Thanks for the spice ref. I need something like that, so I'm definitely going to pick it up. The sauce/rub is definitely the key to good slow cooked meat.
The pit bbq is amazing amounts of fun; I can't say enough about it. Its super easy, too, so its good for people like me who end up more intoxicated than is generally a good idea when cooking. As for TNG, his choice, not ours!

In about 10 minutes I'm headed to a good ol' fashioned southern bbq. I'm the guy brining the veggie brats. -I NEVER thought I'd be that guy. As a guy that loves bbq, you're right it's all in the rub.
and you're also right, that it was all my choice. -Seriously second guessing that choice of late. Maybe I'll eat meat at the bbq? Could be the day. Happy 4th guys, have fun.

I forgot to mention, if you didn't know, when you smoke or cook lean meats like a big bird or whole pieces of fish, you want to brine them. It helps keep them nice and moist and gives you a longer cook time so that the flavors are more robust. I use a very simple guide from cooks illustrated. You can find the pdf here.
