Here are some of my favorite rubs and seasonings I use for backyard barbecue as well as other dishes I like to cook. Most of these are available at Champion BBQ Supply here in Oklahoma City. The best source (because of supply chain issues I think) for Meat Church rubs is Buc-ees gas stations down …

Carolina Style Grilled Chicken
Truth be told, I have no idea if this is how Carolina-style smoked chicken really / officially tastes. But I found this barbecue sauce at our local Champion BBQ Supply Store in Oklahoma City, and it turned out great! One of the employees recommended the Piggy Bank Pork & Rib Rub, so I tried them …
Cleaning Smoker Grill Grates
Cleaning your outdoor smoker or grill gates can be a pain but is very important. This is a 14 minute tutorial video (“Cleaning Smoker Grill Grates with an Overnight Soak”) on how I clean the VERY dirty grates on my RecTeq RT-700 Bull smoker periodically using the $13 “Carbona 2-In 1 Oven Rack & Grill …
Log: Smoked Chuck Roast
Brisket prices are high, so why not smoke a chuck roast just like a brisket? That’s what I did today, and the results were great. I didn’t narrate the cook video this time, but did start with the best part: The requisite taste test by Rosie and Moose, our golden retrievers. They approved! "Smoked Chuck …
Log: New Year’s Brisket Jalapeño Poppers
Smoking a brisket as I did yesterday can have wonderful ripple effects and ancillary benefits. Brisket scrambled eggs and brisket jalapeño poppers are two of my favorite recipes to cook with leftover brisket. Tonight’s poppers were definitely the best I’ve ever cooked personally, so I wanted to be sure and document some of the details …
Log: Holiday Smoked Prime Rib

Log: Pellet Smoker Pizza Oven Pizza
I’m getting closer to perfecting delicious “oven stone cooked cauliflower pizza crust pizza” 🍕 on our pellet smoker! I found these “Caulipower cauliflower crusts” at Walmart, just $6.50 for two. We’ve tried three or four different kinds of cauliflower pizza dough and crust so far, and this is absolutely our favorite! (See my post from …
Log: Pellet Smoker Pizza Oven
I’ve been cooking homemade pizzas for a couple months now on the “wood fired pizza attachment” from Green Mountain Grills, which fits perfectly on my RecTeq RT-700 Bull smoker / pellet grill. This is the first time I’ve written down the results of my iterative experiments, however, so I’m hoping this documentation will lead to …
Log: Smoked Salmon & Shrimp with Gospel Rub
Yesterday’s Friday night dinner included smoked salmon, shrimp, and a garden salad. This was the first time I’ve cooked both salmon and shrimp skewers using Meat Church BBQ’s All Purpose Rub. Here’s a summary of my cook notes and lessons learned. When cooking fish and seafood, I think it’s best to cook at a high …

Log: Courage Butternut Squash with Shish Kabobs
Last night I originally thought I would just grill out (smoke on the pellet smoker) some chicken. Watching our AI powered “recent highlights” album from Google Photos on our bedroom Chromecast-powered TV, however, I saw a photo of a past shish kabob cook. This inspired the thought, “I can cook that tonight!” We LOVE enjoying …
