Just did 18 pieces of chicken legs and thigh on the Boss grill with pecan smoke and it turned out wonderful. I'm convinced you can't screw it up on those pellet grills...2.5 hrs at 250F and turn half way thru. You won't regret it. OH yeah...I used rib rub...paprika, black pepper, garlic powder and brown sugar.

Bird Boobs marinated in Stubbs BBQ sauce and Mae Ploy sweet chili sauce. Yellow squash w/ oil and Montreal steak seasoning. MMMM.
Dang that was delicious! I was planning on bringing my grill with me out west but I'm assuming there will be fire bans in effect everywhere. I may have to pick up a Skottle along the way.

You have some very good cooking skills but using Charcoal Lighter fluid? I'm not fond of!

Cowboy charcoal in the egg works great too but some times you just want to throw dead animal, bird or fish parts on a gas grill...get it done and eat it... so there must be a variety of cooking methods. I modified a worn out gas grill to use wood, usually alder or mesquite but sometimes white oak if I can find it. Apple wood is also available and works well too and makes great cooking coals...BUT NEVER started with a dino sourced fluid. I always use kindling made from fat wood to get things going. This is a residual mind set from growing up in Long Needle Southern Pine country I suppose. I do use feather sticks sometimes to practice camping fire making stuff.

Now off to make waffles with Canadian blue berries and coolwhip to keep the berries from falling off the waffles...maybe creamed left over chopped chicken on waffles for dinner....we'll see.

I gave the family a choice and my son and daughter in law wanted my fried shrimp. The Grandboys begged for their favorite grill item, BBQ bacon wrapped chicken legs. Everything turned out just fine.

WOW!!
The bacon makes the chicken an order of magnitude BETTER than mine. Just told #1 son what you did and we're going to study the technique and see if we can come close to your effort.

We just finished 4 lbs of mussels in a white wine and garlic sauce. I had a dash of black raspberry ice cream which was a big mistake eating that when your fingers still smell like garlic...should have known better.

BTW, I have done nice Gulf shrimp wrapped in bacon and fried fast in avacado oil. Gotta get the bacon crisp without overcooking the shrimp. I learned it from my Mother who fried in a cast iron deep pan with about an inch of oil. We had a beach house North of New Port Richie until my Dad retired. I used to catch crabs on the beach and cook them in Gulf water in a big pot over a fire made with drift wood. That was in the late 50's until 67. Now they would probably put you in jail for burning on the beach. Have that problem on TX beach?

We love bacon wrapped seafood also and do a lot of jalapeño/ shrimp, and scallops wrapped in bacon. Love the Traeger for bacon wrapped items as you don’t have flare up issues. Your mussel dish sounds fantastic. I need to do that dish again soon

What a deal!!!

#1 son was a butcher for Safeway for 6 years...couldn't stand the cold and he was born in Alaska...still handy to have to cut up hogs and a chunk of cow once in awhile.

Just came back from a trip to the Oregoon coast...those folks don't know how to handle seafood...I love raw oysters with hot sauce but when you order fried oysters and the plate has a couple slimy half cooked products of the sea with some kind of half cooked yellow corn mixture on top that fell off when you pick it up and nothing resembling FRIED...well I sent it back in exchange for "fish and chips" which turned out to be cod not halibut as promised. To shorten the story...aint't going back there anytime soon.

They do have a pretty coast line and friendly folks living there. We cut the trip short due to awful traffic on US 101 and heavy smoke at Crater Lake...still bad fires which is awful for the folks living there. Got home to find there was a fire close to the house but was only about 50 acres of pasture and was put out quickly by a helicopter with a dip bucket. Horses were turned out and they came home looking for dinner...no real damage apparently. We need RAIN badly but no lightning!!
