    Smoked Turkey, Just Because.

    Thanks guys. I've had good results using the brine here virtualweberbullet.com It was an enhanced bird so I doubled the juice and used the listed portions for the rest of the brine to fully cover the bird. It was in the brine for ~24 hours, and then taken out to rest for ~12 hours. Right...

    Smoked Turkey, Just Because.

    We had an extra turkey left over from the holidays and decided last weekend to cook her up . Apple juice brine then coated the skin with bacon fat before salt & peppering.

    Cold smoking in cold weather.

    I've been cold smoking my dry cured bellies in my WSM using the AMN pellet smoker with great success. Until recently ambient temps have been in the 60s-80s but now they are in the 30s-50s will there be any issues smoking in the 30s and low 40s, and will I have to adjust the length of time I...

    First Bacon. Couple of Questions.

    I cold smoked the bacon with the a-maze-n pellet smoker filled with hickory. I smoked for about 10 hours overnight, and the temp outside temp was somewhere around the low 80s when I out it on and went down into the low 70s by the time it was done in the morning.

    First Bacon. Couple of Questions.

    I gave the bacon the 9.5 hour smoke over night with the hickory pellets, and the AMNPS worked perfectly. Taking the skin off was a little tougher than I was expecting, but I'm happy with the results for my first attempt. I cut a couple pieces off and cooked them up, the flavor was really good...

    Jumping into the Bacon Arena - Now with Q-View

    Good luck on the bacon, I just got my AMNPS this week, and am smoking my first bacon in a day or two. That was a good question about mixing the two formats, I found this thread http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/116185/burning-a-mix-of-dust-with-pellets where they say it didn't work so well...
