Today I want to talk about one of my favorite pieces of cooking equipment. One that you've seen portions of in photos for months now. One that I use multiple times every week and that never lets me down. This is my Weber Performer Deluxe, the souped up charcoal grill...
I'm not sure if I was just worn out from the 4th of July or what, but I did not feel like myself for most of the day on the 5th. It took a rough workout and about a gallon of water to get me back to normal, but once I was there it felt like time for a new post. So I...
This weekend a bunch a bunch of friends and I headed up to the Canyon Lake area and floated the Guadalupe. We had a lot of fun and got to enjoy a nice hot day. The river was pretty crowded, as you'd expect on a Saturday afternoon in late June, but it wasn't...
Friday always seems like the longest day of the week. Even though it's the one most looked forward to. I put together a playlist to help my day go by a little quicker and figured I'd share. This bitty is called "Friday Furlong" because it's the last little stretch...

This is a little different than my usual review since there's no alcohol involved. My wife and I stumbled upon this group by accident when we got to the Dalton Domino show at Conway's a little early. They were the opening act that we tried not to pay much attention...
You read that correctly. I smoked a brisket on a standard sized Weber kettle grill yesterday and it turned out awesome. Don't get me wrong it was a lot of work for a scorching hot first Sunday in June, but it was worth it. Read on to find out how to apply this method...
It's been about a week away from posting, which has bothered me, but it was a busy week between the holiday weekend and a buddy's bachelor party. Although I wasn't writing during that time, I did do a few things that were Westbound Soul worthy like finally getting to...
