    First big cook in my custom built - Q-view

    Nice looking smoker. Plus nice looking ribs. Did you test your new rig for evenness of temps from side to side and both top and bottom racks? If so how even was the temp throughout? The ribs look pretty evenly done in your pic. As Tom37 said, it takes no small bit of courage to cook for a...

    Would this be a good starter Dutch Oven set?

    I have all Lodge pots now, my only Camp Chef was stolen but it was very well made. I didn't like the Camp Chef lid as well as the deeper lipped Lid of the Lodge, it was rounded and the briquettes could roll of it too easily so when it got stolen I replaced it with a Lodge. I think for a starter...

    whats your favorite wood for pork?

    Man I hate to complicate your question by adding another colour but I prefer the Black Oak that I get for free growing high up on the Mountain. We get a pickup load whenever we hunt Mule deer along the USA/Canadian border country each fall. It seems to be a little stronger with a slightly better...

    In Honor of Ron P w/ Q-view

    Oh Man what a bummer. I haven't been on SMF for several months due to ill health ( small heart attack and new stent in my heart ) and the first thing I learn upon signing on is the Passing of one of my best friends ronp. He is a legend on here and a huge help to anyone who wanted it. I will...

    Steelhead.....Trout or salmon?

    One tip if you are catching your own salmon up river... don't go for the brightest chrome fish you can. Instead save that well coloured fish for smoking. by the time they have been in the freshwater They have more of the tasty oils in them and they finish with noticeably more flavour than a...

    Little guy VS. Godzilla literally

    You'd think that the several organized religions that have used the word God or Gods in their advertising for many thousands of Years would take out a class action suit on Toho for their blatant use of the word God In the word Godzilla in their literature and advertisements. It is clear to me...

    Why 4 hrs

    Does anyone know what effect removing all the air from the meat has in preserving it. Eg. using a vacuum bagger. Or does that just speak to eliminating freezer burn and have no effect on the growth of the little nasty bugs. I have found that placing tiny little signs on the surface of the...

    I just saw Giada from the Foodnetwork...

    I put Chicken on the bottom rack in the smoker for two reasons. First so it doesn't drip contaminants on other types of meat and also because It has a ton of fat drip off of it and I don't like chicken fat in my ribs, abt's, fatties etc. I try to stagger the meats vertically so the drips miss...

    Kitchenaid attachments?

    I have the Kitchen Aid stand model. The only thing I ever found wrong with Kitchenaid is the dough and K hooks that come with it. They tarnish very easily and will give bread and pizza doughs ugly black and grey streaks. You have to shine them up with fine steel wool like an sos pad before you...

    A quick question to test mathematic abilities.

    farewell

    He had a stroke while out crabbing. They got him to Dutch Habour then flew him to Ancorage . That was all that was on the show. I guess he passed away in the Ancorage Hospital. Great Guy. Great show. I will miss him. RIP Capt.

    Haven't smoked in 2 years! This weekend, I'm back!

    I Have not been on SMF for quite a while due to a teensy heart problem. ( solved by putting a new stent in my Heart ) but even so I did quite a bit of smoking during that time. I smoke hotdogs and ABT's on my little Cobb cooker. In actual fact most of the work was done by my Son who came over...

    A damper has been put on my smoking/fishing weekend. Booooooooooo

    I have to back up what JustPassingThru  said. He is very right about gout and about Pork Fat. It contains purinols that cause the really extreme pain of gout. Believe it or not so does white turkey meat and califlower. To describe the pain associated with gout, picture stubbing your toe really...

    Remember when?

    When I was a kid back when the earth was still cooling down. The only stores in our town that were allowed to be open on Sunday were Drug Stores. And then only for prescription drugs. The Mill and other businesses also did not run Sundays. Which made Church picnics easy to schedule. We had a...

    Mom's Recipes

    My Mom gave me my Grandma's old recipe box. Her recipes and tips were hand printed on 3x5 inch recipe cards. Her handwriting was exquisite.  It has things in it you'd never find in a cookbook of today. For instance a tip written in the margin of one recipe for baked chicken. When killing a...
