The Grill Coach’s 5 Favorite Grills and Smokers for 2021
We at The Grill Coach are so passionate and enthusiastic about bbq and grilling we always have our eye on the “next” thing. If you love bbq and grilling you too probably are always looking at a new cooker, a new smoker or a new technique to try. This craft that we love has endless possibilities. Is there a best way? Probably not. Is there a better way? Of course!
Stretching a Bag of Charcoal
Charcoal is expensive. What can we do as grilling enthusiasts to keep the party going? My friends have called me cheap and I wear that badge of honor with pride (sometimes). Buying cheap charcoal though is on my list of don’ts, I find that when buying briquettes only “blue-bag” will do for me, the off brand stuff is just not worth it. I’ve been burned (get it?) too many times by cheap briquettes to do it again.

This week, Jay and Brian fire up the smoker for a deep dive into smoked pork butt! From meat prep to grill setup, overcoming the stall, and the all-important rest, they break down every step of this BBQ classic. Jay talks B&B Competition Char Logs, Brian grills up a picanha, and they answer a listener question on how to cook the perfect steak. Plus, why disposable aluminum pans might be your new favorite BBQ tool!
