    1st attempt at ABTs

    sorry I haven’t got back on this. I did roll out the bacon. Here are a couple of pictures to prove this happened. They were delicious by the way. Ugly but delicious. .

    1st attempt at ABTs

    That was my first thought but considering how long it took to wrap the one’s I made it’s not going to happen. I might just take it in a bowl and if they turn out good I can make more for later in the day.

    1st attempt at ABTs

    A friend is having some folks over tomorrow to smoke some meat, drink beer, and sit around a fire. I decided to try some ABTs. My filling is hot Italian sausage, cream cheese onion and sharp cheddar. Wrapping with bacon dang near drove me crazy. Slipperyest things I ever handled. They look ugly...

    Costco brisket shocker

    I made a Costco run today. I wasn’t interested in buying a brisket since I have a couple in the freezer but just checking out the meat isle. Briskets were $8.59 a pound!!! Holy cow. The last one I bought was $2.49. Guess I will smoke what I have in the freezer and then be done with beef other...

    Dyno Glo wide body propane smoker

    Yea. Mine says chips only. Doesn’t make sense. Chips flare up and burn really hot. Chunks just smolder. I use chunks and don’t have any problems.

    Dyno Glo wide body propane smoker

    That’s what I have. I just split a chunk until the lid will close. Lasts way longer than chips.

    Dyno Glo wide body propane smoker

    I don’t have that smoker but do have a propane smoker. I preheat to my smoking temp, usually 240. What type of container does your smoker have for chips? Mine has a drawer. I use chunks instead of chips. Sometimes I have to split the chunk to get it to fit, but it lasts longer than chips. Good luck.

    What Beer Did You Drink in High School?

    PBR. The whole bunch of us drank PBR. The Greek guy that ran the deli and store down the street called us the PR gang. The name stuck for years.

    Covid is Real (Prayers needed)

    Bear, So sorry to hear of your families loss. Prayers will now be for the family as Jim doesn't need them now. He is enjoying being in the presence of almighty God and those that have gone before. God bless your family.

    Need some help about safety

    Here is the quick version of what happened. I am new to sous vide, first cook. I put on two chuck roasts yesterday at 2:00 pm. I am using a very large aluminum pot (turkey fryer) since that was all I had. Temp was still dead on at 131 at midnight when I went to bed, so already 10 hours. Got up...

    Thanks Bear, I know moving to the oven is ok but what about 300 degrees?

    3:30 Saturday morning

    I don't get up before 8 unless I have something special to do, like getting a brisket on. This cook is giving me fits. I always go by my inkbird for both pit temp and meat temp even though the built in thermometer checks within 5 degrees in boiling water, just very slow to react so I don't pay...
