Is this the first BBQ Brethren "Branded" Cooker?

Second as admitted, the PBC may not be so great as a grill, the BGE is without a doubt one of the most versatile BBQ cookers made, including everything from Low-n-Slo to Grilling, Pizza (can the PBC do Pizza?) to everything in between.

I really just do not get it, the UDS, PBC thing. The two are like long lost red headed twin step brothers, not a lot of difference between the two in regards to operation, only looks.

There is a fine line between truth, incentives and taste preferences... I will now hide out for fear of the blind A$$ kissing that may follow.

And BTW, you Mod's should be very appreciative of the late Christmas gifts from Santa, one time I would like to be in your shoes..

Get one or both and you will see the light, Grasshopper! Gotta see and do to believe!

Expand your horizons! Then you will get it! Just curious, why "incentives" in bold lettering!

Seriously considering 2 of these pits for my son and his family. Son in law and his family as well.
Both families are so busy living their lives that it is very very difficult for them to cook a meal after 12-15 hour days.
Both families love chicken. Did I mention that between the 2 of them they presently have 3 male sons. I found out last nite we got another grandchild on the way. Might be another very very soon. I am too old to try and keep up with this as a grandpa!

Oh, wait a minute. I get it now. They gave them to you, didn't they. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Say no more.

Nope.. sorry, bought them with kingsford discount. Same as everyone else.

you misread my post..

the PBC will never replace my BGE(or anyones).. steaks, pizza, temperature control, grilling in general.. the BGE is it. The BGE is versatile, (I do NOT use my bge for low and slow. I have too many pits for that.) The PBC does just one thing. It locked in at 278.. did not budge, and theres no setting to mess with that will let you control temps.. it is what it is.. period.. unless you whip out a screwdriver and change factory settings. I'm not messing with it.. its not why I bought it. Folks say you can grill on it.. but i have a BGE for that, so I wont use PBC for that much either.

but what i did say, is it will [b[replace my go to for chicken.. [/B].... hang 2-3 birds and walk away for 2 hours. I used to do that in my WSM, then moved to doing it in the BGE with the plate setter, but we prefer the flavor of the PBC, over the WSM and BGE, probably due to the grilling/sizzling/direct heat effect absent when using a plate setter or wsm w/water pan. The family liked the 'roasted' flavor over 'smoked'.

I do not have a UDS, probably never will, so have no comment, and I did not make a comparison.

and im not sure what you mean by truth vs incentive, or what/if your insinuating, but my first impression is

. I used the kingsford discount to purchase these, the same way(and $) as everyone else, and Noah was good enough to put our logo on it. Would u like to see the invoice? I post my opinions, unbiased, which I am entitled to like any other member.

I started a seperate thread for a reason. I did not want our PBCs to be get stuck in the comparisons in the other thread.. Let the other thread analyze the PBC. This thread was to share the gifts to the mods and my impression of the PBC.. I dont care if its a wsm, a uds, or a BDS, or whatever.. in my pit, they all stand on their own. I will use the pbc straight out of the box. Im using it the way its designed.. set and forget with no other thoughts. If I want to tinker and diddle, or change temps, cook higher or lower, or cook more, or use wood, etc..I have 12 other pits for that.

and BTW, I know how to use an egg.

<Looks nice Phil Great gift and well worth it

Swamp Donkeyz BBQ · 01-31-2013, 08:04 AM

I cook IBCA, are the chicken halves pretty enough to put in a box? Y'all are really making me think about buying one.

deguerre · 01-31-2013, 08:07 AM

Not the first time I've sat back and thought "DAMN. Phil has a big heart."
Good on you Poobah.

Spoil sport...

I think they are pretty neat drum smokers. I am not trying to disparage anyone by asking this question but other than hanging the meat whats the real difference from an UDS.

Freddy j · 01-31-2013, 08:13 AM

Noah, if you read this, will you be offering the BBQ brethren plaque for as an add on?

I just got my Pbc on tues and I'd sure like a plaque on it. Looks cool.

Just use the search, and search pbc and pit barrel cooker. Tons of threads on it.

Freddy j · 01-31-2013, 08:27 AM

Ps., now that the number of us using PBC's is growing, I'm looking forward to more threads where peeps post up about their different cooks.

I'm very interested to see some pizzas cooked on here.
