    beer in the water pan?

    A can of Coke in the pan does help with the flavor of poultry. Turkey in particular.

    Is this forum getting to go belly up!

    Any thread that isn't about something smoking is wasted space on the servers! WD, I have new respect for you for standing up and speaking your mind. You are up to 7% respect now from me! (sarcasm there!) Meowey is my smoking hero and summed it up beautifully. My advice to all, is take a...

    Royal Oak Smoker

    I wish I had picked one up. I don't have an offset and this would of been a good unit to start with.

    question about my smoking

    I kid you not, I had a 9 pound butt that stalled for over 6 hours. In fact, a 12 pounder that was in the same smoker, for the same amount of time, finished before this one. The painful truth is that it comes down to fattiness and other connective tissues that can't be guaged by looking through...

    Royal Oak Smoker

    I considered picking one up, but noticed that the doors didn't seal really well. At least not on the display unit. The steel seemed decent and it felt like a really solid unit. The box claimed that it was designed by the founders of Oklahoma Joe's smokers. Or something like that. They...

    How much finishing sauce?

    I poured the entire recipe over a 7-8 pound butt. I am crazy I guess, but I love that stuff!

    Thanks to Everyone...This site is great!

    We are only as good as our people. I think that there are so many here who want to lend a hand that it just makes even the greenest of smokers feel like they can accomplish great things! (and you can!)

    Looking for Brining

    I start with a basic brine of salt and sugar then I add just about anything I have on hand. Apple juice, italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, orange juice, anything. Brines are sort of like a great chili. Add whatever ingredients you think would taste good and see how it turns out.

    Finishing Sauce?

    I smoked a 7 pound shoulder the other night and made a batch of SoFlaQuer's finishing sauce. I poured the whole thing over the pulled pork and mixed it with my hands. It was awesome! Gives a slight vinegary flavor with a touch of heat. I add Sweet Baby Ray's sauce and some horseradish to my...
