    My Thanksgiving practice run

    ​Did you apply a rub before leaving it rest in the fridge over night or is it better to apply rub right before smoking?

    Partial brisket

    The small one of mine seems to work real well.  I kept it at 250 for 5 hours.  When the chips burned down I put a little more in.  I also liked hickory, but then I am the only one I have to please, usually.  My son and his young lady put bbq sauce on everything any way. I got my recipe from...

    How did it come out?  I really enjoyed the juiciness of mine.

    Partial brisket

    ​Thanks, it really was great.  Is it difficult to learn how to make smoked sausage?  I lived in Germany for 2 years and that is one thing I miss.

    Considering buying an Electric smoker

    I am single and have a son and daughter in law that come over to eat.  A few weeks ago I bought an electric Masterbuilt Bullet with 2 racks.  I have smoked some salmon, chicken quarters and today I am doing a 4lb brisket.  So far it has worked great and I am happy with it. It is easy to clean...

    Partial brisket

    Are you putting something below it to catch the grease drippings?  I thought I would and could use it to baste halfway through.

    I will also be doing mine today.  We can compare notes after it settles in our stomach.

    Partial brisket

    Being single, sometimes I won't be smoking large quantities.  Today I got a 4lb point.  As far as heat and time, would I smoke it the same as a whole?  Any thoughts would be appreciated.  If it comes out good I will do a whole one later for family to come over.

    New adventure

    I am new to smoking meats, but I am having a blast.  So far I have done smoked salmon and yesterday had excellent result with chicken quarters.  Now I would like to try some beef.  Any suggestions?  I have a Masterbuilt Bullet with 2 racks, so I am looking for something not too big to feed 3 or...

    I am ready to try my second adventure in smoking tomorrow.  My Masterbuilt Bullet came with a pan for water.  Is it always advisable to put water in the pan when smoking? Also, how do I start a new thread when not in "Roll Call"?  Or do I always use that as a starting place?

    Chicken legs

    Will this work with leg quarters and what is Tony's, a seasoning?  also I assume you made the brine with water?  This will be my second smoke.  Last week I did some smoked salmon and it was delicious.

    Chicken Again....

    Thanks, it looks good.  I am just learning.  Thus far I have done salmon and then country style spare ribs.  Both turned out great.  This weekend I will do chicken hind quarters.  BTY, I lived in Winthrop in the mid 70s.  Worked at H&J's on Main street and then 3 Fingered Jacks in the good old...

    Retired from Montana

    Well, I have learned that practice makes perfect.  Today I tried my Bullet for the first time, smoking a large fillet of salmon.  The recipe called for a brine with lemons, lime, oranges and crab/shrimp seasoning.  Not bad but pretty tart.  I kept the temp at about 225 but they finished in less...
