    smoking a turkey for first time tomorrow!

    Smokemom, I'm sorry I have not been up to date on your posts, but smoked turkey is the best. Here are a couple of pics of our T-Day cook last year, and I hope Cajun has you straightened out with the pics.

    3-2-1 Question on Temp

    A couple coctails too many, but I love your avitar! Anyway, Mistica-something or other has it dead on. Look for the meat pulling from the bone and foil. 321 is too much for baby backs, but ribs are ribs... Also, I will sauce and finish over a hot grill to get that perfect result. Nevermind...

    First time bbqing

    First, this is probably the Jim Beam talking, but congrats on your cook! Second, Ribs, and to a lesser extent butts, are very sensitive to rubs. The best way to figure out the best amount is to do several racks with different treatments. Anyway, your ribs look great, and welcome to the...

    Brisket Pics

    I usually only use one, but the flat is thinner than usual. I just don't want to over cook it, so I have a therm in each part. As far as the pics, I'm not an expert, but I down loaded a picture resizer, which allows me to shrink the pics. Most of the photo software now has a resizer, but mine...

    My Little Lang

    Cooking a little brisket this morning and took a couple of pics. The first is one of my little helpers, and the second is my brand new freebie tent my FIL donated to the cause. His company sent it to him, but it had a broken corner bracket. For $11, it is fixed, and I have this beauty taking...

    Score in Marietta!

    Ice, There is a boat builder in San Diego that builds a boat that I would really like to have one day. When I finally break down and buy it, I'll haul you a load of cooking wood when I go to pick it up. Hell, wouldn't it be great to enjoy Q on a new boat cooked over southern woods!:)

    Score in Marietta!

    Needed some wood for a brisket smoke tonight, and this is what I picked up for $20! Its a mixture of pecan, hickory, and white oak, and it is cut to 16" lengths, which is perfect for both my BSKD and Lang! If anyone is interested, just PM me and I'll give you directions.

    Peaches and Pigs, Kennesaw, GA

    We will need all the help we can get! I can't say that things are very well organized at this point... We will do a practice run this weekend with chicken thighs and a whole brisket, as these are the two catagories that I need the most practice. I usually smoke whole chickens, and I like to...

    New Lang Smoker

    Wow Dutch, in less than a year, you'll have a new smoker plus interest! :) Edit: Damn I'm tired... I guess in a year or so, you'll have a new smoker plus interest...

    Peaches and Pigs, Kennesaw, GA

    Yeah, we'll be cooking. You can help if you want, or just sit around and drink beer... If I had known you and the wife were coming, I'd have had a couple of extra t-shirs made. But stop by, and watch the fun as this will be my first real contest. No telling what might happen...

    New Lang Smoker

    I bet you would! ;) However, how would I explain to my wife that I was going to the Great White North to cook every weekend? Also, I wonder how your wife would handle a drunk furry redneck shacking up on a regular basis...

    New Lang Smoker

    You guys just figured me out! BTW, the price on that beast is $15,000, which probably isn't a drop in the bucket for Dutch! ;)

    Brinkman vs. Chargriller

    Congrats! You can make a temporary baffle with foil, and it will really help the performance. If you have any question, just let me know.

    New Lang Smoker

    Ben Lang has a new cooker in production. It is the 108 Twin, with deluxe warmers, and a HUGE chargriller on the front of the trailer. The units can be operated individually, or in tandem, and as a bunus the whole rig is set up as a fifth wheel. If I win the lottery, this will be my next...
