    Smoking my first salmon - what's this yellow gunk oozing out?

    If you want to go the snack route, you can go with a strong salty brine. Maybe some spice like coriander or maybe juniper berries if you can find them. Keep trying, and find what you like.

    Smoking my first salmon - what's this yellow gunk oozing out?

    I might be smoking some salmon later today. I find salmon to be highly variable. As I do it, it depends on how I intend to serve it. If it's going to be large portions, then I'll cook it gently, just a kiss of smoke and still moist and tender. OTOH it could be "overcooked" when the smoke...

    Hello from WV

    You are going to have a lot of fun learning this. Expect a few misses but every time will teach you something. Share your food and people will wonder how you produced it. We're not jealous of our secrets here. If something works then WHY NOT TELL the WORLD, eh?

    I need a new knife

    My neighborhood Harbor Freight has the ceramic knives with white blades. I've never tried one and I'm tempted. But I don't need any more knives.

    Smoker/grill

    It's nice to have many choices. Sometimes you want a long complicated smoke. Sometimes you just want to zip something.

    Smoker/grill

    Depending on exactly what model of offset you're using, you might be able to cook on grates in the firebox and not even involve the cooking chamber. Or, if you have a charcoal tray in the cooking chamber, you can grill directly. You can also play tricks like making the fire at one end, with...

    Hello from Gilbert Arizona

    I was at a big camping event near Alpine in 1979, that was in the pine woods around 9,000 feet. It's surprising how short-breathed you can be just doing something like climbing a small slope.

    So tired of sexism.

    I confess that my baking addiction was started with the gateway drug, Jiffy cornbread mix. So easy to make that it's fool proof, and fools have proven it. Now I make savory cornbreads or even just simple pop-open biscuits, and none of my male friends do any kind of baking at all. I don't...

    So tired of sexism.

    Hey PB do you ever wander into a chocolate/pepper combination with the baking? Something like brownies or fudge. You could challenge guys. Bake some innocent-looking cookies with some slow-to-hit pepper like habaneros or ghosts. Watch the guys take a bite and say "These aren't hot" while you...
