    Guinness Beef Stew

    Absolutely right! It's a must for some of our cold fall camping trips every year...also kinda fun to have a stew cooking over an open flame while sucking back a few beers! ;) It is! One of those recipes I will be passing down to my kids!

    Guinness Beef Stew

    LOL Thanks buddy! My wife's parents are Irish and my mother-in-law can't believe that her Canadian son-in-law makes the best Irish stew she's ever had! Can't get a better compliment than that! ;)

    Problem slicing

    Happened to meat over the weekend when slicing my MTL Smoked meat...very frustrating. I chalked it up to me cheaping out and going for the $100 slicer. Going to follow this thread for possible tips!

    Great, no issues with rust? Do you regularly clear the snow off of it?

    Northern Stick Burner Users

    Hey guys, I've been dreaming of purchasing either a Lang or Yoder stick burner. I currently own a Big Green Egg, Kamado Joe, and a WSM and all of these can stand the winter seasons outside (with their covers). I don't have a garage so the new additional would have to remain outside. Can anyone...

    First Pork Butt

    Very curious that it didn't fall apart like you were expecting. Your process was quite sound and almost identical except for a few things...I don't spritz (I used to but did not find much taste difference for the effort), I don't inject, I smoke a lower temp (235), and I let it rest for an hour...

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    Thanks! Worst part was steaming...but by my next run I should have a better system! Very kind! Thank you!

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    Thanks Warren. Would SV just to get it properly warmed up...could have warmed it up in a pot of boiling water too. For myself, our SV has been used mostly to warms my smoked meats up properly rather than using it as a cooker.

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    LOL, Thanks! Cheers bud, thanks for the like! I hope it was worth it! Aside from sampling I didn't get a full sandwich yet. But my wife loved it...the spices give it a perfect kick. Thanks for the like!

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    To be honest, after all that I didn't even make myself a sandwich! I did sample as I was slicing...but was too tired to make it a meal. Will pick up some nice rye and mustard over the weekend and do it right! ;) Thanks Bud, appreciate it! Thanks! :)

    Grilled Turkey Tenderloins

    Beautiful! Nicely done. Must admit I tend to lose control grilling poultry...which is why I usually prefer smoking or sous vide (with a quick sear). Will have to keep trying to get your kind of results! Cheers

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    Yup that was my initial thought too! Was even thinking about doing 3 or 4 briskets...but my wife would have had issues with me taking up the entire fridge for 2 weeks! So will either have to do one at a time, or buy another fridge and find some way of steaming in bulk. Cheers!

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    Traditionalists would use charcoal only without adding any wood chunks...to avoid an overpowering smoke flavour. In my case I enjoy the smokey flavour and thus added some maple and apple. Turned out great, so was not dissapointed at all with my decision!

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    Thanks. Hoping that when I sous vide from frozen that I get a nice moist texture....will see!

    Montreal Smoked Meat

    After two weeks of, what I consider a fairly intense process, I finally packaged my MTL smoked meat! It was long, but very tasty! Shout out to @disco for the help of his website which I consulted on a few occasions! Here's what I did: 1) Trimmed the brisket (in my case two full packers)...
Great deal on LEM Grinders!
