    Smoked Pork Chili Relleno Chimichangas

    Nice job; it's been a while since I've done chiles rellenos so they're overdue. I'll be referencing your post when I make 'em for sure. Thanks, Tom

    Chinese FiveSpice Fried Ribs

    Well Jeanie, they may not taste smoky and they may be fried but we're still carnivores around here. Dangit, those ribs look appetizing! Very nice job! Tom

    Picnic pork shoulder question

    I agree with Swede, go for the bone-in picnics with as much skin as possible. Skin/fat cap down and let it cruise. I still foil-towel-cooler my picnics though. As far as the solution your picnic is soaked in, it's more of a brine than a cure. In my experience, it does tend to make the cut a...

    First Chuckeeee! Dang..... that's good!

    Some of the links are broken pignit. After the through-door view, I can't see any of the pics. Even then it sounds like it came out great and now that I think of it, I've never done a chuckie. I'm going to save your thread for when I get around to doing one. Thanks for the QVIEW (and the...

    Beef Ribs 3-10-09

    Congratulations Sgt; they look tasty. Have you ever tried smoking the beef ribs without foil? Good call with the mesquite, nothing compares with mesquite smoke flavor on beef (in my opinion). Thanks for the QVIEW, Tom

    Check out my next smoke...Birgus Latro!!

    Palm smokes insatiably since it's so fibrous and not solid - not the good kind of smoke either. Bananna trees don't produce a woody trunk/limbs, they are green. Believe or not, i've tried smoking with both. The only one that has any kind of positive potential is the bananna stalks. You have to...

    Check out my next smoke...Birgus Latro!!

    Never seen or heard of this crab. What region(s) do they inhabit? Can they be store-bought. Ever smoked it or otherwise eaten it before? Interesting. Tom

    Texas-Sized Burgers on the 'Arturito' (R2D2) W/QVIEW

    I have no idea. All I know is that we bought the biggest buns we could find and about 15 lbs of ground beef. I mixed it up with some of my burger marinade. They had to be over a pound each when they were cooked. They were actually like meatloafs on a bun - Had a nice crust on the outside and...

    Smoked And Cured Chix Thigs

    It looks delicious Ron. I like how you started out at a relatively low temp then kicked it up. It does wonders for any type of meat in my opinion(within the bounds of safety). Thanks for sharing, Tom

    Texas-Sized Burgers on the 'Arturito' (R2D2) W/QVIEW

    We smoked some monster burgers on my Brother-in-Law's smoker the other day. The patties were hit with around 4 hours of charcoal and some mesquite for maximum flavor. They turned-out pretty damned good and the inlaws got a pretty good kick out of them. Here they are about 45 minutes into the...

    Barbie-Q

    Hehe.....that's something my brother-in-law and I would probably do if we got drunk and had some damned barbies laying around. No barbie dolls in my house nor his though. About the only toy I could throw on the grill would be "Thomas The Train" but my boy would hate me forever LOL. Tom

    **boston but w/bloody marry mix**

    I look forward to seeing the finale. I've never heard of anyone using bloody mary marinade; is this the first time you used it or have you tried it before? How's the flavor? I bet it comes out damned good - I'll have to try it someday soon on some pork or chicken. Tom

    What do you do for veggies???

    My favorite side item is corn on the cob. I just throw them in the smoker with the leaves still on and let 'em go. Once they're done, you can husk 'em, add whatever you like on it and sear it for a minute or two. MMMmm... I'm hungry now! Tom

    Spare Ribs on my CB American Gormet w. QVIEW

    Looks real good Dan. I'm sure you'll have your smoker modded in no time and correct the low heat issue. Before you do anything drastic, try briquettes next time. I often have stability issues when I use lump because of the different sizes and densities. Briquettes and/or wood work beautifully...

    I just got a huge smoker , I cant afford to fill it up

    Holy crud! When life throws lemons at you, make lemonade. Translation: build a catering business around your new smoker! Nice find man, if you don't mind disclosing, what is/was the asking price on it? Tom
