If it made us stop scrolling, it probably deserves a spot here. From gear to techniques to the occasional internet chaos, this is the stuff we’re paying attention to this week.


🥩 ROSEMARY BRISKET: Four veterans of Killen's Restaurant Group opened Eastbound Barbecue in Houston's East Downtown. The review makes it sound tempting.

🥩 PIT BOSS DX: Connected pellet grilling on sale for $549 with this Lowe's exclusive. Oh, and there’s WiFi included. If the Traeger Westwood wasn't for you, this one's worth a look.

🥩 MOST SAVED: Food & Wine rounded up the most-saved grilling recipes of the season.

🥩 BBQ SIMULATOR: Real or a joke? Because if it’s real… take our money 👇

🥩 SMOKING AMP: BBQ and rock and roll in one unit. Finally.

🥩 BBQ DEEP DIVE: Just watch it 👇

🥓 SKIP PORCELAIN: Porcelain-coated grill grates chip, rust, and don't last. Make sure you go cast iron or stainless. This is the long version.

🥓 COCONUT CHARCOAL: We’re seeing a longer burn time, higher heat, and less ash. If you haven't tried it, this is the breakdown you should check out before your next long cook.

🥓 RUSTY GRATES: Know when to clean, when to season, and when to just replace them.

🥓 POPULAR STEAKS: Ribeye couldn’t be more popular, but flat iron is climbing. With beef prices where they are, this list is a good read.
