When you get a new pit, spay as much olive or conola oil on both sides of the grates and the interior of the box., coat everything good Then fire it up to 225-250 for a couple hours, your pit will be seasoned after that. It will improve the taste and help keep the rust from taking over.

Also NEVER, NEVER use lighter fluid to start a fire.

Sweet I'll do this this weekend. Thanks
 
This thread gives me a hard-on. I really want to BBQ but don't have the space to do it at the moment. Once I move though...

After you get a handle on how to regulate your temperatures you can save a lot of time with one of these. I use it to light my fire and heat up all the metal inside the box, you can save 1 1/2 -2 hours of waiting for your pit to reach the correct temperature. I can literally be cooking within 15 minutes of pulling my pit out. (use it to season the pit as well) Put it on a 5 gallon propane bottle

Electric vert? Still fit quite a bit of meat in them.

Generic pic or the size comparison.
 
I have a small 1100 square foot apartment but we are in the process of building a new home which should be ready sometime in March/April. I'll probably start to dabble then but until that point, money is a priority.

I dont use anything sweet on beef. Have you used those rubs before?
 
salt and pepper on brisket ^^^^^^^I don't use sweet on beef either

sweet and spicy is for pork and if you are creative use it for jerky, beef or venison

Brisket gets salt and pepper only. Maybe some onion or garlic salt too.
 
Sweet stuff on brisket feels wrong, but I've done a Kansas City style brisket and it was still pretty good.

My go-to brisket rub is still Myron's rub :

1 tsp kosher salt
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp chipolte pepper powder
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp granulated dried onion

I also add 1 tsp jalapeno powder

It's a nice rub which gives a great bark! It works well for both the hot and fast cook, and the low and slow cook.
