    Smoke Hollow stick burner

    A friend from church dropped off this Smoke Hollow stick burner today. I have never used one before, I have used propane and charcoal. The smoker is pretty sound although the firebox need the rust removed and paint applied. Any hints, help or suggestions are welcome. Boomerang Dave

    Rollin A Fatty: My Version

    Thanks, that was a big help. Thanks to the wife too, excellent photos Dave PS to Silverwolf: I've been in your neck of the woods. I have a friend who is the minister at the Moravian Church in Gnadenhutten. We found out the closest grocery store is in Uhlrichsville.

    Double Smoked Hams---Times 4 (Step by Step)

She got one of her favorites from Wegmans (You know Wegman's, Bear, don't you?) The other came from Bottom Dollar and was cheap. Well I am looking...

No one has addressed why it was so wimpy tasting. I can make meatloaf in the oven better than this. yOh, btw, if a...

    Failed meatloaf

    I think I can solve the part about it falling apart. There were two things, one is that it was formed and placed on a tray and placed in the fridge to firm up and chill.

    Failed meatloaf

    Been smoking for more than 25 years but never did meatloaf before. I tried it for the first time yesterday and probably will never make it again. I used a recipe off the internet, figuring most people posting have already perfected their recipe for best results. My wife thought the meatloaf...

    Hi Bearcarver. Yes, you are close.. You mentioned Quakertown. Labor Day weekend I was at a butcher on Richlandtown Pike and got a rack of beef short ribs to smoke. The rack weighed 22 pounds and was cut into 4 pieces. I lucked out and only paid $2.50 a pound. It was really aw3esome after it was...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    I'm new to the group and my screen name is pretty easy to figure out. I have been making and throwing boomerangs for about 25 years now. Been smoking longer than that.
