It is important to keep your grill surface clean. I used to use a wire brush, like most people, but it seemed to me that they soon got very tired and flat looking. For the last year or two, I have instead used a ball of ordinary alumunium foil. It gets the grill grate nice and clean, and you just throw it away afterwards.
I’m visiting some friends for a BBQ on Sunday, and thought I would take them some pulled pork. For this, I got hold of 3 medium bone-in pork shoulders, known colloquially as a “butt”.
When I learned how to make pulled pork a couple of years ago, it was with a tomato-based, slightly hot sauce. I have tried other sauces, in particular some traditional vinegar-based sauces, but I preferred the tomato ones.
I am planning to do some cold smoking tomorrow, so I thought I would precede that with a post about the equipment I use, which I purchased from the lovely people at Mac’s BBQ.
Every couple of months or so, I have some friends round to play board-games. There can be anything from 8 to 20 people, so I tend to do burgers and bangers on my pellet grill, as it is easy to do, and doesn’t need me hovering over it.
