Food Smokers and Smoking Tips/Tricks/Techniques

Anyone here use a stick burner. Bought a cord of almond for firewood at the tail end of winter and have some leftover. Been using chunks in my smoker but I’m thinking this stuff would be killer in a stick burner. So now I want one

Oh and I’m cooking a tri-tip.


My cousin uses logs in his weber I just can’t remember how he did it. Been awhile.

 

Kebabs are on!

 

Anybody have a recipe for smoked beans? Tried to search through the thread but didn't see anything. Was thinking of making some smoked mac & cheese soon and figured this would make a nice complement. Going to give Cold Iron's mac & cheese recipe a go.

 

BEANS

6 slices thick-cut bacon, diced
1 large shallot diced
1 Tablespoon garlic, minced
1 cup tomato sauce
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
¼ cup molasses
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 15 oz can black beans
1 15 oz can navy beans
1 15 oz can red beans

Dice up bacon and cook in a 12 inch cast iron skillet. Add in shallots and garlic and cook for a couple of minutes. Stir everything else in and put in smoker. Stir every 30 minutes.

Beans smoked for 90 minutes at 250F

 

Haven’t tried myself, but recently saw this. Figured it could be adapted to a smoker.

Put a chunk of meat over it from the juice to drop and you're money.

This is @Cold Iron 's recipe that a lot of us have been using for years.

 

Haha beat me to it !

 

And @la0d0g beat me!

 

Thanks Guys, this looks totally Keto friendly!!
Cant wait to try this.

 

What noodles do you use for keto?

 

I was kidding, I think any Keto fake noodle would ruin this recipe!
The ones I have tried were from whole foods, but they either have good texture and taste like crap, or they have alright taste but are mush.
