    Meat always bitter out of my uds

    You didn't mention what type of wood that you are using. Oak and Hickory can be bitter when used in excess. Apple, Cherry and Pecan produce much milder and sweeter flavors.

    Burnt ends

    I have done it with great results. Let them warm up to room temp, Sauce them and into the oven.

    Eye of round Pastrami, mucho q-view!!

    I have done 10 or more of Al's Pastrami's and they are always a big hit. I started using a 50/50 mix of hickory and cherry and most like it better than straight hickory.

    Galvanized steel in a smoker?

    Aluminum flashing was my original plan but I was having trouble finding some that wasn't painted. That's why I looked to the galvanized material. Problem has been solved since I found unpainted aluminum flashing at Homer Depot.

    Galvanized steel in a smoker?

    Thanks for the input. I was looking for something a little more permanent than foil. Galvanized is cheaper and easier to find than aluminum but better safe than sorry so I will skip he galvanized steel.

    Would it be safe to use galvanized steel in a smoker? I have the 5 x 8 amnps and need to make a cover to keep drippings from putting it out. You thoughts?

    Smokier pulled pork

    I have not tried it but no doubt it would add smoke flavor to the meat. My only concern is that it would tend to dry out the meat.

    Ultimate smash burger tool for griddle ! ! !

    Ever been to a Steak N Shake? They use a spatula pressed down with a heavy duty 2 pronged fork to smash the burgers and a wooden plank to hold the buns down on the griddle.

    Pastrami serving help

    Thanks for the input. Slicing at the party is not an option. I want to use my slicer so that I can get nice uniform slices about 1/4" thick. Way too much work to drag the slicer to the party and besides it is an outdoor party so I can't depend on electricity being available. Same problem for...
