna cook for IMO. I use gas during the week over the Summer when I just wanna cook a quick dinner for Mrs Vin and me - and Weber’s go anywhere gas bbq is perfect for that. Portable, so we take it camping as well.
If you’re cooking for bigger numbers, my Dad’s Weber Spirit II is decent. Good temperature control, and gets plenty hot to cook whatever you want. I’d suggest getting a dedicated thermometer (ambient temp, + meat) as the temp gauge built into most bbqs is shit.
At the weekend, I can’t fathom why you wouldn’t take the little bit of extra time and get a charcoal bbq. Food tastes SO much better over charcoal, and it doesn’t take much effort to learn how to light a fire properly and maintain the right temperature, whatever you’re cooking.
I’ve used a Dancook kettle for the past 10 years and it’s been an awesome bbq. Replacing it when we move with a Masterbuilt Gravity grill, which is even awesomer…
Like I said, MC, it’s not perfect. But worth a watch. If for nothing more than him building a literal tank. Nobody died so I don’t find any issues with the hilarity.
