    Inaugural Smoke

    Thanks all.  We ate the chicken for dinner last night, then had the pulled pig in sandwiches for lunch.  It really is good.  I don't think I'll be putting Smithfield's out of business any time soon, but I was very happy with how it turned out.  Mrs. badabing wants me to smoke a turkey, so I...

    When is smoked chicken done

    I just posted a thread under smoking meat / general discussion with a bunch of pics.  It is  being held for moderator since I'm new but I'm sure it will pop up there soon.  Again, thank you all so much for the help yesterday.

    Inaugural Smoke

    Yesterday I did my first smoke ever (do you call it a smoke?).  My wife and kids gave me a Master Forge smoker for Christmas and I've been chomping at the bit to fire it up.  I had a recipe and some tips from a friend to start with, and some folks on this forum, SmokinAl, ChefJimmy and others...

    When is smoked chicken done

    Well, if I end up with salmonella I'll post up here, but that chicken tasted fantastic.  I'll put up a thread later with start-to-finish pics, but the chickens looked just like the ones I've seen on this forum.  I pulled them out of the smoker and put them in the oven at 350 for an hour to...

    When is smoked chicken done

    Well, looks like I'm making plenty of rookie mistakes first time out.  The chickens are, of course, on the top rack.  I really hope I haven't screwed up the whole batch.

    Chef Jimmy, Just saw the end of your first response.  Can you tell me what you mean by the low temp being "dangerous?"  I take it you'd recommend I crank the temp up?

    You are correct, I did not probe anything from the beginning and I didn't inject anything -- I used a dry rub on the chicken and pork.  Just checked temp on the pork shoulder, it is 140.  There are two pork butts in there, I checked one and it is 142.

    When is smoked chicken done

    I'm doing my smoker maiden voyage today.  I have some pork butts and shoulders in there, and I threw in a couple of chickens so we could have something for dinner.  They've been smoking 6 hours at 195 degrees.  I stuck one of those probe thermometers into one of the chickens and it said 159...
