Thanks Robert, but I've got all the wood I can use for the next couple years. Good luck! Tom

Sounds like you like your stuff! That's good! I haven't been to Farmers BBQ on Mallard Creek yet, but now have it on my list of places to try and review.

Hey Darren, My ''secret'' to moist and tender butts or shoulders is to rub the meat down with a fairly heavy coating of rub (all over), then roast the meat between 225 and 275 for the first 4 hours, and then wrap it in two layers of ''good/thick'' aluminium foil with a good dousing of your finishing vinegar based sauce (at least a cup)before you ...

Well, I got to Nelson's in March of 2012, and they closed sometime in the summer I think. Too bad, as they were actually pretty good. Here's my review: Q was slightly dry and a wee bit chewy with good smoke and a very light vinegar hint. Lots of brown chopped in. Cole slaw was chopped fine, but almost no dressing.
