I'm going from Portland/Seattle area through Chicago. I will have a heavy load so I want to take the easiest(on the vehicle) way. Should I go across thru Montana or down thru Salt lake city. I've never done this trip as I usually leave from LA and travel thru Arizona.
Also- anyone know the laws on tandem trailers out that way? ]]> The Pickle Barrel h20loo http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7405 http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7404&goto=newpost Thu, 09 Sep 2010 12:16:10 GMT Thanks a million to my neighbor for alerting the cops to these fools!

Great job by the Hobart PD!

Two charged with stealing GPS car units Two Hobart residents are accused of breaking into vehicles to steal GPS units and cash over the past five months. Phillip J. Galindo, 29, is charged with four counts of theft, a Class D felony, while Bryan W. Weeks, 33, is charged with one count of theft.
On Tuesday, police were dispatched to the 6200 block of California Street to investigate suspicious activity. Police found a white Jeep Liberty and two men standing next to it. As the officer walked toward them, they started walking away and threw some objects on the ground. The subjects were handcuffed. Police found a Garmin GPS unit, a charger, mounting bracket, glove and a flashlight on the ground.

The glove and flashlight were not mine!!!!:D ]]> The Pickle Barrel Chargrilled http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7404 http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7403&goto=newpost Thu, 09 Sep 2010 02:03:10 GMT Stuffed with Hatch Chiles, bacon and onions then served with some Salsa Verde.

First I fire roasted some Jalapenos, serranos and tomatillos with my weed burner on the grill.


Then made some salsa verde


Cooked some bacon then crumbled, sauteed some onions in bacon grease then added some hatch chiles for a stuffing. Also added some fresh cilantro


Then tied it up and rubbed it with some Head Country Seasoning.


Added some Salsa Verde when loin was 135* and pulled it when it hit 145*. I think this looks disgusting, nothing like I pictured it in my head.


Rested and sliced.


Plated. Added some salsa to the plate,added cheese then I melted it. Served with some refried beans and corn tortillas. I need to keep this one in my memory bank its a keeper.

I love fajitas but have never bought a seasoning for them. I've heard some folks just use seasoning salt and I've seen marinades out there. So, I saw this today and picked it up. If you've tried it, let me know how you like it. Here are a few pics. I "THINK" I smell a fair amount of chili powder in it but I'm not an expert on spices by any means. Ok, enough stalling, here ya go:

Decided late in the morning to go find some Jalapenos and try ABT's for the first time.

One store was out of Jalapenos, but had a few "Cubanelle" peppers, so I grabbed those for the hell of it. Hit another store and they only had about a dozen smallish Jalapenos, which I grabbed.

Cream cheese mixed with some shredded "Mexican" cheese and a pinch or three of cayenne. Since the peppers were so small, I sliced the Kielbasa Smokies in half lengthwise.

Here they are ready for the smoker:



And here they are after about 90 minutes on the smoker, at a pretty steady 225 degrees:



Yeah, they were pretty damned good, and I can't wait to do them again. ]]> Veggies and Sides JSJoyce http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7399 http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7398&goto=newpost Wed, 08 Sep 2010 17:12:19 GMT Image: http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i218/steve_bucket/P9070021.jpg Image: http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i218/steve_bucket/P9080022.jpg

I've never competed, just a backyard guy, but I do cooked a little barbque for some groups over the years. I have an old Bandera for home that I'm finishing up a rebuild on with a new fire box, baffle, etc. I'll post a couple pics when I can get it painted. I'm a hobby welder so I do my own rebuilds. I live around Tulsa and it was too just too darn hot to do much welding all summer.

I've cooked on several different smokers, all homemade woodburners except for one Kingfisher and a couple big rotisserie type like some resturants use. I've viewed this sight a few times and I have enjoyed reading some of the recipies and tidbits about different smokers.

I do have a request. I wish someone would make a list of some of the acronyms or abbreviations for the different types of smokers or cookers I see on these forums; some are obvious and some I just haven't figured out, like UDS.

Anyway, I enjoy reading what you guys put up and I would be happy to pay for a membership if you guys figure how you're going to handle that. ]]> Daddeo http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7393 http://www.theqjoint.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7392&goto=newpost Tue, 07 Sep 2010 18:25:05 GMT Looking at doing the Last Fling 'til Spring get together the last weekend in OCTOBER - Oct. 29-30 - at Stockton State Park, West Campground, Stockton Lake, MO.

My name is Jon and I am another newbie from Tulsa, OK. I currently have a Kingsford charcoal grill and a Brinkman electric smoker. I hope to be able to purchase a "real" smoker this winter/spring. I have been looking at craigslist and have found a few that I'd like to have. But then again, I have found a few that I will be able to afford :roflmaoha0:
