Hello to all.
I am "Grumpy Old Guy" from windy Wyoming with a new LandMann vertical propane smoker. It's the cheapest one they make but it works pretty good. My 1st smoke with this unit was chicken thighs. They came out great.
I also did bacon, which is the best bacon I ever ate.
Here's what I did:
Apple sawdust (cold smoke) and Cherry Chips for hot smoke.

I got all my info on this website. Special thanks to Bearcarver.

I'm only Grumpy when the wind blows. Trouble is, the wind always blows in Wyoming!!

Here's what I did:
Apple sawdust (cold smoke) and Cherry Chips for hot smoke.
- I brined a 6# Pork Belly with TenderQuick, Salt, and Brown Sugar for 8 days @ 38 Deg F.
- Then rinsed, soaked, rinsed and let dry in refrigerator overnight, (like Bearcarver),
- Then I peppered it and cold smoked it for 6 hours @ 90F with a ProQ Cold Smoke Generator
- Then brought the internal temp to 135F for 2 more hours @ 225F hot smoke.
- The brine was 1/2 Cup Tenderquick, 1/2 Cup Kosher Salt, 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar, 1 Gallon Water
