Outlaw BBQ Sauce from 5-0 BBQ

BBQ Smoker Box for the grill

The BBQ Equipment Store

I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and our new web-site www.bbqequipmentstore.com

My name is Steve Rogers and I am the founder of 5-0 BBQ LLC.  After years of traveling as a Petty Officer with the United States Coast Guard  I developed a passion for BBQ and learned techniques from the United States and the Caribbean.   I would say my cooking style is more Kansas City with a Carolina mix.  The decision was made in 2006 to start a BBQ company with my wife Leah having the sole purpose to bottle my own line of Barbecue Sauce.

In 2007 we bottled and branded my Outlaw BBQ line of BBQ Sauce and Dry Rubs.

Outlaw BBQ Sauce

I put together a basic web-site www.5-0bbq.com to promote the Outlaw BBQ Line.  Within a year the site went from selling just sauce and rubs to carrying over 400 BBQ, Cooking and Restaurant related products.  We a very picky and only sell products that we would use and are of the highest quality.  I also constantly search the web checking competitor prices, look for new products and help support small businesses that are trying bring fresh new ideas to bbq, grilling and the outdoor cooking world.

In 2009 after having great success with www.5-0bbq.com we decided it was time to launch a domain that says what we are a Barbecue Equipment Store. A store where you can call us at 1-888-977-4bbq and speak to a real person that knows BBQ and the products that we sell.  We know the products because well use or have used most of them.  We are driven by one thing, CUSTOMER SERVICE!  We want you to have a store where you can find what you need at a low price and have a great experience.  We did not start all of this to make a quick dollar selling junk that no one wants and at the end feel ripped of.  We are here to promote the art of BBQ and help people cook food that they will love.

If you are looking for great deals on some of these great brands Bayou Classic, Primo Grills, Maverick Thermometers, Smoke Pistol, Fire Magic, Broilmaster, AOG or need a propane burner, turkey fryer, stock pot, grill, smoker, ceramic grill, cast iron cookware, cook books, sauces and rubs we are here on either site www.5-0bbq.com or www.bbqequipmentstore.com

Need any help we are here for you.

Maverick ET-73 Digital Remote Smoker Thermometer

If you own a ceramic charcoal grill,  then you need to own a Maverick ET-73 Remote Digital Food Thermometer.  I have been using my Maverick ET-73 on a Primo Oval XL for a year now.  The digital thermometer is highly dependable and I rely on it to conduct overnight cooking on my Primo ceramic grill.  Prior to using my Maverick ET-73 I had to wake up and go outside to check the temperature of my smoker and my meat.  Now I am able to set the alarms on the thermometer to alert me if the temperature in getting to high or to low on the grill and will alert me to the temperature of the meat.  With the dependability of the ET-73  and the fuel efficiency of my Primo Oval XL I am able to now get a nights sleep and enjoy my Barbecue the next day.

New Advice From Smoke Pistol for Difficulty Lighting Cartridge

Due to recent problems with keeping the Smoke Pistol lit.   Smoke Pistol has changed the directions for lighting the cartridge.

Difficulty lighting cartridge. 

To start your SmokePistol™ operating properly you must do two things. First, you must light the tip of the cartridge and get it glowing, and second you must get the glowing tip of the cartridge and the wood inside the cartridge to fall into the SmokePistol™ chamber. The SmokePistol™ does not generate its own heat so you must get a fire going. The problem many people have is that they burned away too much of the tip of the cartridge and the wood falls through the cartridge tip into the burn chamber of the SmokePistol™leaving a partially unburned tip inside the cartridge tube. To avoid this, light just the very tip of the cartridge, then quickly fan a small amount of air on to the cartridge tip to see that it is glowing. Then quickly insert the cartridge into the SmokePistol™ chamber. Now pump the cartridge up and down inside the SmokePistol™ chamber taping it firmly at the bottom of the chamber. After doing this about four or five times you should feel the wood fall out of the cartridge into the burn chamber. Now use the ramrod to clear the barrel and set the SmokePistol™ smoke control to medium. Then hold the burst button on for about 2 seconds then off for about 5 seconds a few times to get the SmokePistol™ smoking. Once it is smoking well, turn the smoke control to high, and rotate and shake the cartridge so that the wood falls into the burn chamber. Leave the SmokePistol™ on a high for about 5 minutes before setting to the desired smoke output.

This should help with any problems with keeping the Smoke Pistol Lit.
