Duh!! I can use the stuff I already used outside. I also buy the aluminum pans at the discount box store. For some reason I was wasn't thinking about those because I only used them for meats.
Shhhhh. Don't tell anyone about my this, okay?
I have some baking pans and sheets that I only use on grills and smokes because of the smoke residue on their outsides. I've noticed a lot of you use cast iron cookware in your cookers.
I know how to care for the cooking surface of my cast iron stuff, but how do you clean the outside when...
I agree with zwiller ....It depends on your smoker. When I use the MES, I don't have a good bark. And if I wrap with foil on any cooker, the bark softens a lot. I'm not s big bark person anyway as sometimes it's too crunchy for my taste.
Don't get discouraged because one doesn't become a good...
I'm starting to really enjoy this forum. This country boy has never heard of Capicola, but after Googling, I want to try to make some. But I haven't eaten in 7 hours.
Thanks, y'all. I'm going to be drooling like Pavlov's dogs until I get this thing and start cooking!!!
And Will Squared, let me know how the yard bird turned out.
I couldn't tell if these were skinless, but if you ever cook chicken with the skin on and like the skin, you'll appreciate the high temp cook. I always smoke a couple of turkeys for the tribe at some holidays and cooked low, slow and long. The meat tasted great, but the skin was like chewing on...
Got it. Just my feeble attempt at humor. Also I'm a fellow vet, US Army, 1969-71, two years, 10 months, two days, 11 hours and 43 minutes. I got an early out. Thanks for your service.
Exactly. They are commonly called sharpening steel, but don't really sharpen. Here's a good link: https://www.cooksillustrated.com/articles/276-how-to-use-a-honing-rod. Although most don't put the handle up but rather the point up and not on a hard surface.
The Firebaord sounds like the PID I have on the Akorn but how does it interface with the fan in the MBGF? It seems like if the fan isn't constantly running, the stack of fuel would be like a charcoal chimney. Of course, I don't even have my gravity fed smoker yet oh, so maybe I will better...
Sorry to hear about the family being burned out.
I'm tempted to do some nighttime cold smoking but will probably wait until fall. I might read up on hot smoking since I love bacon so much.
Steve, I'm not trying to be a know-it-all but that rod is a honing steel and isn't used as a knife sharpener. It realigns the blade and will take off burrs. I use it before each use out of habit or often when boning and trimming.
Several years in a meat market back in the day.
Thanks for the advice! I never would have thought about trail mix and I could smoke some mixed nuts and sunflower seeds. It's getting too warm deep in the heart of Texas for cold smoking but I have done it when cooler with a maze or tube in my plain charcoal grill.
Also a tip return...I...
Thanks! Definitely will. I inspected the floor model for quite a while like I was going to buy it and everything appeared to be as it should. Of course I couldn't check the electronics, but the one I go to has stood behind anything with which I have had an issue.
I figured if they have put...
