Ceasar salads are the best thing in the world. I need to learn how to make them or goto Costco:)

You have just gone up in my estimation (as if you really cared) for the real charcoal. Is it a Weber or something else? I use a great big Char-Broiler grill/smoker.

Actually it's a dual chamber barrel type smoker. The fire box is about 18" diameter and 1.5' long and the cooking chamber is about 24" diameter and 3.5' long. For barbecuing I just light a fire in the cooking chamber instead of the firebox.

I have owned/used several gas grills (I refuse to call them barbecues) over the last 25 years and was never really happy with the flavor they produced. I finally trashed my last gas grill and bought the smoker.

Oh, whenever I have the time I smoke everything I can get my hands on (that sounds like a pun, but it ain't necessarily so). Nothing like throwing pork or beef ribs, chicken parts, pork/beef roast, fish in the cooker with a controlled fire and plenty of mesquite.

Almost fergot, it's a New Braunfels, if that makes any difference.

Last but not least, Hayabusrider, I do care about what other people think of me. That doesn't mean that I would ever change my beliefs just to gain the approval of others nor does it mean that I am going to lay awake at night worrying about what I might have done to gain the disapproval of someone else. The conversations and disagreements we all have here in OT over political and religious issues (to name just two) provide me with food for thought. It would be a pretty damn boring life if everybody agreed about everything.

Example:
Bush: Hey Saddy, I think you ought to destroy all your WDM's.
Saddy: Well, GW, I think you're right. We all just got to get along. I'll get my staff on that project right away.

Bush: Hey Ariel, bro, how's it hangin'? Me and the missus are having a little get together out at the ranch on Friday and thought it would be fun if you and the little lady could be there.
Ariel: Why you little rascal, Georgie, me and my old bat would just be pleased as pumpkins to be there. Is there anything we can bring?
Bush: Naw, I let the Secret Service boys take some target practice over by the hog pens yesterday and the bastards hit a couple of my prize hogs. We're gonna gut 'em, skin 'em and put 'em on a spit over the pit.
Ariel: Damn, that sounds just groovy Bushmeister. I'll have the little lady pick up some Coronas on the way.

Da Pope: Hey Joe, this little purge you got goin' on is really hurting us in the wallet. Why don't you just call off your dogs and let all yer Christian type peoples get a huss?
Joseph Stalin: Pope baby you got it. All that blood has been giving me a bad rap. I'll quit rounding up and killin' all yer Catholics, and for good measure, I'll make sure they all give double at Mass on Sunday.

Ridiculous, isn't it?

Damn, my wife still isn't home with the meat and I'm hungry.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...........!!!!!:| :| :|

Propane ran out just before I plopped on the ribs :(

At least it didn't run out during cooking. Guess the ribs will have to wait til tomorrow.

I went to my mother's! The best dinner is when someone else made it for me :p

She's not much of a cook, but she did toast the rolls for roast beef and horseradish sandwiches. They were good :)

Well HP, I agree that a variety of views in necessary. I also do not care if you care that I approve of your cooking (or whatever), since I am hardly going to get to eat with you dont cha know ;)

That said,
I find charcoal gives a flavor superior to gas. What you describe is similar to what I have. If I ever have time, I hope to do some true BBQ.
For now I'm grillin and chillin
