McClure's BBQ (4 Viewers)

[Village Idiot]

Shirt arrived today! I'm debating washing it cuz it smells like heaven...

Ha! Yeah Tipsy's rub is potent stuff. Thoughts on the shirt?

I'll tell you when/if my shirt gets here.

Apparently it's a long way from downtown Memphis out to there we live.

 

[Super King]

how long did it take you to cut the sleeves off?

Sleeves still intact

Did you ever get a shipping notice or tracking? I got the order confirmation but nothing about it shipping or any tracking info.

Theyre not doing tracking for these. Keep in mind you're dealing with a small independent retailer shipping via USPS. We've all been spoiled by Amazon Prime (Myself included). USPS Tracking just adds unnecessary cost as they are worthless. I've had "Delivery notifications" nearly a week after a package has been delivered before.

No worries at all, just was wondering if there was any kind of notification they went out.

I'll be the one cutting the sleeves off!

On the rub, what's the recommendation for best use? Smoked ribs, pork, brisket? Or seasoning for steak?

I think somewhere in this thread Tipsy mentioned it can be used on any of the above but that a little bit of rub goes a long way (haha). Also that the rub doesn't include salt and pepper.

Yea, I remember that, but since we're only getting a little bit, what meat and prep method would be IDEAL.

I'd just do a small pork shoulder with it. Cut in a 1:1 ratio of salt/pepper to make it perhaps a 2:1 rub/s&p ratio then apply liberally. Leave a little back to make a sauce if you do that sort of thing. With pork usually vinegar in the finish sauce gives you more of the salt/pepper component you want.

Smoke it over hickory.

Will try this exactly. Thanks.

It's free with Stamps.com, but I agree with you that it's worthless.

So I won a T-shirt in a twitter contest for a local chain type BBQ place last week. I got an email that I should expect it this week. Got home and wife tells me I got a package. Look over and see a red bag and immediately think of the local place because of the color.

I rip it open and say "Look honey its my free Smithfields BBQ shirt!" and hold it up to my chest.

She gives me a weird look and says "yeah except it says McClures BBQ."

I then had to explain about another magic football friend. Good times.

His mailbox must be huge, maybe he needs to send a search party in?

 

[Foosball God]

Mine didn't come yesterday either.

 

[Hawks64]

Got mine, it's a really nice shirt Tipsy!

 

[Ray Karpis]

Love the shirt. Smells divine.

Planning to try the rub tomorrow on the grill...still pondering my meat.

Do you have any idea what the street value of this brisket is?

Hey guys, it sounds like not everyone has received their shirt yet. My F5 button is getting a little worn out with the suspension. Please make sure you update the thread as soon as you get. Don't wait around or anything. The suspension is killing us. Also, I was a little unclear on exactly who ordered one. Along the same lines, if anybody orders one, also make sure you let us all know. Super important. TIA.

Suspense. Unless your car is really bouncy, in which case, yes: worn-out suspension is really annoying.

This was a good entry. I'd definitely say you're in the running for board ########.

 

[Joe Mammy]

These are the facts-

I'm the first FBG to make an onsite McClures tshirt purchase a couple of weekends ago.

Later that same day I strolled down Bourbon St., a member of a disctinct minority- I have not been bitten by the Gay and apparently everyone else had as it was Decadence Weekend. But from a balcony above I was tossed a promotional tshirt from a radio station, a Red Stag by Jim Beam.

Both tshirts are almost identical blends of cotton and polyester- actually quite comfortable. Now I'm not saying that the tshirt is cheap like a radio station giveaway- obviously, Jimmie Beam is stepping up their game. Nice shirt Icon!

We enjoyed the food and my 5 star Yelp review is up. Looking forward to brisket on the next visit.

Doh!

 

[BigJohn]

Tshirt in.

Yeah, I'm too fat.

 

[Foosball God]

Got it, it's actually lighter weight than I thought. Very soft though.

 

[JoeSteeler]

got my shirt!

 

[AcerFC]

Just got mine. A little snug, but the XL would have been too big

I must use too much rub because I would need 6 of those baggies for a rack of ribs. I'll definitely use it on a steak or chicken breast.

Thanks icon and tipsy

Remember there is no salt, pepper or sugar in this mix, so it will stretch.

I wore my shirt today. I already had a guy ask if he could take a picture of the back of it.

This. Not too bad, but enough that it might help me kick start working out.

Icon. What was the distribution of sizes.

Remember there is no salt, pepper or sugar in this mix, so it will stretch.

plus I sent him literally a truckload of my rub. I am willing to send it to anyone else too. You'll need to add cumin, paprika, granulated garlic, granulated onion, chili powder, brown sugar, kosher salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, white pepper and a baggie.

and the truck.

No idea on distribution of sizes... I don't actually handle any of the fulfillment. I'm sure tipsy will get a report in a few weeks.
