Smoky Okie’s Seafood Splash
June 26, 2012 By 1 Comment
I’ve been on a seafood kick lately (mostly thanks to my wife who picked up some more salmon filets for me to grill). I’m not going to complain, because it gives me a chance to try out rubs that may be more geared towards seafood such as this one: Smoky Okie’s Seafood Splash. The Rub […]
GMG S.O.S.S Review (4/5)
June 25, 2012 By Leave a Comment
GMG (aka Green Mountain Grills) makes a few nice looking pellet grills and happens to also have a line of sauces and rubs. Personally, I’m not against appliance/hardware providers getting into the sauce business, but based on the relatively uncommon occurrence, I usually tread carefully when I see food products from folks like Charbroil or […]

Slow Poke Spicy Apple (5/5)
June 18, 2012 By 3 Comments
I opened the box and immediately liked this bottle. Although it may be a little over-designed with stylized fonts that are a little tough to read, the combination turtle/smoker is fantastic. Where can I buy a walking turtle smoker right now?! When I opened the bottle, it hit my nose with two of my favorite […]

What can I say. I’m a sucker for smooth, simple, balanced flavors. And that’s what Big Butz provides.
