    Safe time for holding turkey

    Just to say thanks for the suggestions and give a little report.  After 4 hours of driving the turkeys were still showing a temp of 143.  As suggested, My nice crisp skin had turned to rubbery plastic but they stayed in the safe zone.  I thought they were a little dry but no one other than me...

    Safe time for holding turkey

    Thanks for the quick replies.  Preheating the cooler is a great idea!  Thanks for the suggestion..  I have a 110 power converter for the truck and thought about putting a heating pad inside the cooler to help keep the temps up. Great information.  Happy Thanksgiving to all!! Ken

    Safe time for holding turkey

    I need a little help from the group.  Given the years of experience on the board I figure someone has faced a similar problem.  I have 2 turkeys to smoke for Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow afternoon. The problem is that dinner is at my in-laws and they are 4 hours from my house.  My plan is to...

    What is this "Fatty" you speak of? Q-view

    Looks great!   Everytime I see one posted I want to try one on the smoker.  I've made one in the oven.  You may have pushed me over the edge with yours.  It looks so good. Ken.

    4-1-1 Spares (Q-View)

    The taste test has to come from somewhere.  In my 52 years, I do not believe I have ever seen a complete ham on a table.  There has to be a pinch, pull or nibble from somewhere.  LOL. Ken

    4-1-1 Spares (Q-View)

    Since I changed from a vertical smoker to a horizontal smoker I have been struggling to get ribs just right for my taste.  2-2-1 and 3-2-1 seem to turn out too mushy for my taste.  I'm sure it's due to the temps the smokers ran.  I went back to no foil but they were a little tough..  Right in...

    They seem to be pretty forgiving.  I don't think I have ever screwed one up.  (with fingers crossed)  Yes, with just me and the wife, there are multiple meals on one of these.  When there were 4 kids at home they went pretty dang fast. Cheers, Ken

    smoked, uncooked ham smoking.

    Smoked one of those already smoked but uncooked hams from the grocery store today.   Took a little over 7 hours for a 7.8 lb. ham with the smoker temp @ around 250 for most of the time.  Pulled with a IT of 160.  Glazed with maple syrup and Turbinado sugar a couple of times during the smoke. ...
