    amnps issues

    Hi Thanks for the reply. I am not sure how close the amnps is to the back but I didnt think there was much room front to back sitting on those rails. The amnps is full almost to the top and poured in from the container that they were microwaved in then leveled out smooth across the rows. I...

    amnps issues

    Hi I've had my AMNPS for around a year now. My problem with it is I can not get the pellets to turn the corner. I can get them lit and the first row burns fine but it never makes the bend. If i need more smoke I have to light the other end after it the first one goes out. The other first row...

    Smoking rabbits

    My garden was getting hammered so I did the vegetable=meat conversion. I brined them first then smoked them for a couple hours. Then I pulled the meat off the bones and braised with demiglaze and wild dehydrated mushrooms/shallots. After that i added some heavy cream and reduced. The final...

    Trouble getting AMPS to burn

    I have the MES 30 and the amnps. My problem with the amnps is it never turns the corner. It will burn a complete row then go out. I will light the other side and it burns but doesnt make the bend and the middle row never gets lit. By that time im usually tired of playing with it and leave it go.

    Wild Turkey - How would you smoke it????

    It has been a while and was one of my very first smokes on an old cheap brinkman charcoal smoker. I would brine it with salt and either brown sugar or maple syrup for a day or two. Mine was skinless so I wraped it with bacon and smoked it until it was done. maybe a little under cooked. If I...

    peanut allergys "need some help"

    Realistically even if you went to all of the trouble to make sure that there was no peanut oil and no cross contamination I dont think that he would eat the food.There is just too much risk involved to justify it.My daughter has a peanut alergy and people tell us all the time there is no nuts...

    Indoor Smoking Options

    I have one of the cameron stovetop smokers. It is a hot smoker for the most part. Even on the lowest setting that my gas stove has it cooks fast. The thing has its place but I dont think that bacon is its place. If you have a patio or something I would do the cardboard box/amnps smoker at night...

    first attempt at sausage making

    I have the same piece of #$%^ stuffer. I find it works a little better if your mixture has some extra moisture. I usually add some water or beer depending what im making. The second thing I do is only fill it up one half to three quarters full. That seems to give me a little more leverage. And...

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    I recently purchased an ingredient that I have never seen before. I believe it will give me some of the umami that diggindog was talking about. It is dried powdered porchini mushrooms. I will let you know what I find out.

    Ode to a foot pot.

    My item is the turkey deep fryer, but I have never deep fried a turkey. I use the burner for everything imagineable. I have of course deep fried with it (just not a turkey). It makes my beer. It turns maple sap into the nectar of the gods maple syrup. It boils pasta in huge quantities. It can...
