    Newbie to smoking!

    Welcome to the forum. You can make some pastrami with the flat. Brisket for your first smoke is very daring. Good luck and read lots of threads on here about brisket and you'll do just fine.

    Rub and cover?

    I put the rub on mine just after I start the fire. Around 45 minutes later I put it into the smoker.

    -11 Wind Chill

    Is it even legal to be out in the temperature......lol......I will smoke anytime of the year but at that temperature I'd order in. Good job on trying it. Can't even imagine how cold that is. It gets down to low 30's here but only in the morning.

    Look who is cold smoking cheese AND butter baby!

    Looks great, did you cut the blocks of cheese before smoking them? I've smoked cheese twice now and the middle doesn't seem to get much smoke in it. I vacuum seal it and leave it for 1 week before cutting into it. Should I leave it in longer before cutting into it? I smoke it for 3 hrs. with...

    Left Over Pulled Pork

    I used my leftover pulled pork to make a cheese grilled sandwich with the smoked cheese I did a few weeks ago. It was so good I'll be smoking some more cheese and pork shoulders just for grilled sandwiches.

    First time smoking a chicken

    Depends on what temperature you're going to be cooking at. Ideally for chicken I do it at around 250-275*F. to get crispy skin. I use almond because it's easy to get where I'm at. As for a rub, use what ever you like...I use pepper, garlic, and some paprika for color. I brine it overnight...

    Charcoal Smokers for 40 people

    It's time to invest in a bigger smoker and/or grill. I was using a UDS and had to finally get a bigger smoker. Do it and you'll never regret it. Make sure it's a quality smoker not one from your large home improvement stores. Those are made with really thin steel. Good luck and happy shopping.

    Wood ID

    It does look like black cherry. Has the right reddish color and the rough bark.
