PBC makes a beautiful crust on some chops

Happy Hapgood · 10-05-2015, 07:29 PM

Yes it does!

Rnkingsfan · 10-05-2015, 07:47 PM

Just bought a PBC a few weeks ago and have already had 4 cooks with chicken halves and tri tip. My wife so far loves the chicken and last night with left over chicken she made an amazing chicken tortilla soup. We have never enjoyed chicken off our grills as much as the PBC has. So far the costco marinated artichoke hearts have been a hit.

Have a few more cooks for the all purpose rub, is there a consensus for favorite chicken rub to try next?

Yeah I usually wait a couple days to a week until I clean It out anyway.

Sounds like your workin that PBC well!

A good chicken rub that's easy to find is Plowboys Yardbird. I use to use it all the time. But then I found Kosmo's Q Dirty Bird. I think that's my new favorite! Plus they have been a sponsor here for the Throw Down's we do. That's actually what made me try the rub, I won a TD and received a gift certificate. 1 lb bag is $10....that's cheap! Heres a link to their website.

My PBC will be here tomorrow and I already have a couple racks of spare ribs planned for tomorrow evening. Can't wait to get that first cook under my belt. I'm already planning on doing a brisket in November!

What! No pics yet? Don't you know the PBC Is purty even when it's not cooking. And even better when it is cooking! It's not just about the food pron. ....what about cooker pron! Lol

JDelage · 10-06-2015, 07:27 PM

Anyone knows of a bbq blog that features the PBC regularly?

Deebo · 10-06-2015, 07:28 PM

Lol. It honestly didn't go untouched long enough. As soon as I pulled it outta the box, I got the charcoal goin! I'm taking pics with my camera so I gotta pull em off of the SD card. I'll have a nice lil pron show for ya soon.

Deebo · 10-06-2015, 07:30 PM

How do you guys snuff out the coals? I only have fridge magnets and I'm sure they'd melt if I put them over the holes. Any other suggestions?

jjjonz · 10-06-2015, 07:33 PM

I'll bet she is a beauty. I cooked a little baby back and chicken today in my PBC.

I usually use a heavy glove and quickly lift the coal basket out and sit it in my kettle, put the lid on and close all vents. You'll need a heavy grill glove or welders glove to do it or you will burn your hand.
BUT, if you don't have a kettle (I recommend you get one but that's another thread....lol) you can use magnets. I have had to use them before and all I had was the very cheap, very thin sheet kind like you get for free, usually with a calender on them. I was sure they would melt butter they never did.
