I have a New Braunfels Bandera smoker & I like it a lot, but I'm not feeling real confident in the temperature gauge. I have an extra Taylor thermometer...any ideas on how I can check the internal temperature? I have heard of people taking their digital thermometer and sticking the probe...
I have always brined whole birds for 12 hours...I brine pieces, such as thighs I brine about 4 hours with great success.
The only bad experience I have had with brining was my first ever experience with brine. I brined a bunch of chicken thighs for 12 hours & smoked them. When we ate them...
Thanks for your input...much appreciated. I was planning on smoking around 225, but I will either lower it or I may put it in an area which runs a little cooler in my smoker. I will be putting mustard on it with my rub.
I haven't seen any rings around here, so I will be using a chub.
Hello all...
I am planning on smoking some pork tenderloin Saturday & was also considering doing a bologna. I have done tenderloin quite some time back, but I have never done a bologna. Any tips on the bologna?
Thanks in advance for the best Q advice on the net!!!
Those are good, but the one you are probably referring to is available on the smoking-meat.com website. There is a link on the right side about mid-way down. If you take Jeff's free email smoking course you can also get it there as well.

Brining is the answer. When I first started smoking chickens I did not brine & they turned out "OK". Then I decided to try brining because of the info on this & a few other sites...WOW what a difference!! I will never smoke a bird without brining it...it's that good & makes that much...
What are the pro's & cons of using wood with the bark on or the bark stripped off? I usually use hickory or apple wood, but I have never had any with bark on. Does it even matter??
I would like to smoke a boneless turkey breast...has anyone tried one? I've done chicken pieces, whole chickens, & whole turkeys, but not boneless. What have your experiences been like?
Thanks!!
