Food Smokers and Smoking Tips/Tricks/Techniques

That's what I said when she asked why I was starting her out on the lawn.

 

Hell of a haul

 

Use vinegar to thin sauce for pork. White is good but Apple cider is better.

 

Called local places... one said yes charcoal is on sale for the low low price of ... 9.79 for a giant 15# bag. Flyer from Wally world says 7.88 for a twin pack of 15lb bags. 45 miles away, but so be it. On sale my ass!

 

Good simple advice. Agreed, if you want a quick one ingredient solution, ac vinegar is it. There’ll be enough fat to mix with the acid.

 

Sounds like a road trip!

 

It will be a combined trip, aka other stuff not available locally.

 

I know @scottalot farts in my general direction at this, but my bullpen is loaded for now. Between the 360lbs today and what I had on hand, I figure this is in the neighborhood of 475lbs. Ought to buy me a little time.

 

Rubbed ribs ridin' smoke. @Cold Iron I'm making your recipe for mac n cheese, on the smoker. I will be running at 165* then 225* for 3 hours or so. Should the mac n cheese be cooked that long?

 

I used to keep a journal now I just post pictures on here as my journal Let me look and see what I can find. You have to let it go long enough for the cream to be absorbed but if you go too long it will dry out on you. Toward the end stir it to check, but best not to stir until you need to.

Edit found it. But if your using a larger batch might take longer. 3 hours may be just about right for you with lower temps-
Timing is critical on those it took me 2.5 hours any more they would have been over done. That was at 240 degrees.



Round 2, this mornings haul



614 lbs. of KBB should get me to the July 4th sale. At least I'm to the bottom of the Musky net now.

 

Between TDYs, surgeries, work, and family, I haven’t had much time to fire up the smoker.

Got up early drinking coffee and setting mine up for the brisket, I’ve missed the smell and solidarity that comes with bbq-ing and smoking

 

Everyone have a safe Memorial Day weekend. Raise one up for the fallen and those who ain’t made it back yet.

 

Thanks. I hope I don't F it up. 600# of charcoal?!!! Scottalot is gonna be jelly.

 

Dad just hooked it up for my upcoming bday! Super stoked to try these!

You are going to like them, My wife has some and she loves them

 

Good to know! With my 10" shun premier I now have a great set going. Just need to get a fancy knife block now. @lilred95 ...

 

OK my kid doesn’t say ‘SEND IT’ and that will be changed quickly.

 

Too funny!

 

Mac n cheese is done... taste tested, and kept in a warm oven. Dayum it's good. @Cold Iron you are the man! Thanks again.

 

Glad you like it Curt, it is pretty darn tasty! Back on Atkins so I can only dream about it now. I had no doubt you could do it, hell I did it
