    Final Smoked Salmon with recipe, instructions, and Qview

    Hey John -- smoked some salmon with Alder this weekend and there's no going back!  This was actually the very first time I have ever used any pellets other than the Hickory/Cherry blend I originally got from Amazen when I first got my pellet tray earlier this year.  It was interesting tasting a...

    5th of July Pulled Pork!

    Lol!  Sorry John, didn't mean to get too personal too quick... maybe I should have taken you out to dinner first?

    5th of July Pulled Pork!

    Sorry to resurrect an old post... I was just wondering if anybody ever pulls their meat, then sticks it back in the smoker for a little bit so all the meat can absorb some more smoke?  Or would this dry it out too much?

    Bottom Round Roast

    Here's another observation I've made about freshly smoked meat vs smoked meat out of the fridge....  when the meat comes out of the smoker, even a simple SPOG rub tastes very spicy, almost like there is cayenne pepper on it.  If there really is cayenne or some other spicy agent in the rub, it...

    Butterflied bratwurst?

    So I was smoking a beef roast yesterday and had about 5 Johnsonville brats sitting in the fridge. II've never smoked a brat before, but I thought I would just throw them in there for fun and see what happened. I had my temp set to 200 and I think around 3 hours in I sliced the tip offof one of...

    Bottom Round Roast

    So for starters, I don't know if I'll ever grill another brat. I cut the tip off of one to check for doneness, and it wasn't, so I left them in and stuck the tip I cut offback in there. A bit later when they were done, I think that tip was my favorite piece since it took on the most smoke. I...

    Bottom Round Roast

    Wow... that surprised me... I would have thought nothing would beat belly bacon.  I might just have to try it soon! Anyway, back on topic, I'm all SPOG'd up and ready for tomorrow!  Still not sure where I'll set the temp, I'm guessing I'll shoot for 200 degrees.

    Bottom Round Roast

    Oh I want to make some bacon so badly...  Does BBB taste similar to belly bacon?  Do you prefer one over the other?  Also, does pork belly compare in price to shoulders/butts? Also, for the beef, since people say this tends to be tougher, should I try cooking it very slow... like 180-200? ...

    Bottom Round Roast

    Oh that looks amazing!  I really want to get into curing, but I don't currently have any of the proper supplies.  Maybe you can help me come up with a good first project :)  Do you cure your bacon when you make it?  I would really like to make some smoked pepper bacon... Oh wow, so I'll only...

    Final Smoked Salmon with recipe, instructions, and Qview

    Bear's smoked salmon has completely ruined me for salmon.  I can honestly say that maybe only 2 days have gone by in the past couple of months since I first tried this recipe that I haven't eaten some of it.  My wife included, although I eat more of it than she does.  We were walking through...

    Bottom Round Roast

    Strolling down the grocery store isle yesterday, I saw something that startled me.  Recently I haven't been able to find any cut of beef under $7 a pound.  That's when I saw the sale on bottom round for $3.99 a pound.  Not really knowing much of anything about this cut of meat, I grabbed it...
