    Smoaked Beets-- copycat recie?

    Michael Symon recently opened a BBQ restaurant in Downtown Cleveland, OH. One of the sides is "smoked beets with horseradish". I thought it was excellent. Does anyone have a copycat recipe by chance. It is not like his "horseradish beet salad", which is posted on the internet. My attempt was...

    Boston Butt with a little twist

    After reading Jeff's "smoking ribs, Individually technique", I decided to try a bit of the same logic with a Boston Butt. I took the Butt and split it down the middle. [Due to the bone it was about 6 lbs/5 lbs] I layed the two halves in my smoker, set it at 225 [Mes 30] and smoked it 1.25 hours...

    How I light my AMNPS w/ video link

    Using MES 30 My AMPS went out yesterday. I had followed the ideas in the forum but it went out in about 20-25 minutes.  I had the old wood adding gizmo half out and upside down. So remembering how coal fires burn underground for years, I lit the end again [propane torch] then went to the...

    MES Temperature Study

    Bear I think you're telling me to use the Maverick to set/control  the smoker temperature, not just check the meat, correct? As far as I can see, the meat probe was telling me the correct temperature.

    MES Temperature Study

    Sunday as I finished some Baby Backs where I was not using the meat probe I noticed the probe temperature was a lot lower than the smoker temperature. Today I did some tests. 1-- Initially, the smoker was setting outside in the TX sun. The Smoker Temp was 108 and the probe temp was 99. If ever...

    Chicken Thighs (MES 40 Smoked)

    My local grocery store[ HEB] sells throw away racks in the BBQ section]  that are jut a bit too big so I bend one edge up about 2" and they work fine. Of course I reuse, so for 98 cents, I have a fix. They are diamond shaped "expanded metal" made of aluminum. Very lightweight, can use for...

    Smoke adsorbing temp - Does it exist/what is it?

    I am just getting ready to smoke another brisket. Thought I'd browse a bit and noticed a comment from Jeff on FAQ. He  stated " smoke a brisked until it reaches an internal temp of 140 at that temp it stops adsorbing smoke". Yet in his recipes etc, he says " smoke for about 3 hours or until the...

    Rice Crispies & snack mix

    I have used Rice Crispies for coating oven baked chicken and liked it. Your idea of smoked Rice Crispies sounds great. But I went from Rice Crispies to Rice Checks a few years ago as the crushed grain bits are a bit crispier. I'd think the "open weave" of the Rice Checks would be receptive to...
