    Have you gone professional?

    A good friend of mine is in the restraunt biz and it takes a tremendous amount of dedication. I have heard him say almost everything that has been mentioned above. Personally I think the way to get into this is enjoy your hobby at home and perfect a rub and or sauce and market it.... Similar to...

    Char-Griller offset smoker

    Hey thanks to everyone from the input so far.... Feel free to offer more if you have any. Now that I know it's not a piece of junk I get the feeling that I may wanna look around at the stores like Lowes, Home Depot, and Mennards in the near future so I can see one for myself up close and see if...

    Char-Griller offset smoker

    I have been considering an offset smoker... Something that I can use real wood in. Not being a financially well endowed person, I have ruled out spending $500-$600 for a brinkmann offset. All that being said I came across these Char-Griller setups at Lowes.com and it got me kind of interested...

    Beef Ribs

    Beekeeper I'll have to look into the hangers I'd like to try something different than the plain old S hooks that I've been using... If you liked the taste of the ribs your almost there. Most times when I do beef ribs and they've smoked for 3-4 hours I pull them and stack them up in pairs and...

    Beef Ribs

    Those ribs look pretty good to me!!! I've never tried to let them sit in salt/rub for that long... Are you attributing the lack of tenderness to the long cure time?? I've not had real good luck with hanging ribs like you did in the photo they always get too tender and want to fall off the...

    Smoking some cheese in the GOSM today

    To answer Mork's question... I used hickory with just a little bit of mesquite thrown in with it. One thing I've noticed about smoking cheese, is that it mellows a little after a few days, so I thought the mesquite might help with that. I have it all cubed and setting in zip lock bags hidden...

    Smoking some cheese in the GOSM today

    Well, it's cold enough here that I started smoking some cheese today. If it's too warm out, I can't keep the temps down. I started out with about 2 Lbs of pepperjack and 2Lbs of Colby/Jack marble. I usually just cube it and serve them as snacks before/after Christmas dinner, so I cut it into...
