Kosmos

Kosmos makes really good rubs. The killer bee honey chipotle is my personal favorite.

That is the only one I have used so far and myself and a couple buddies really like it. I did chicken thighs again Saturday as well as a smoked queso dip too. 

About 30 minutes ago I put a 7lb pork shoulder on for pulled pork. Used the Kosmos Q Cow Cover rub this time, first time trying that one. Estimating it should take about 7-9 hours to complete. Cooking it at 225 degrees now until an internal temp of 160, then wrapping in aluminum foil until internal temp reaches 200.

Just got a pellet grill/smoker delivered yesterday, I went with the RecTeq RT 340 and really like it so far. 

Made my first meal on it last night, bone in chicken thighs. They turned out amazing. I used Kosmos Q Spicy Chipotle Honey Killer Bee rub and smoked them at 225 for about 20-30 minutes then cranked the heat to 425 and flipped them once until they were at an internal temp of 165. I am making more for some friends today and I will do the same method except I will bring the heat up to 450 maybe even 475 to get the skin just a tad bit crispier.

I am also making a smoked queso dip today as well which I will share pictures of

The chicken - 

Looks great!  I have a buddy who has had a Camp Chef pellet smoker for 2 years now and loves it.  Extremely versatile and easy to use.

Are wood pellets economical? I feel like having something that can use both hardwood and pellets would be good?

For my specific model, it's rated to use roughly 1 lb of pellets per hour, I bought a 20 lb bag of pellets at Lowe's for $10 so I should get roughly 20 hours of grill/smoke time for $10 plus the cost of the electricity that keeps the computer turned on.

I hate the name “boneless wings” (they’re chicken nuggets), but I wouldn’t go this far:

Looks like he was having a little fun.  Too little of that these days.  Though wondering if it was an analogy to something bigger and broader???  T'was a good, meaty discourse.

This is awesome! I've said this for years! 

Yes, he's a little tongue and cheek, but he's absolutely right. 

This made me giggle out loud.
