    Couple of value reds.

    After having 1990s vintage with Judy Groth we were sold on aged wines. Once my wine cellar is completed I plan to buy wines I like in bulk and age them, so I don't have to pay the inflated aged price down the road.

    How does this ABT sound?

    My ABT/SBTs were a huge hit. Cut them boat style, cleaned them out and put in zip lock baggies until just before smoke time. Filled some with French onion dip, some with Jalapeno and Cheddar dip, sprinkled on some cheddar cheese and wrapped them all in Bacon. Smoke for 2 hours on Hickory and...

    200 person wedding

    If you can't fit all the meat on your smoker I bet somewhere around you offers rental commercial smokers. They are available around me, I think its about $200 a day or something. Assuming you are getting paid to cater this event you would just have to add that into your cost. Buy the potato...

    You need to look a the thread start date, this thread is over a year old, and someone replied that the drawing was held in November. So tickets are no longer available. The start date is in the top left corner of the first comment box. Reply dates are in the same location of each post.

    PA get together?

    I've been back, but I've been waiting to see how many people responded. I was going to offer to host at my place if the group was small or suggest a camp ground if the group got too large. I'm in Mechanicsburg, PA (Just outside Harrisburg). GrangerMan has offered up his property which is an...

    Will following this method result in a "lightly smoked Pork Butt"?

    Top has been open 100% from the start. I think it's actually steam from the water pan, cuz the smoke smells goooooooood. Temps started dropping so I'm 0-10-10 on bottom vents, top still 100%

    Will following this method result in a "lightly smoked Pork Butt"?

    My wife doesn't like a heavy smoke flavor so I don't want to over smoke my first Butt tonight.... The woods I have to choose from are Apple, Hickory, Pecan, and Mesquite all in chunk form. I was going to follow what this guy did in this video for Minion Method, would the amount of wood he puts...

    Couple of value reds.

    I think Mick is just rubbing our nose it in now! /cry The only way we can get the prices down to what we paid in the state of OH is to make it ourselves. It works out to about $3.25 a bottle depending on what we're making. Whites a generally cheaper then reds. The cheapest bottle of commercial...

    Couple of value reds.

    Yes it is very interesting and very frustrating. PA tried last year to privatize wine sales but the Beer distributors and the State employees union fought it and got the bill pulled. It basically would have scrapped the states liquor stores and sold licenses to private companies to operate wine...

    PA get together?

    Is there any interest in a PA get together? Depending on the interest level it could be just a small gathering in someone's back yard or maybe a camp ground?

    Couple of value reds.

    The state of PA is terrible when it comes to Wine policy. Not only do we pay a tax, but the only way to get wine is from a State owned and operated Wine / Liquor store! This poses many issues, not the least of which is high bottle prices before paying an additional tax at the cash register! This...

    Couple of value reds.

    My wife and I went to Napa on our Honeymoon, and we loved it. Now when we go to the liquor store and see some of the winery names we think back to being at that exact winery... We are going back for our 5 year anniversary next year! Next time stop by a place... I think it was like Jacobs...

    Complete fail on my first smoke.

    If the flame goes out when the lid is closed sounds like the fire box isn't getting enough oxygen when the lid is closed. Try opening all your firebox dampers 100% and lite it. Assuming this smoker was used successfully in the past by others, its just a matter of learning the adjustments. If...

    Beef short ribs - First time smoking with wood

    Just pure personal preference but I'm with Flash I like my steak on the more rare side. So to me, I find Flash's last picture to be more my style. But different strokes for different folks and Bravo to you both!
