Japs seem to come with different heat zones. But, my experience so far has been that if I remove the seeds and veins, my ABT does not have heat. Just the delicious flavor of jalapeno..Have I been lucky??? I think it's my attention to removing the hot stuff.
Personally I think mesquite is to strong, but, if you only smoke for a short time.....it may be a perfect flavor. I smoke mine with hickory and I am down to 1-1/2 hr smoke because it is to strong at longer times.
5 pounder??? That would be a nice fight.
Only thing I would do different would be to leave the fish in one piece, head and all.......so I could savor every last morsel of that tasty trout. But then, I don't care for the dried out parts of smoked fish.
Your smoke looks good and your brine looks...
Another test you can do is the "ice water" test. Grind up a batch of ice into a slush, let it set for just a couple of minutes to really freeze the tad of water........then insert probe.
That way you have a high and low.
Aaaaah!!!! It kinda sounds to me like there are several out here that have to shorten our slabs. Hey......these short bacon slices fit perfect on BLT's.........but maybe a little short for fully wrapping ABT's.........and I get more slices with my breakfast eggs.
Thanks,
Gary
Just curious on your method of slicing and maybe even size of the slab. I have a $300.00 cabela's slicer and it will only slice a slab maybe 8". So, I have been cutting my belly into pieces that will fit my slicer. Is that possibly what you guys with the smaller slicers do???
Thanks,

I am going to make my 1st batch of susage from Rytek Kutas book....and it calls for 2 cups of soy protein concentrate or non fat dry milk..........plus 2 cups of ice water.for a 10# mix.
Now........is that 2 cups of soy protein con or non fat dry milk wet or dry measure??? If wet, that seems to...
Well..........ok..........I can't complain to much then. My price was a little higher than most.......but I guess I just paid $5.00 more for 10# of what will be a darn good product (bacon).
Thanks..........Gary
Sorry!!!! Not in my back yard!!!! I'll leave those portions for dog food and fertilizer. There are to many other choice meats on a beef.
But then........this is only my opinion.
If they are stainless steel...........give them a good cleaning by hand..........spray pam on them the next time you are going to smoke...........then afterwards put them in your dishwasher. I have a MES 40 and my grates come out super clean.
