    Corned Beef Sous Vide time and temp?

    So how did your corned beef turn out? How did you cook it?

    Anova Sous Vide cooler

    Have had this set up for 4 years now. Just 1 hole at the end helps accommodate more big roasts at the same time. Place a SS cooling rack on the bottom for better circulation. Have cooked as many as 4 rib roasts at once on multiple occasions with excellent results.

    Sous Vide newbie with questions???

    I assume that you have done the cook by now. How did it go? I did see a caution to be sure to use a trivet. Some counters cannot tolerate higher temperatures for prolonged periods.

    My original bradley

    Have never used mustard. It can be expensive anyway if you're doing a lot of smoking. I've used olive oil or avocado oil for many years with good results.

    Salmon seems mushy after hot smoke

    Not snobbish at all. Living inland, I only buy the flash frozen fish. It is almost as good as same day fresh. My favorite fish is Sable fish.

    Thoughts on new Bradley 4 rack original smoker

    I have found that by heating a fire brick in the oven (max oven temp) prior to the smoke and then placing it next to the water dish also helps. Also, I do not attempt to finish the cook in the smoker when temps are so low. I simply smoke for about 4 hours and then finish in the oven with better...

    Any Bradley owners out there?

    I had the same issue you are having. I pretty much solved the problem by wrapping a heavy solid fire brick in foil and heating it in an oven @ 450 degrees. prior to the cook. Then I place it next to the water bowl. If it is really cold out put another one on a rack and reduce the amount of meat...

    Smoke scrubber

    Your fireplace idea looks pretty good. I saw a good solution on the Bradley forum. It was in a guys garage so he could smoke in the winter extreme temperatures.  He had a kitchen range hood set over the smoker and had made a stack from 4"-6" PVC with some slots cut at the bottom to aid in the...

    Bradley Smoker new to forum

    Hello. I am new to this forum, but I have had a 4 rack Bradley for 7 years and have smoked everything imaginable in it.  I had the same problem you are having. I have pretty much solved it by wrapping an old solid, heavy brick in heavy foil. Prior to a smoke, I put it in a 400-450 oven. I then...
