REVIEW – Mmmmmmm smoked chicken! I love to make smoked meats on my pellet grill. A whole chicken was one of the first things I ever made on it. It is a cheaper piece of meat compared to brisket, so I figured if I messed it up, it would not cost me as much. The …

REVIEW – Have I ever mentioned how much I hate cold weather? Well, I really hate being cold. Maybe it has to do with living in south Texas for most of my life, but I will take 100-degree temperatures over 55-degree temperatures any day. That being said, I am also a cheapskate, and the cost …
