Food Smokers and Smoking Tips/Tricks/Techniques

This is a 2 lb boneless Ribeye that I smoked for almost 5 hours. It was absolutely delicious...... better then the last one.

 

That looks delish!

 

Here is a pic of a couple of things I like to do on my Weber SM.

 

It was REALLY really good, def making it again!!!!

 

I'm sure it was great, but I find anything with bone in while smoking produces even more flavor.

 

This is a good website for smoking different types of foods; along with good techniques for preparing them. http://www.smoker-cooking.com/sitemap.html

 

I did about 8 with the bone, no where near as good in my experiences.

 

I finally pulled the trigger. Had a bunch of points to use on my Amazon credit card so picked up a Brinkmann smoker for 13 bucks lol. Figure it will be good enough to get a start.

 

One of the electric bullet smokers? That'll be a good start for sure. Start with a pork shoulder, you can't mess 'em up!

 

It's a charcoal one. Pork shoulder is what I plan on trying first!

 

Even better.

 

That is the one that I have. It works well, and it is so cheap because you will spend alot of money on charcoal and wood. I am very happy with it and will continue to use it until I have to upgrade. Saturday night I am going to start making 14 racks of ribs for a party Sunday. I am really looking forward to that. I am waiting for my order or 2 rib racks for the smoker that holds 5 racks of ribs at once.

 

can you turn the V-rack for your roasting pan over and use it? mine works that way.

 

There is a bracket all around the bottom of that style rack. I thought about it though. I already ordered these racks and they are being delivered.

 

Mine works. But I tossed one that didn't. I love kitchen tools that do more than one trick.

 

^^^ Yeah definitely. Right now the only thing I am looking for in the kitchen is a wok. I want 2, 1 really good one for actually wok cooking and the other to use with bamboo steamer pots as quick indoor smoker. I can't think of anything else that I need in the kitchen. Everyone gets me kitchen stuff for my Bday and Xmas.... it is kind of getting old.... no not really!!!!

 

yea..i need a wok also. and i am chinese!!

my stove puts out pathetic BDU's...but a turkey fryer, with a wok is amazing. we use one for camping.

 

That is a good idea. My oven is amazing, and the flame is high!!!! I do like the idea of the turkey fryer.

 

Here are some of the pics, all 45 lb of ribs are done. That smoker did a good job getting them all cooked. Lunch will be around 2 ish. The finishing touch is going to be some bbq sauce and onto the grill low and slow to get them glazed up nice.

Here is the chimney doing some work, the coals were super hot today. It was nice seeing them glow since it was so dark out....






Here is the wrap job to keep some of the smoke in, the ribs were flowing over the edge pretty bad so I had to come up with something. The good thing about this set up was that I couldnt mess around and look at the meat as it was cooking. It went almost 4 hours before I took a peak. I just kept the fire hot and a nice seal with the foil.
