Yes!! Pig Roast is the only way to go! Abso-F'ng-lutely!! Only downside is that a_ahmed won't be able to have his way with the animal before hand.
Keep it clean here, brother. |

Gas is MUCH more convenient, but charcoal offers a unique taste that can't be duplicated by other means. Another friend of mine had an "ancient" grill that came with the house he and his wife bought. The thing had a smoker attached to the side. I don't think they ever used it, though, which is a shame. I may research smoker setups and options this Spring. I have a fire pit in my yard that I'd like to somehow incorporate. My Uncle has a great recipe for smoked trout, and I've seen recipes for smoked garlic and even salt that I'd love to try! |

Sorry, I'm almost to immature for the regular boards.  I've been grilling with charcoal lately. I got some of that natural hardwood charcoal that looks like big chunks of burnt up Oak and Hickory. I never really grilled on Charcoal before this, but the flavor is awesome. You can get it so hot that it puts a crust on the outside of the beef, leaving the inside almost raw (like I like it). |

I saw a cooking show the other day... The guy took a whole chicken, filled it with herb butter, tied it up. He pushed all the charcoal to one side of the grill and put the chicken on the other side and roasted/smoked it for an hour or so. I'm going to give that a shot. |

Let me know if you come across anything interesting. I've begun researching different smoking options for fish and beef/venison. I've already decided that, for the meat, I'll run ground through a jerky gun just because the texture is so much more tender. I've sampled several recipes people have made like that, only they used a food dehydrator to make it. It's good, but I really want to try real smoking. Same for the fish. |
