Back before I built my first offset smoker I used Webber Bullets. They were a great starter but I would need 24 of them to match the capacity of Valhalla

Well we did a run of Brisket Lumpia. While it was really good the expert tasting panel didn't think it better than the Mary's original lumpia the RD will continue.

Getting ready for our trial run of Brisket Lumpia

It is with great sadness I have to say goodbye to Jeff Lanich my good friend, co-worker and a big part of the Vandervate BBQ Family. Jeff had a great sense of humor and was the type of guy that would go above and beyond to help other people. He once helped me cooking for an event by spelling me on the smoker at midnight with 10 inches of snow on the ground and it was 5 degrees outside. Jeff of course showed up in shorts and was unfazed by the cold. Jeff was a good Christian man and is now with God and far better off. We however, will miss him greatly. Enjoy the sausage and deep fried cheese curds in heaven my friend.

We will be updating our website in April. Look for some new items on the menu.

When I was at Camp Brisket one of the owners of a Texas BBQ mentioned his wife was Korean and they had added some menu items mixing Korean and Texas BBQ. This got me thinking. Most people know my wife is Filipino and she make the best Lumpia Ever so why not added Brisket. What does everyone think about Brisket Lumpia?
