    First pork loin smoke w/qview

    Brad, you're killin' me with the qview! I just stuffed myself a couple of hours ago and your post made me hungry again. I have yet to do a pork loin. I only hope that when I do it comes out half as good as yours. I'm sure Mike and his wife were delighted. I'd love to host a cookout for other SMF...

    smoked burgers

    Ground turkey burger? Is there such a thing?!? LOL, but seriously Steve, don't worry. That is a BEEF hamburger - the way the Lord intended them to be. Take care, Tom

    So...I have to smoke this brisket for tomorrow, and....

    VB, you're a trooper for enduring that brisket smoke. It only snows here once every 120 years or so. Everything looks delicious; you're company's in for a treat. Nice smoke ring too. POINTS if I'm able! Tom

    Step by Step Smoked Corn OFF the Cob

    Hi desertfox, thanks for sharing that with us. One more item added to my ever-growing to do list. It looks really good! Fortunately, we get fresh corn on the cob here year-round so I hadn't thought of smoking corn that way but I'll definitely try it soon. Thanks again and POINTS if I'm able to...

    First Fattie + ABT's + Spinach Side w/ QVIEW

    I finally broke down and smoked my first fattie today. 1 lb of beef stuffed with fresh spinach, portabella mushroom, red bell pepper, tomato sauce, Italian 5 cheese blend, and bacon bites. The dang thing had a few blow-outs but the bacon saved the day . I also smoked some ABT's (jalapeños...

    Smoked Chocolate Chip Cookies & Hot Dogs w/QVIEW

    Bassman, I don't blame ya for drawing the line at the smoked sweets. I admit that when the Mrs. suggested it, even I cringed a little. But they actually came out pretty good. Although it's not a breakthrough, it does open up a couple of doors to the imagination of sweet treats a la smoke. Dawn...

    Smoked Chocolate Chip Cookies & Hot Dogs w/QVIEW

    I don't know if this has been done here before but I had some hot dogs going on the smoker and Mrs. Tanker gave me an idea. Why not put the cookies in the smoker to see how they come out. They didn't turn out bad - in fact, they were pretty good. I used charcoal with a bit of mesquite and some...

    Looking for metal shelves for smoker

    Solid square steel bar also makes for good grates - easy to scrape crud off the top. Here are a couple I made for my smoker that are close to the dimensions you gave. They're worth the work because they're good for at least a lifetime.... Tom

    Experimenting with Ribs

    Jnstrom, I agree with bbqeng. Try smoking your BB's straight through without foil. If you keep a constant temp around 225 then they should take no longer than 5 hrs. Baste them (if desired) during the last :45 to an hour. It will be a pleasant change for you and your guests. Alternatively, you...

    --==+CONTINUATION+==-- Here's some of the flat sliced up...... And the point sliced up..... Everything came out great. The total time for the brisket was about 17 hours. Even though I didn't foil nor rest it, it turned out very tender and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Thanks for...

    Brisket Smoke & more w/ QVIEW

    On Sunday, to be smoked was: a brisket, cross-cut beef ribs, a rack of baby back ribs, some sausage, beans, and for the first time, ABT's. I got the brisket started at 5:30 in the morning and put the rest of the stuff on later that afternoon. I had a bunch of people over that evening so I got a...

    Baby back ribs - no foiling

    Hi Laurel, your ribs turned out perfect! I've been preaching about the benefits of not foiling ribs. Your QVIEW proves that if you want juicy, meaty, delicious ribs, don't foil 'em. Now, if you want the meat to be falling off the bone then you have to steam/braise/boil them somehow i.e. foil...
