Use a Cobb Premier next time. I use it pretty much only for cooking whole birds, but the meat is always twice as rich and juicy. The bird on the photo looks dry and I hate that. Try a Cobb guys.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/blog/happy-leap-year-day-barbecuers/#comment-116311 Comment on Kinda funny BBQ video. by Matt- September 19, 2008 If you are going to smoke, why not do it right Check out Outdoorchef seriously guys, I cant believe no one here has one of their models!http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq/kinda-funny-bbq-video/#comment-116310 Comment on Baby Blues Bar-B-Q by KateNonymous- September 17, 2008 We tried them at the L.A. BBQ Festival. The sauce was so vinegary that it almost made me wheeze. No good at all. The ribs might have been fine on their own, but there was no way to tell without wheezing.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq-restaurant/baby-blues-bbq/#comment-116134 Comment on Kinda funny BBQ video. by Steve- September 16, 2008 Great video, might have to give it a try. I've seen similar ideas but that's the first with the foil.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq/kinda-funny-bbq-video/#comment-115982 Comment on Wood Ranch BBQ & Grill by BBQ Jerry- September 9, 2008 Nice place to take your wife, etc. because it is big, nice, and clean. And the food is edible. But, they slow cook in an oven(like Hog-Wogly) and heat with a grill . There is no smoke bbq. or grilling slowly over wood or wood ash.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq-restaurant/wood-ranch-bbq-grill/#comment-115350 Comment on JRs Barbeque by BBQ Jerry- September 9, 2008 Meat is ok, but they slather a ton of sauce on it. Been their 3 times , forgot twice to tell them to put sauce on the side. The best places always put sauce on the side or in a bottle. Always remember, alot of sauce means they are covering up for a reason. MOM'S on Vanowen does the same thing. Covers all the fat (and no meat) on the ribs.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq-restaurant/jrs-barbeque/#comment-115349 Comment on Santa Maria Barbecue Company by BBQ Jerry- September 9, 2008 I found the meat to be good. They do smoke and the price is fair. But, I would not go out of my way to go there. Willy's in Agoura is the place to drive out of your way to.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq-restaurant/51/#comment-115347 Comment on Lucilles Smokehouse Bar-B-Que by BBQ Jerry- September 9, 2008 Lots of employee attitude for this type of restaurant.

Only one person eating at a table. Their was a large screen video being watched with ear shaking volume. Oh, and three employees were outside playing catch football. They all rushed in when we walked in. I then said no thank you and we walked out.http://www.bbqjunkie.com/bbq-restaurant/grandpa-freds-bbq/#comment-115343 Comment on Barbecue Los Angeles by Jerry- September 7, 2008 Baby Blues was great until a cook from south of the border began to make everthing too spicy.- Thousand Oaks Meat Locker is good and low cost. They grill and some smoke, over wood.- The Swinging Door is now outstanding but located on Vanowen and Vineland and no AC DURING THE SUMMER. They smoke bbq all meats for at least 5-9 hrs.- Ranchhouse in VN. is barly ok. No smoke.- Hogley Wog. is ok if you just want alot of meat. Meat is cooked in an oven; no smoke or wood or charcoal.
