 I am looking for real inspiration to try smoking something that isn't pig. I am also looking for some inspiration to use the smoker to partially cook something that I would be able to cook into a larger dish. 

  Lets see what we can come up with!

Brisket! Great as a main dish right off the cooker and then sandwiches later. Those burnt ends are another added bonus.

Brisket is on the short list for sure! I tried one a year ago in a store bought smoker and it ended up dry. Even after I injected it. 

 I am thinking about smoking some rabbits and then cooking them in a gravy for a blackpot festival we have here.  

 I have some prime ribs in the freezer now.

Steaks!  I absolutely love a reverse seared steak and that starts out with some nice thick beef steaks in the smoker!

They make me happy, happy, happy!

I did this recently and it came out very good.
Smoked a couple of chuckies for 5 hours then put them in the crock pot with some beef broth, and onion, taters and carrots for some smokey pot roast

Wife loooves my turkey breast. rub down fill cavity with onoins, celery garlic, and whatever you want. Never do potatoes. They will rot. Did that years ago and just ruined it all. Brisket is a good one too. Just don't do them much. Not the best for ya.

I gotta give nods to the oysters as well............oh man, oh man. With fresh mozzarella and smoked bacon bits on them.

 For something you can turn into a bigger meal, I like the chuckies as well. Can be used for shedded BBQ Beef, cut up for a great addition to your chili (hate ground beef chili) or as a great addition to beef stew.

 I've never done whole rabbits, but I have a cousin that processes rabbit into sausage and I've smoked that....mighty fine eating.

Since the smoking thing is one part of cooking that I am fairly new to, I can't help but to want to smoke a turkey for a few hours then fry it. Stuff like that tends to get me in trouble. But I'm cajun. I like to mess with food and if it taste a little weird.....put in a gravy.

 By the way...I'm sure to try every single thing you guys put on here. I get a ton of visitors and am always cooking.
