    Smoking a shoulder in COLD weather

    I live in florida. So I can smoke pretty much all year around without any problem. This Christmas I will be going up to Illinois to visit my wife's family. Last summer they all had a visit and I made them some pulled pork and they really liked it. So they want me to cook it for Christmas...

    Pig In The Ground

    Ahhh the Fijian Lovo. Lived in Fiji for 2 years and had lots of good food. All manner of things were put in the ground. First they would dig a hole and fill it with BIG rocks. They would pile lots of wood on the rocks. A fire would be started and it would heat the rocks. While the fire...

    Food network

    My buddy watched the show a LONG time ago and made the smoker. He smokes about every other month. Everything he makes turns out great. What is nice about that smoker is the clay pots retain the heat so when he has to open it up to add more chips it gets back up to temp really quick. And to...

    How Often Do You Smoke And Eat Smoked Meats

    I smoke about once a month. I freeze in one serving portions. My wife and I will share one portion for meals. The meat will stretch for about a month. Not bad for a pork shoulder.

    Rain, schmain!

    When ever the lawn starts to get a bit brown and crispy i just break out the smoker. As soon as I get it smoking it starts to rain. And it will rain for the rest of the smoke. I have become very skilled at using beach umbrellas to keep the smoker dry. But it is funny when people come to...

    Is it me?

    Yea I pulled my first one. It came out great I even plotted the temps pretty much 10 degrees an hour until the plateau. That is what I think is weird. I am 95% sure the thermometer is accurate. The smoker is at a temp of around 230. And finally I keep it in a breeze free area. I don't...
