my grill has one and I use it to heat up the grill faster. not sure what exactly it is for, but it works great in the winter to keep the grill temp stable.

It's a rotisserie panel.

jwzimm · 09-01-2016, 04:20 PM

It is a rotisserie burner. It produces a controlled and diffuse heat from the propane so you can slow roast meats on a spit.

justinnum1 · 09-03-2016, 03:22 PM

Just got the grill professionally cleaned. Looking forward to grilling!

Anyone have good experience with USDA prime meat from costco?

Also, best store bought BBQ sauce?

upstatedoc · 09-03-2016, 03:25 PM

Just bought some of this never had it before, I'll report back.

Edit: Holy molasses that Brooks barbecue sauces extremely sweet I like something with a little bit more bite

My go-to also. I am sure there are some niche brand that is only available at secret popups and are smoked with only the innermost layer of bark from the some rare Amazonian tree and is "better", but this is the best I've found at the grocery store.

No no no. Look at the ingredients. They list them in order of percentage content, highest percentage first. The first ingredient in that stuff is high fructose corn syrup.

Look for Stubbs BBQ Sauce. A lot of the chain food stores around here carry it.

Mmmm... Love me some HFCS. Almost as much as my HPFP in my old 07' 335i.

Used that Sweet baby rays tonight and it was damn good. much better than the jack daniels i bought yesterday. thanks guys.

Sweet Baby Rays used to be good...then they replaced the sugar with "high fructose corn syrup".

I won't touch that shit now.

Try Woodstock Organic - the chipotle has a real nice kick and good flavor. Also, the new Heinz BBQ sauces are using pure cane sugar. They have an 11.8 smaller size trial pack that has 4 different flavors of their new items, Texas, Memphis, Carolina, Kansas City.

You guys got me wanting to try this now...

bosstones · 09-05-2016, 09:43 AM

Stubbs BBQ sauce is pretty good. A little while back, I got Sticky Sweet as a test to see if it'd rot my teeth (assuming it is the sweeter of their sauces)...and because it was all the store had at the time... It was a little less viscous than I prefer, but it didn't leave me w/ the gross aftertaste that Sweet Baby Ray's does. Certainly a lot better than most other chain store available brands.

wdb · 09-05-2016, 09:59 AM

Vindicated!

Yes, Costco is great value!

You can get pre cut steaks or the whole sub primal, which you then can cut out steaks or make a big roasts.

I buy the whole sub primal, average $170 for 16 pounds) and then age it at home.

http://www.drybagsteak.com

It takes planning, aging at least 30 days before cooking. Check out YouTube for videos.

Pretty tasty result. Steak house taste on the cheap. But it does take time...

Can I join your commune? WTF do you do with 16lbs of meat? I mean, I have a big family on both sides, but I have never bought more than 10 lbs at a time.
