A Few things on the smoker, with Q view

abelman · Feb 4, 2008

I did a few things on the smoker for the game yesterday. First, I did some Mojo Chicken Breasts as well as some Jerk Chicken breasts which have a lot of heat.

Since I was firing up the smoker, I decided to try my first Fatty. I used hot Italian sausage, cheddar cheese, a diced jalapeno with seeds, garlic powder, onion powder and Jeff's Rub on the outside. I also threw on an onion as I love smoked onions.

After all was said and done, here's the finished product:

Some of the chicken got a little too done as it hung over the pan a bit and got some direct heat but no major problems. As for the pan, I used sand which is great in colder temps and very easy to keep 225 going.

Looks darn good there Abelman. Bet that fattie was pretty spicy!~! Do you have a jerk sauce reciepe or did you use a bottled verson? If you do would you mind sharing it? Thanks Blake

I don't use the bottle stuff. I make my own. Here's the recipe and it's more of a paste:

2 Scotch bonnets/habs. I use 3 habs in mine with seeds
4 scallions, white and light green parts only roughly chopped
1/4 cup of vegitable oil
1 tbls Red Wine Vinegar
1 tbls finely chopped fresh Thyme
1 tbls soy sauce (here I actually use Lizano Salsa)
1 tbls brown sugar
1 teas kosher salt
1/2 teas fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teas allspice
1/4 teas nutmeg
1/4 teas ground cinnamon
1/8 teas ground cloves

Put it all into a food processor, mix it for a minute or so and you'll have more of a paste than a liquid. I marinate for 5-6 hours for what it's worth.

Let me know how you like it if you decide to try it.

When you mentioned that you used SAND, were you talking about using it instead of water in the water pan ???

abelman · Feb 4, 2008

Yes, it works great!!

Flash was the one who clued me into that last year.

P.S. Where in the desert are you? I used to live in Yucca Valley for a time and it could get pretty cold and icey at times. Plus, plenty of free sand around, LOL.
