Started my beef roast a couple hours ago. I meant to post pics of the fresh cure of my smoker, and the preparation. But I was all wrapped up I forgot. I'll snap a couple when I transfer to pan and cover.
More on the way...
I'm a kinda Noob.
I got an electric smoker yesterday and I'm going to try a Beef Chuck Cross Rib Roast here in a couple of days (Wifey stuck in in the freezer). Anyone have any recommendation on how to smoke it? I've already read a couple of articles and now I'm all corn- fused! One article...
Yup! The ribs were great!!!
As for the secret burger seasoning, I took literary license. I use coarse ground black pepper, a dash of each onion and garlic powder, a good seasoned salt, hickory smoke salt. Season to taste and go lite on the seasoned salt. I like just plain old Kroeger...
Sorry, didn't get any pics...
Anyway, the ribs came out great in spite of my issues.
First off, my smoker temps were all over the place. (I started smoking at 6am) I was shooting for somewhere around 245F. The only way that I could get anywhere near that was by opening the smoker drawer...
Ok, I have pellets in, gas on low, damper closed, and a pan of water. My temperature is running at 250F. What now? Will using strictly clunks or chips soaked help with temp?
Not really. I think that it's an older unit. It's been used some because the grates are a bit discolored. there's a little rust on the bottom of the smoker, but nothing serious. The grate on the top over the damper is missing and there's a touch of warp on the damper.
I think that as old as...
No sign of any rodents.
Too windy to smoke it out right now. Maybe fire in up after dark. Wind usually dies out about then.
I have it open wide, give it some air. Who knows how long that it's been all closed up.
Got a free Char-Broil smoker yesterday and today looking at meats on sale. What kind of smoke can I do with a Pork Shoulder Roast and Pork Back Ribs? I have a recipe for Apple Wood Smoked Chicken Quarters that I really want to try now that I have a genuine smoker.
I have a Char-Broil Big...
I just got home from picking up a free old Char-broil cabinet (upright?) Smoker that seems to be in really good shape. I needs a coat of high temp flat black, but other than that...
I has a cast iron smoker floor, and the temp gauge works.
