Great Forum!

[buffalosmoke]

Greetings....I happened to stumble across the forum while searching the net for something...can't remember now!

I have been smoking for about 12 years now. I started with a New Braunfels barrel grill. It didn't even have an offset, but I made some darn good Q with that grill.

I'd really like to get a Tejas smoker or a Klose.....but until I win the lottery...I'm using what I have...all in my sig.

Smoked about 6lbs of salmon yesterday in the little chief....came out great. I'll be doing a 20lb fresh ham this weekend...not cured, but I am going to brine it.

Sounds like you are doing great! Nice collection you have going on, you fire up the little and big chief and send thin blue smoke signals?
Glad you could join the site. Hope to see lots of good Qviews.

Welcome. Be sure to take lots of photos and show us your work. I'm doing all of my smoking on a Weber Kettle. There's lots of different methods being used on this site. Including one guy who made a smoker out of 2 flower pots. Anything goes.

Thanks for all the welcomes!

I am working/living away from home for awhile...but I have my Little Chief with me for my smoking pleasure.

I'll be home on vacation for a week after Easter, and besides the 20lb fresh ham, I hope to do a fair amount of Q'in. Ribs for sure.

Tons of great info here! Looking forward to doing some bacon soon....and a batch of almonds too!

Hope this helps make your mind up;





She's by Tejas and is about $1500. cheaper. She does a great job and holds heat very well. With a few mods. you can have a truly great smoker(sorry Dave Klose and the Gator bunch)
With a 20"X40" smoker chamber and the upright, you can cook and hold or slooow cook anything.
I preburn my wood and use the embers to cook with, cleaner smoke and no nasties to spoil the meat(soot-creasote,etc.) Gives a lighter smoke flavor too,not overpowering

Have fun and HAPPY SMOKES

Nice lookin' Tejas there bbqfans! It's not in my budget at this time...so I'll just have to covet yours:) Had been thinking of a Weber bullet too, as I really miss the flavor I got from long charcoal cooking. But, seems the price on those has skyrocketed too.

Thanks smokyjeff...you're right.....I do like it here already!
