After traveling to Texas in 2019 and experiencing wonderful smoked turkey breast (large slices) it made me wonder why I can only find small turkey breasts at the local Krogers and top BBQ places apparently get other boneless birds to smoke. Where does everyone buy their boneless turkey breast to...
Does anyone mind if I resurrect this thread? Hopefully not!
Can I ask where everyone buys their BONELESS turkey breast? Last year I visited multiple grocery stores for boneless turkey breast to smoke. I finally found a Kroger that had some but I was surprised how small the pieces were when I...
I almost bought standing prime rib from Costco today. $11.69/lbs. My wife called to say Meijer had it for $6.49/lbs. Both choice. We grabbed the Meijer PR.
Anyone with experience with Meijer prime rib? Compared with Costco PR?
This is definitely on my list for a future smoke. Looks outstanding. I've been on a huge Cuban binge over the last few years.
How in the world did you tie that sucker up with the pickles/cheese slices/ham? Looks like you'd need 10 hands to keep that puppy together!
Thanks for sharing!
Local cut wood for smoking your favorite BBQ. I cut this wood myself and it has been drying for 2 years. I have too much and need to find a home for this quality wood.
I am in Central and West Michigan.
I am selling these chunks by the bag. See pics.
Oak $10
Maple $15
Apple $15
Cherry $25...
I pulled the ribs at 3 hrs. They turned out B-. I didn't spritz until the very end because we had to leave. I know, bad planning. Life happens.
I couldn't believe the 1 lbs chuck roast turned into a brick. I kept it on for another 30 min and then held it ( like a brisket) for an hour. Not...
I have 1# of beef chuck roast (remaining amount - uncooked- from a recipe yesterday) that I plan on cooking with my pork spareribs today.
I have never smoked pork and beef together. Though I've often thought of doing so.
How much longer will that 1# chuck take compared to the ribs? Should be...
My uncle used the same term a while back for smoked salmon! Squaw candy. How about that?
Smoked some salmon yesterday. Used a simple dry brine and apple wood for smoke. Turned out great.
Maple from a neighbor's yard that fell a week ago. I think it is silver maple, but not sure.
5 wheelbarrow loads of maple. I'll take it. I'll chunk some for my WSM and split the rest for the fireplace
Updating this post re: large black ants...
After dealing with the initial ant issue in my yellow apple wood bags, it seems to have fixed the issue. I have looked through the oak and cherry wood bags, no ants.
I think I'll set up cement blocks and keep all wood bags off of the shed floor.
*...
I just pulled 3 large paper leaf bags out of my shed- filled with apple sticks that I split last fall.
I was going to cut them down to chunks using my table saw. I quickly discovered 100s of large black a ts in 2 of the bags.
I dumped them out and tried spraying:
1- dish soap/water mix
2-...
I was wondering the same thing recently. I saw BBQ pros with nice aprons on Instagram. Some looked fancy Others had personalized logos/names.
I then saw an ad from Dickies for a basic apron with two pockets and adjustable waist and neck straps for $6 - free shipping. I bought it and have used...
