Broken GrillSomething went wrong and we couldn't find the page you wanted. Do not despair, I will get you there! Here's how:

  1. If you got to this page by clicking on a link on another website, or a link in your favorite places or bookmarks list, probably the file name has been changed in order to better organize things as my site grows. The new name shouldn't be hard to locate if you go to my table of contents. It lists all the pages on the site.
  2. If you got to this page by clicking on one of the pages within AmazingRibs.com, click the back button, then click the "reload" or "refresh" button on the top of your browser, and try again. Your browser may have "cached", or stored, a page whose name has changed.
  3. Try searching the site by using the search box just above this text.
  4. If none of this helps, please click this link to send email to me. In your letter, tell me that page you are looking for and it would be very helpful if you tell me the URL of the page you were on before this one.

Please please please read this before posting a comment or question:

1) Please use the table of contents or the search box at the top of every page before you ask for help.
2) Please click the "Follow Conversation" button or the "Email" button below your comment so you will be alerted when we reply.
3) Please don't ask any questions that involve temperature unless you tell us that you are using a digital thermometer! Dial thermometers are often off by as much as 50°F! If you are not using a good digital you have no idea what the temp really is so we can't help you. Please read this article about thermometers, then buy one of our recommendations, and then, if the problem persists (chances are it won't), hit us with your questions.
4) Please tell us everything we need to know to answer your question like the type of cooker you are using.

5) If you are shopping for a grill or smoker and need help, tell us your budget!
