On my google news feed I get some ridiculous stuff for grilling.

Backstory the best way to cook a sausage on the stove top is sear it then pour in some liquid, usually beer, let it cook on medium 5-10 minutes.

So the article said best way to grill a hotdog was to “poach” it like an egg the grill it after. Bring the water to 155 drop in the hot dogs and throw it to low and take them out after 10 minutes.

I was surprised with the results.

If I grill dogs they usually get weirdly shaped like popped blister casing after storing them.

Boiling hotdogs makes the plump and store longer looking better but no charred casing.

This poached way makes them plump and crispy, takes a little more effort but worth it.

I love cooking brats but I’ve never made beer brats. I found a recipe that I like it just doesn’t tell me how much beer to use. I plan on cooking 10 brats with onions. What’s a good beer to brat ratio. I’m open to using any beer

Those are the cleaning instructions. Doesn’t seem smart to just pop this in the dishwasher.

What’s up grilling folks. I’m 22 in college and my friends wanna host a Darty and have a grill going with some dogs on it. Not going that huge, just gonna be friends (around 20 - 30 people). I got tasked with being the guy on the grill cuz I have some basic grill knowledge and have been grilling for a few years now. Looking for any advice yall have so I don’t mega screw this up.

Going to be using a mini Weber portable kettle

Overall I’ve been grilling for a few years so I have no issues with getting coals going or that staring stuff. Mainly want some advice on how I can keep heat/temp going for a few hours.

Add coals while I’m cooking ? Fire up chimney and add an entire new batch of coals? Just mainly want some advice on how to maintain longevity of my temp/heat in the kettle.

Thanks for all the help!

Can anyone tell me why I have flames coming out of here no matter how low i put the burner and is it safe? Other than burning up the igniter wire lol. Its right behind the knob

Little guy almost got added to the chimney.

Looking for meat thermometer recommendations. My husband mentioned something about a thermometer that can control the water temperature vs just reading the temperature. Im confused as to how this would exist and Im unure if he made this up lol. So if it does, let me know. Any other grilling gift ideas also welcome. Price range under $100ish of anything.

Do i marinate them in a bag with the sauce for 4 hours? Do i grill dry after seasoning with salt n pepper and then toss in sauce? If I toss after do i mix this sauce with a butter?

Looking at Webber spirit grill and saw them before for $399 and now they are over $500. Is Memorial Day / president day / 4th of July best time to see prices go down?

Hi all, so my neighborhood is brand new, and on our Facebook page (yea yea), some of us have decided to throw a BBQ/grilling/meet-n-greet sort of thing in one of the public areas. It's not for 3 weeks, but I'm already thinking about how my portion can go well, so I made a list.

I'll be wheeling my 26" Weber Kettle down to the event (about 100 yards), then bringing a handful of other things in my car to make it go smoothly on my end. I'm responsible for ~60-80 wings that I'll be bringing and grilling during setup, and then any hotdogs/hamburgers that others bring that they need my grill-space for.

Anyone have anything to add, or just tips/tricks in general that I should know? Like I said, it's my first time, so... I don't know what I don't know, you know? Here's my list so far:

Grill Stuff

• Grill itself

• Charcoal

• Chimney, torch, & starters

• Few hickory wood chunks

• Fireproof gloves

• Tongs + Spatula

Prep & Serving

• Folding table + butcher paper to cover it

• Bin for carrying everything

• Carrying tray for raw wings (just those cheap aluminum ones you see at potlucks)

• Saucing tray

• Serving tray x3 (naked wings, sauced wings, burgers/dogs)

• Squirt bottles with my wing sauce in them already

• Aluminum foil to cover said trays

• Glove liners + nitrile gloves for serving/handling

Any additional things you would recommend? Or do's/don't's you wish you knew the first time?

Thanks a bunch!

Is anyone familiar withe brand Chard ? Also are these 3 in 1 grills actually good or worth it?

The grey color is being discontinued so it’s on sale

Hey all, lifetime griller but current apartment dweller and do 2-3 camping trips per year and about as many tailgates. Curious for some feedback on a portable gas grill. I obviously prefer the flavor of charcoal, but it’s just not realistic with my lifestyle.

I had a Coleman Roadtrip that served me well for about 5 years, but I was seriously injured in a construction accident and just got around to dusting it off. Turns out that in my absence a family of mice had put it to good use. Thank you for your service, but it’s time to put this one out to pasture.

I was just hoping for some good tips on a portable gas grill that’s decent for slow & low and has good wind resistance (don’t always get the best campsite). Hopefully something that’s got some balls too, love a good sear on a steak, but ribs are my favorite. Need something with some surface area too, because if I’m gonna make one rack of ribs, I’m gonna make 2 racks of ribs because it’s the same mess to clean up. Oh, and friends and family and all that. But yeah, mostly more ribs for me.

So I know this is a super easy question (/s), but what grill has even temps high and low, a big surface, good wind protection and a reasonable element of portability in order of importance. Obviously I’d love a good quality to cost value as well.

I had a weber chimney for many years, but it eventually degraded. I bought and ended up disposing of several chimneys bought at academy. The heat shield failed so badly that the plastic handle melted on both of them. And the 2nd one is already rusty as hell. Avoid the cheap chimneys unless you only want to use them for a season or two.

I had to turn to Amazon to find an original Weber chimney. It weighs twice as much as the others and the build quality is excellent. Can't wait to use it and not get molten plastic on my grill gloves when I want a steak.

$10 many times vs $25 for 15 years when left in the elements. Get the Weber.. or at least another quality chimney. I did find some cool ones when I googled charcoal chimney. Just avoid the cheap trash they have everywhere in the big stores. I never needed gloves for my old Weber chimney, but I would have been scarred if I tried that with my recent ones.

I'm somewhat new to grilling and looking to buy a nice grill. My budget is $1500, any recommendations or resources I should look at? Any factors I need to consider? Looking for either gas or pellet.
