Hi All,
Smoking again this weekend and am after some tips for tenderloin. Any idea on approx cooking times? Without a meat thermometer so am gonna have to go on cooking times and cross my fingers. Do I need to wrap it in foil after a certain period or just the whole time without it? Also with a...
Cheers guys yeah I have one like in the picture. Will make sure it is fully inserted into the meat. Me and my friend are gonna put our ecb's side by side and have a smoke off. Pork in one and brisket in the other, think there will be some ribs and some stuffed peppers and mushrooms and gonna try...
Hi all,
Doing a smoke this weekend but I do not have a digital thermometer gauge. I do have a meat thermometer that you can stick in meat and I am wondering if I could just put that in the meat and leave it in there whilst the meat is in the smoker but not sure if that will work? A bit silly...
Am doing a smoke this weekend and need some advice. Have not fitted an air damper on the lid nor blocked off the gap around the lid. Was thinking of filling part of the gap with tin foil but leaving a space to allow some smoke out to avoid making the food taste acrid. Any suggestions about any...

How long do you think it would take to smoke a shoulder of pork bone in that weighs 5 kg? Also any answers to shortening the cookung time but still getting the smokey flavour?
Ron EB - think the one you have is the Brinkmann Gourmet smoker which has a case at the bottom enclosing it whereas mine is open at the bottom. Have seen someone take off the legs and sit it on the floor and put a damper on the side at the bottom so could always try that. Have seen that people...

Hi Mark,
That looks pretty damn good. Making we wish I had some to eat tonight!!
What do you think the best cut is for Pulled Pork. I keep hearing Boston Butt mentioned but get the feeling this is an american term. Is it just the shoulder of pork with the bone in from the neck end?
Also are...
BOBOBBBQ - you should do a road trip to Bristol. There seems to a recent influx of BBQ restaurants and AMerican style food or 'dude food'. Another I forgot to mention is MeatLiquor which are in London. There are 3 i think in London with various names. Heard a rumour that there will be one soon...
Hi Wade,
Thanks a lot for you tips. Thinking of doing some dry runs with the smoker just using coal to get used to temperature control and not wasting time and money o the joints.
I do have to ask what is the KISS principle?

Can vouch for Grillstock in Bristol. Have to get the whole tray if you go to Grillstock just to try a bit of everything. They also do a festival in the summer. Think it is actually this weekend where they have a few BBQ experts but this is more BBQ than smoking. A few of my other favourites in...
Hi All,
