    1st smoke of the year.... Man am I late!

    Cold rainy spring and other things kept me from the smoker this year, but I finally got the first smoke of the year under my belt. One rack of ribs, and three chuck eyes.  I took the chuck to about 180* and will freeze for future dinners.  Stopping just short of "done" will let me roast them in...

    1st smoke of the year - 06-14-2016. Yeah, I'm late.

    Cold rainy spring and other things kept me from the smoker this year, but I finally got the first smoke of the year under my belt. One thing I noticed was the top rack vs bottom grates ran between 40* & 50* hotter on top rack without any meat in smoker.  When I added the meat, and the temp...

    Cliff is the guy to ask about wood burning in a CG.  He does it all the time.  I haven't mastered it yet, so I use lump with wood chunks close enough to make smoke.

    Welcome to the CG forum Smoking Pit.  Glad to have you with us. I see you have gone down the rabbit hole concerning mods right out of the box. I did too, before I ever fired it up.  LOL) But I'm sorry to say that 95% of the mods just don't work well.   We own a COS, and we have to live with...

    smoked meat in freezer

    Straighten out your household?  LOL I used to tell my kids they always had two choices for dinner.  Either whatever I was cooking, or nothing.  They usually ate dinner. <grin>

    TIP for shaved dried beef, or SOS

    I usually slice my dried beef for SOS on my slicer.  But I only had about a half lb left in freezer, and didn't want to have to deal cleaning the slicers for so little meat. Now I know my mandolin slicer says not to use for slicing meat, but what the heck...I'll try it. Worked better than the...

    Sorry about the knee slapper. Sewing in that foil cardboard should help. Hope you get feeling better.  I shouldn't have joked about your back.  What goes around comes around, right?  Well my back needs a trip to the bone cracker soon now too.

    mechanically tenderized meat? 140* in 4 hrs?

    Does the 140* in 4 hour rule apply to mechanically tenderized meat?  1. Store, or processing plant, mechanically tenderized meats? 2. Home mechanically tenderized meats using a Jaccard? 3. Is any meat mechanically tenderized safe for smoking longer before reaching 140* in under 4 hours...

    Did you check IT before putting into fridge?  If still under 40* or close to it, I would use them.

    Arm cut chuck roast, (Boneless English cut)

    ell I promised Q-view and report back.  Here it is. I was very surprised that it wasn't tough.  It was as tender and every bit as good as a sirloin cooked London Broil method. I separated the two muscles from one roast to see if one was better suited or not.  They came out equally tender and...

    Yeah, they are pretty thin compared to more expensive ones.  Thicker is better, but not everyone can afford those, so we struggle trying to make these work like those thicker, more solid ones..  We don't quite get there, but we have fun trying, and for the back yard, they work,  Modded or not...
