Thanks to Matt Crawford (@SasquatchBBQ), I was able to try two Allen Brothers Wagyu Ribeyes earlier this month.
What a treat! The steaks came out juicy, tender, and packing big beefy flavor.
For the crust, I started with an olive oil base, and rubbed down with coarse salt and fresh cracked pepper.
Whether you’re brand new to Traeger, or a seasoned pro, these four products will make your smoking experience even that much better. Frankly, we think the company should ship these standard with every grill!
I took the opportunity of the first three day weekend of the year to try my hand at a full packer brisket. A “packer” contains both the point and flat.

We make pulled pork about once or twice a month. Usually smoke a big fatty pork butt or shoulder. Unless we’re having a backyard patio party, we have a few pounds leftover.

But when you have a day old heap of pulled pork sitting in your fridge, what to do with it?
We like to make Bahn Mi Pulled Pork Sandwiches! Here’s how…
