Hi meat lovers I'm Brendan from Adelaide, South Australia. I love curing and smoking meats, and I'm getting into some of the basic charcuterie too.

I'm keen to hear how others do it, and share what I've found so far. My smoker is pretty basic, but has been plenty of fun. Successses include lots of bacon, and a couple of good pastrami.

Thanks!
 
Hey and thanks for the welcome, Submariner and BlueWhisper!

My smoker is linked in my first post, but it's just a little charcoal drum with a couple of grill plates and a water bowl. It's pretty basic but has worked for low and slow smoking so far.

Some of the setups I see on the net are much more involved, but smokers are not a huge priority for people in Australia really. They're becoming a bit more popular, but can't overtake the backyard bbq.

Right now I have some bacon in a brine which I will smoke in a couple of days, and put some chat up on a bacon thread. Like the British we use different cuts of meat for some things, so that comparison will be good, too. I'll add some pics too.

Cheers,

B
