    Corned Beef/Pastami temp

    Corned beef on sale at groc store, $1.99/#. I have 5 flats from 3-5#'s. Last one I took to 190 internal, and it was great! I've read to only take them to 160-165 and I've read to take them to normal brisket temp, when the thermom goes in like butter. A bit of a range I'd say. It will be...

    Any Tips to Maximize Penetration?

    Psycho, I know just what you mean; thick cut of meat and not enough smoke taste in the middle. (btw, add smoke to your thread title, you leave yourself WIDE open for some "jab" ) When I make pork butt for pulled pork I smoke the meat the same as usual, rest, pull and put back into pan w/juices...

    BAD "Q".. let this be a lesson to you!!

    Corned Beef Experiment W/Q-View

    Kinda odd, but yesterday I was in the mood to try something new and went to g.store to get a corned beef brisket. Before going I checked other q sites and a few people where doing them also. Mine was a flat cut about 5#'s, it was cured w/a packet of spices w/it. All I did was pull it out...

    evil shortcut

    This is called SMF for a reason. I don't understand your post Fred?! Isn't your oven like ours....the type that when you turn it on it smokes? The way I see this forum is that it's "based" around smok'n, but has never been limited to just that. Appreciate the cold, it makes spring and...

    Selling my RIG, unfortunately...

    We are here to help when you need it, Tex. Least of your worries is the smoker. I'll chip in some money if anyone wants to go 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 on a nice smoker(although it isn't a pellet smoker ). I'd use it once a yr, basically to drive it down main street! Tex, pm, email or call me...

    With grain Vs. across

    W/grain or w/out grain, you'll have jerky. My main issue is the "chew". Quick(ie cross cut) or long(w/grain). I like a long chew..........lasts longer in the tractor.

    What happened to cooking with wood?

    I'm sorry, this pic shows the neighbor burning some wood..........along w/oil or tires as it seams. People out here do still use trees to "cook". Go figure. BTW, he's 3.5miles away.

    What happened to cooking with wood?

    Smoke'n w/ wood? I do, but it is in pellet form. Wood out here is hard to find. This is a good example. Count your blessings that you can cut wood. All I want is a f'n tree!!!
