    the perfect prime rib

    I did a 7-rib 12lb prime rib for a friendâ€8482s engagement party yesterday. I smoked with oak and a little cherry and maple for 4½ hours at 225deg. The roast was at 145deg and perfect. :P The only problem was to many people, not enough roast, I was glad I did the carving so I could nibble...

    I’m so ashamed

    I did a brisket last night. I trimmed the cap, rubbed it and sit it aside to rest. About an hour latter I went out to check the smoker and it was SNOWING! I came back into the kitchen looked at the still resting brisket sitting there all happy with its rub on. (Iâ€8482m so ashamed) :oops...

    Pork Butt in a DARK BROWN ALE brine

    I did rub the butt with very little (I mean VERY little) Cajun blend :twisted: The Deschtes Brewery (Bend, Oregon) 2005 Winter Ale is VERY full bodied, nutty, dark and hoppy brew.

    Pork Butt in a DARK BROWN ALE brine

    I brined 20# of pork but an a dark brown ale for about 12 hours then smoked it. The pork was trimed and cut into 1 inch thick stripes then brined and smoked for about 6 hours. Talk about melting in your mouth.

    east cheese

    I have rapped some sharp cheddar in CHEESE cloth and hung it over the flue pipe of my smoker. Makes a fine sweet smoked cheese with cherry wood. I have thought about adding a small smoke box to the chimney but have not had time.

    Hey Kids...What do you think of the Brinkman Pitmaster Delux

    I love both of my Brinkmann Smoke-N-Pit's from Wal-Mart. I got one and 2 weeks latter got one more. If youâ€8482re going to stay up all night tending the fire, make the time spent worthwhile. Did 20# of brisket, 15# of pork loin and some chicken Friday night.
