    I ate it and then remembered the photo request.  It was delicious.  Take my word for it.  I'm not taking a processed photo.  :lol:

    Tired and in a coma. Gonna put the daughter to sleep and probably go to sleep with her. The fried food served its purpose and it was delicious

    :lol: I will take your word for it. I am sure it was delicious. I love mac and cheese but don’t eat it that often, especially homemade.

    Homemade macaroni & cheese would be what we call a "special-special."

    I make a sick Mac N Chee for Thanksgiving that is amazing - ly expensive.  
    All of the cheeses (8 types) add up.

    Haven't made much since we moved East, but when we lived in CA it was a standard 

    So good....

    Prior to seasoning. Beer can for perspective...but its about to disappear haha
    That is one beautiful ribeye!  It looks like it's two ribs thick!
    Ribeyes are probably my favorite steak cut.
    Never had a "tomahawk", probably never will.  I'm not paying the extra premium price plus the extra inedible weight.  They sure do look cool though.

    Okay, I've never taken a crack at a long, slow brisket, but some of the pics I've seen here made me want to have a go. I've got an 18" Weber compact grill so it's not ideal. I set up the perimeter with a 'snake' and I'm at about 2 hours in. It looks waaay underdone at this stage. The cut is about a quarter of a full brisket, about 3.5 pounds. I've opened the vents up to raise the heat. My crappy thermometer that I put inside the vent is reading about 250f. Any help is appreciated.

    Honestly, your not missing out and are better off with a standard ribeye IMO.
    I wouldn't buy one unless it was a good price, and this one just happened to be. Was damn good though.

    Haven't cooked this before....would seem a pain in the ass to keep adding wood and/or bricks, but low and slow would seem to get you where you want to go?
    Keep us updated!

    I think 250 sounds about right though?

    I think that was looking fine for 2 hours, how's it looking now at 4?
    225-250 has been considered the standard for low and slow for a long time, but a bunch of Q'ers are taking the temp up close to 300 to cook faster, but still getting low and slow results.

    At 5 hours now. Made a rookie mistake and opened the vents and went out to run a few errands. Temps got really high and a bit close to the heat got charred. Rest looks okay though. Just turned it around and I'll try and keep it around 225 for the next few hours.


    Edit: Those vents actually do something. I've always just kept them wide open because I'm usually grilling over high heat- steaks mainly.
