    Question on adding Bourbon flavor to smoked bacon

    I use Pop's curing brine for wet curing my pork belly (for 9 days) before smoking. I would like to try to introduce bourbon into the overall process for the added flavor. So I have a few questions: Which is the best approach: Adding bourbon to the brine during curing, or adding after curing...

    Horizon offset smoker, should I go for it?

    Thank you to everyone for your responses, ideas, and suggestions. I went ahead and did it. I ordered the 24" RD Special Marshal directly from Horizon. Now I wait for it to be built.

    Horizon offset smoker, should I go for it?

    Thanks Ray. I did check the BPS near me (San Jose). They actually don’t have them physically in inventory. So it’s basically ordered by BPS and still shipped from Horizon in OK. Also BPS sells the 24” Marshal, but not the 24” RD Special Marshal. I’m looking for all the extras on the RD.

    Horizon offset smoker, should I go for it?

    I have my eye on the Horizon 24” RD Special Marshal smoker. I’m about to pull the trigger and order it. However it’s going to cost $850 to ship it from Oklahoma to my home in Redwood City, CA (just south of San Francisco). It could still fit within my budget, but thought I should at least...

    Baby back ribs Q-View!!!

    Last weekend I smoked some baby back ribs.  And now I'm finally getting around to posting the Q-View.  It was sort of a spare-of-the-moment thing (discussed the day before) and we invited my brother-in-law, sister-in-law and their kids over for dinner.  Not only did the ribs turn out amazing...
