I think you should fly over and be in charge of the next XK BBQ.  Tailgating??  Over here that's where you drive too close to the car in front of you.....

Yum!

My understanding of "tailgating" is what I've seen in movies. Bbq'ing and picnicking from the back of your car or pickup, usually in the car park of a sports event? Is that about right @ssayre?

@jhn.holgate, @andy666 is correct.  google NFL tailgates and you should see what I'm talking about.  You guys have had what we would consider "tailgating" at your events if I remember right.  We also use that term for following too close to the car in front as well.

Barbecue at an xk event is on the bucket list.

Yum

That looks tasty!  Seeing as you have a pit style bbq take a look at the BBQ Pit Boys on Youtube.

Thanks @.Joel I just watched 1 video on the bacon bustle sprouts.  Looks awesome.  Just what I needed to freshen up my menu.  It looks like he had the same grill as me but set in a wooden table top.

I broke down and got a cast iron pot for the beans.  I'm cooking 10lbs of pork on the other grill.  Both indirect and using kingsford competition coal and moistened applewood chunks.

Looks great.  I use two Weber Q's, the Family Q and Baby Q which are both gas bbqs.  

I've mastered pork belly on them, however wanted to do a slow briskett so here's one that I cooked over the space of about 6 to 7 hrs.  I use some hickory & apple woodchips in a foil pocket, and to keep moisture I use an apple cider to the side of it and just baste it once every hour.

@ssayre we should start up an XK food blog and collaborate on there  

Seeing that big pot of beans took me instantly back to that Blazing Saddles scene which, for the sake of culinary saniteriumness, I will only post a link to....

That looks great @.Joel. I've grilled a lot of different things but haven't done a brisket yet. I'll have to try that. Definitely need a food blog. 

@jhn.holgate thanks for reminding me about that scene. I had forgotten about that. Good one. 

I liked my old gas grill but haven't used one since the dog chewed the gas line in two about 10 years ago. 

Smoked mac and cheese in the cast iron.

Looks awsome!  Last night.... Grilled Oysters, Calamari and Flathead.

Then today I came across this, and I think I need one of these smokin' BBQ helpers....

Wow, I need to step up my game and start grilling some seafood.

Also you mentioned doing pork belly.  I haven't done that but just watched a couple videos on it and looks like it would be very good.  Grilling and smoking is a lot of fun with the endless amount of recipes floating around on the internet and youtube.
