According to the NBBQA and the HPBA, May is National Barbecue Month.
Barbecuers and grillers around the world are gearing up for summer time cooking. In preparation for the season, I spent some time cleaning my Weber Smoker Mountain this weekend.
It's surprising how a little elbow grease and some hot water can change the inside of a barbecue cooker. Periodic cleaning of your grill or smoker can prolong it's useful life. I use plain old dishwashing liquid, hot water, and a couple of clean rags to wipe down the inside and outside of my smoker. I avoid harch solvents and cleaners because I don't want that stuff near the food I eat.
When all the dirt and grime was gone, I placed the smoker in the direct sunlight for a couple hours to dry before reassemblying the smoker.
I googled "kansas city bbq blog" and this is what it came up with. You're at the top!
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I just bought a used Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker off craigslist so I'm brand new to this deal. Do you know where in the metro I can get quality meat? I'm in Lee's Summit. Figured I'd do a brisket and maybe pork ribs.
Thank you for stopping by to visit the bbq blog.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of people who visit here from the K.C. area that might have different opinions, but I recommend Sam's Club. You can purchase the traditional barbecue meats there and with the multiple locations -- it's very convenient.
Hey thanks. Yeah we have friends who have a Costco card so maybe we'll check them out. I'm a suscriber now!
