    Malcom,

    I love your website and I appreciate you sharing your recipes and success with everyone. I want to ask if using plastic oven baking bags can be used to wrap meats instead of foil? I normally use foil but for larger items such as pork butts, it can be more difficult to get a good seal, or at least for a novice like me. I appreciate your feedback. Happy Grillin’!

    • Malcom Reed says:

      Yeah – that will work for storing meat in the fridge for a short time. Same as using ziplock bags. For freezing meat, I suggest vacuum sealing it or wrapping it in the wax-backed butcher paper.

        Malcolm, in your YouTube videos, why not use a Weber Kettle once in awhile.
        I enjoy all your videos but can’t relate what you are doing on a BGE, or a drum smoker etc., with my Weber Kettle, or my Mes 30 smoker. I just don’t have as many different types of smokers as you do, but there are many more guys and gals that have just Kettles.
        Thanks in advance for all you do to help us common folk.

    All I can say is thank you……thank you……….and THANK YOU !!!!!!!

    You got it going on, brother.

    Every single one of your recipes that I’ve tried is on point and an instant family favorite. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your sharing this with us.

    Your rubs are stellar, too.

    I was in a local grilling supply store lately and bought some of your rib rub and the guy at the counter asked if I’d tried your A.P. rub. I hadn’t….and went on to add a bottle that day.

    I’ve always made killer guac…..but now, with your A.P. rub in it it’s Killer Hogs Guac Goodness !!!!!
