    Winter smoking blues

    I just moved back to WI after being on the CA coast for the past 20 years, and I haven't slowed down how much I smoke at all - but - (of course there's a but) - im just running the ol cheater pellet smoker 90% of the time right now.

    Favorite wing seasoning / dust?

    My personal favorite is mixing a combo of Garlic Salt and Kosmos Q Ghost Pepper Wing dust.

    1st Brisket.... this should be interesting

    I don't know that id rub it the night before, vs just trimming it and rubbing it 30 minutes before you throw it on. If your heat is coming up from below, put the fat cap facing down. ive never done or heard of the marinade option. Ive been injecting with this stuff lately, which I really like...

    Pork Belly Burnt Ends are so good it's stupid

    Sorry for the delay in responding. For the first round of smoking I did apply a rub to them first. This one you can probably wing with whatever you like to use for pork rubs, as they are going to get a second dosing of seasoning later anyway once you load them in the pan with the good stuff...

    Pork Belly Burnt Ends are so good it's stupid

    I know they aren't burnt ends, but damn they are really good alternatives that are cheaper and easier to create in quantities than actual brisket BE's. I went two hours in the smoke at 275*, then in a pan with butter/brown sugar/honey for two hours. Finally they were drained and sauced with...

    hot and fast brisket?

    in my somewhat relaxed state currently, I read that as 'hot and fast breakfast' so I came here looking for something I could throw in the smoker in the AM and end up with some hot and fast breakfast. I guess i'll have to make up my own. maybe a casserole thrown onto the smoker for a few hours?

    Smoked Chuck Roll - first try

    Im sure every cut is a little different. See how it feels. I know this is an old post but our local Cash and Carry has Chuck Roll's on sale for $2.98 a pound so I was considering doing one. It says they average about 25 pounds though, so I want to be sure I know what im getting myself into...

    Question about my new Camp Chef SG pellet smoker

    Upon initial fireup of the Camp Chef I have seen smoke rolling out of seemingly EVERYWHERE and that kinda freaked me out but after that big initial smoke ive never seen it persist so I just move forward. My door was a little wonky and I had to bend that to sit better, but otherwise it's been...

    storing my smokers

    What space do you have available to you? Do you need to just store them out of sight when not in use, but will pull them out to smoke on? Or are you thinking a covered area to keep them under 24/7 where you would also be doing the smoking? I haven't built anything yet, but those are the first...

    Ribs! Oink Chicka Oink Oink

    Nice job, I love the color on them when finished! Did you baste in your red sauce before pulling them?

    Hello from NorCal

    Hello from Northern California. (about 6 hours north of San Francisco, where the redwoods grow) I have only just recently gotten into smoking meats myself. It started just over a year ago with a little electric smoker, that I still love but has been relegated to just doing fish now. Last...
