    Heads Up Temperature Probe Calibrations

    I have been a smoker for a very long time, but I'm getting to the point/ age that I'm leaning toward pellet smokers. I want to try the "set it and forget it" camp. So... I bought a used Recteq RT700 a couple weeks ago from a guy who said he fought with it for a year or so and finally gave up. I...

    Stuffed meatloaf- Good stuff!

    Stuffed a meatloaf this weekend. OMG it was fabulous! 2 1/2 lb ground beef (the good stuff). Flattened. Add your favorite ML seasonings. Layer with smoked ham, baby swiss, and fresh spinach. Roll it up. Loaf it in a pan as usual (we made it into two smaller loaves and froze one). Smoke it at...

    Proper seasoning?

    I have aquired a sizable amount of apple limbs, about 3-4" diameter (80 or so pounds). They are freshly cut and green. My thought is to chunk them and pack the pieces in onion sacks and hang them for some time in the loft of my garage (not the attic). It gets somewhat warm up there in the...

    Deep Frying

    I got a real nice turkey frier for Christmas, and just what I needed- a whole new hobby! Anyway, does anyone know of a good forum site for using these things. I want to do more than just an occasional turkey. Need recipes and techniques for deep fat friers. Here I go again!

    Coffee mop for spiral hams

    As spiral cut hams have a reputation for drying out during smoking, I have found a delectable solution that will keep them moist and tender without overpowering the ham flavor that we seek. I use this mop recipe on the half hour during the smoke and, since most spiral hams are pre-cooked, they...

    I Hate This Site

I have become totally addicted to cruising all over every single page as often as I can, and you guys just keep posting cool things about cool stuff using cool methods . One of several things is going to happen- 1. I will get fired...

    Wine barrel chips

    OK, so I have a couple bags of wine barrel chips. Don't know why, but I bought em anyway. What the heck do I do with em now? Anyone ever used these chips? I've used the Jack Daniels chips, but never the wine.

    Water use in smokers

    OK, so Iâ€8482m new here, but I may be opening a proverbial can of worms. Not really my intention, but Iâ€8482m just interested in your thoughts. Most of us have been smoking meats and fish for many years, and we certainly have our favorite recipes and methods. My "can-o-worms" involves the use...

    My Homemade Electric Rig

    First time adding pics. If they took, here are a few snaps of my rig. My daughter named it the Trojan Horse. It ain't much, but I call it my own. The stainless box is an old derelict food warmer from a catering outfit. It was discarded because the existing elements in the walls were all burned...

    West Virginia Smoker

    Hey folks. Mark here. New to your forum, but been smoking stuff for many years. I just thought it might be nice to yak with other obsessive and discerning meat eaters. I started out with a Lilâ€8482 Chef then graduated to a Brinkmann round unit. Neither one had enough oomph or space, so I built...
