    Tips for small brisket

    My advice is try not to let the smaller brisket cool too quick during your rest. I used to stress over the cook and not really take care during the rest period, it was drying my briskets slightly. Now the rest and hold for me is the most important step. Corey

    What’s the craze with smash burgers

    This seems like an older thread but I'll give my 2 cents, I started making smash burgers for a few reasons, they are supper easy after work, come home salt a pound of hamburger, weigh out the burgers, onto the griddle, smash them down, little cheese, then load up the buns with what you want. 15...

    Jalapeno oddities?

    I got 1 corn stalk that came up white, damndest thing I had ever seen, found out it was albino, (im not kidding) just a bit of a freak of nature. Yours isn't white but maybe that happened? Corey

    Ive done some of my best cooking at midnight when im starved and tired. I just can never remember what I did. Good on you for documenting the results. I end up having to do the forensics the next morning, trying to figure out what the heck I did. 🙃 Corey

    2nd round bacon question.

    This is absolutely true. I have to use the heat element in the Bradley to bring the cabinet temp up in the winter. I usually just make 40 lbs in the fall and Im good. The process I have has taken me quite a while to get correct. The hot smoke is a pretty full proof way to get the job done. Corey

    2nd round bacon question.

    Unfortunately, cold smoking involves a bit more equipment, but you introduce smoke to the bacon with no heat. It imparts smoke but doesn't cook it. Look up mailbox mod on this site . Or cold smoke adapter. I use an old Bradley with a cold smoke adapter. Corey

    2nd round bacon question.

    You have obviously been cooking the bacon. Consider cold smoking. I smoke the cured belly for 4 hrs with pretty much any fruit wood. Keep in mind the meat is still not cooked. I cut the slabs into 2.5 lb chucks after smoking . Freeze them. Then slice and fry them normally, to 160f min. . I...

    No smoke ring, zip, nadda Pellet Smoker

    Well, threw some Costco pellets in the smoke tube and put it in the mailbox of my old bradley, lots of white smoke. I can get mostly thin blue smoke out of the more expensive pellets. Im just switching back and wiping my hands on this issue I think.

    No smoke ring, zip, nadda Pellet Smoker

    Thanks for the reply, the thing that's pointing to the pellets is, having changed nothing in my procedure but the pellets, and this is about 20 briskets now, that's why I think its the pellets. The ambient temps during the day were steady also. Im going to nerd out today and burn good pellets...

    No smoke ring, zip, nadda Pellet Smoker

    Anybody want 80lbs of pellets? 😁 . All the other briskets I have done have had excellent smoke taste ,the ring I agree makes no flavor, but I use it like the rings of a tree, tells me how my smoke went, more of a guage. I use the pellet smoker because its a set it and forget it, have too much...

    No smoke ring, zip, nadda Pellet Smoker

    The lack of smoke ring was interesting. Regardless if you think it means anything, im more curious about the complete lack of smoke flavor, temp was 250f, smoke was rolling. Its more of WTF thing. Corey
