I don't spend as much time here as I used to, but I always try to be honest. That being said, I also try and be tactful. I agree with Cal in that giving false praise hinders the learning process. But harsh criticism shuts down the desire to learn. There is a fine line between tough love and...
Looks delicious Al!! Haven't made any in a long time. I think the last time I made rolls I used smoked lox, cream cheese, cucumber and capers. Kinda like a lox bagel in roll form.
Different brands and types are good for different things. I like all natural briquettes (stubbs or trader joe's) for most of what I do. Mostly that's smoking between 250° and 325°. I like lump for grilling. I'll buy Kingsford occasionally as lots of times that's all they have locally, but I've...
Welcome aboard! What you have there is a small rib roast. I'd do a reverse sear. Smoke at fairly low temp, say 225°-250° to about 10-15 degrees below your desired doneness. Then rest until the temp drops below the original temp. As in, you pull it at 125°, it coasts to 135°, then it drops back...
That looks like it would make short work of it!! They have oyster shucking contests around here, I wonder if you could get away with that?....
Seriously though, that's a great idea. I have a scar on my left hand from too many beverages and paying too much attention to the cute brunette standing...
Looks great from here Al! I wonder why it overcooked? That Vortex must really pump out some heat. One thing I noticed when reverse searing steaks, I have no experience with sous vide, was that if I didn't rest them between the smoker and the sear, I'd get more of a bullseye effect. Also, this...
Hope you had a fantastic Christmas Disco!! Thanks, as always, for your thoughtfully presented recipes and cheerful demeanor here on SMF!! Here's to a safe and prosperous 2017 and looking forward to more "Od Fat Guy" videos!!
I have the little PartyQ by Guru for use on my mini. I live in an apartment so do all my smoking elsewhere, park, beach etc.. so not needing an AC plug was paramount for me. I will say it's been a trooper. Well made and locks on temperature quickly and flawlessly. Haven't had occasion to rate...
Funny Case, I just read where you got the tumblers and was gonna send you a pm to let you know they're great for blender sauces. You're quick!! Hope you and yours had a great Holiday.
Since we all seem to make a very special roast for the Holidays, I think it deserves a special sauce. Béarnaise is one of my all time favorites, but like most things, I was always afraid to try it because I figured it was better left to the "experts". Then I looked up a couple recipes and...
