    Smoked Mac-n-Cheese, Pre-Boil

    Just made this and added a couple chicken quarters worth of meat that I smoked with jeff's rub over pear wood with habanero peach glaze the other day. Looks and smells fantastic. Thanks for the recipe! Edit. Crap, I misread the flour and did 2.5 cups. Going to have to take it off way early and...

    How to Intensify Flavor in Sauce?

    I use fish sauce. It is the same thing but doesn't affect people who are msg sensitive. A little goes a long way. One bottle will last a heck of a long time. I use it in anything I want to increase flavor in.

    Fattie question

    thin bacon is key if you want crispy. You can nuke the bacon a little bit before you wrap the fatty as well to get a headstart.

    I'm a newbie. I'm looking to buy my first smoker. Here's one I saw on Amazon. What do you think of i

    Expect to have to do some modifications on that smoker the minute you get it. You would need a needle valve to control low temps and the wood box is not real good so most guys get an amazn or other deal for that. You will need a thermometer that is actually accurate and some other stuff. It is a...

    Help with First Roast on WSM

    I do mine medium rare and if someone likes their slice more done it goes back on the grill or a hot cast iron pan for another minute or two. That way everyone is happy. 125, reverse sear rest and serve.

    Coating the inside of a new smoker?

    those units run hot no matter what you do since there is no real way of controlling the airflow. I put a vent in my lid when I had it and that helped a little. A thermal mass in there be it water or sand will help to stabilize temperatures but may not help with keeping temps down. I eventually...

    Coating the inside of a new smoker?

    Just know that the temp way up in the lid is considerably hotter than at food level. That was my first smoker right there. They work fine but take a lot of attention and fiddling. I would start with a short easy cook like chicken to get the hang of it.

    Best "Remote" Meat Thermometers.......

    Also weber sells that grommet that is on the new units. You just need to drill the hole.

    Best "Remote" Meat Thermometers.......

    I also am sold on maverick. I now have the et733 and it has better range than the 732. I have them all the way back to the 73. Buy a spare probe with your unit and make it the extra long one.

    16# Bird & 12# Ham in an Electric Smoke Hollow

    I would just think then that your 30 pounds of meat in there is a little much for the element wattage. I think I have seen where some guys have put higher wattage ones in those smokers. I would just stick it out but you could finish in the oven if the family freaks out. Been there done that. You...

    16# Bird & 12# Ham in an Electric Smoke Hollow

    crank it up. That much cold mass in there takes time to heat up. The process will speed up once everything equalizes. Hopefully you are not soaking your chips as that doesn't help either. Do you have a water pan in there? If so you might take it out. If you start with cold water and all that...

    First Turkey - "lots of butter" method

    Did you brine it? I made the mistake of forgetting to rinse the brine off one time and it was too salty. I put my rub under the skin as well. If your skin wasn't good and dry it won't get real crispy. looks great to me though. Most birds are injected with salt solutions for moistness so I don't...
