  • Folks need to keep whispering, 'Louisiana Monroe.' to Timmons.... Or 'Arkansas, they 'spose to be SEC? Shoo.'

    Thanks, Jeremy. Good talent. I could see UK offering. He was one of my early ones to watch in 2014. Fant and Elam will be two of the more highly recruited players in the state. Elam could be next year's Jacob Hyde.

    In Joker's defense, McKay made the switch late and UK just did not have the room. Joker showed Mekale love early and at the time, his heart was on the basketball court.

    Bone in
    Have to inject. Injection recipe is
    3/4 cup apple juice
    1/2 cup water
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/4 cup salt
    2 tablespoons Worcestershire

    After I inject I let it brine in the run out for about an hour and half.
    Run down with mustard. Then I put the rub on and let sit for close to two hours
    I use a propane smoker so the wife can run it in case I have to work.
    Wood is apple or pecan, a little hickory and bourbon barrel pieces.
    Spritz with a apple juice and bourbon mix.
    Wrap in foil (this saves the liquid gold) at180 and cook until 195. Let rest at least 2 hours before hand pulling.

    I rub with Jacks Old South rub which I make at home.
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1/4 cup sweet paprika
    1/4 cup kosher salt
    3 tablespoons black pepper
    2 teaspoons garlic powder
    2 teaspoons onion powder
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1 teaspoon dried basil

    I'm still pretty new at smoking but everyone loves the pork and the chicken.

    I know everyone say's the state doesn't produce many D1 prospects but it seems to me the state produces more and more every year?

    I'm feeling better about Timmons. I think Arkansas has slipped down. I would look out for Ohio State (still no offer), but other than that, I think he is Blue. I would start getting nervous if Charlie flops to Arkansas, but even then...

    I wasn't blaming Joker. Just sucks to have a future star leave the.state when I feel he would of been a Cat if he made his decision to play football earlier.

    You would be correct. There are always exceptions, but when the state legislation started allowing spring football practice - that's when it took off. We've seen the long-term benefits from that decision in the last few classes and it should continue moving forward. We'll never be a Georgia or Florida, but we should close the gap on a Tennessee.

    Absolutely. Hindsight is 20/20. If Sweat and Legree are as good as I think they can be though, then it will sting a lot less.

    Another thing I'm seeing throughout the state that may have helped is football is being played at a lot younger age. Even in small counties and town. When I was young you couldn't start until 7th (11 or 12 yrs. old) grade. What's the starting age now 7 or 8?

    Sounds good to me. There is soo many ways to make good Q. I rarely put any sauce on mine. I add the drippings back in after the fat has been scraped off.

    Fette Sau is a hipster-douchebag barbecue restaurant in Brooklyn, which for my money makes the best Q on the planet. Unfortunately, you have to deal with hordes of self important idiots who think the same about the food.

    The Q is phenomenal. The bourbon and beer list is equally awesome.

    See link below

    Fette Sau Dry Rub | 7online.com

    This Memorial Day Weekend many people will get out the grill for a holiday barbeque. If you dont feel like cooking, there is a Brooklyn restaurant doing the work for you. Fette Sau is located at 354 Metropolitan Avenue in Williamsburg.
