I stopped at a local BBQ restaurant and ordered a brisket sandwich. I was asked if I wanted it sliced or chopped. After ordering I was talking to the cook and asked if there was a difference between the two types of brisket sandwiches. He said the chopped comes from the point and the sliced...
I'm an Environmental Biologist. I work with applicants to identify environmental resources, assess the quality of the resource, then avoid the resource if possible. If it is not possible to avoid the resource I work with the applicant to mitigate the resources.
I had family over tonight for some wine tasting and we all agreed to bring over a hors d'ouerve. I decided to have smoked chicken wings. I bought whole wings and made party wings myself. I decided to make my own rub instead of using a store bought rub or a recipe. I used Mexican chili...
I am looking to upgrade my smoker since I have found myself really enjoying this activity so I stopped in a Grill and BBQ Specialty store to see what's available locally. I talked to the owner for a while and we got on the discussion of making BBQ in the winter. My limited experience with my...
That's the combination I've used for my last two smokes. I do like the results. Now it looks like I've got to try some kind of maple combination as well.
Some good information about oak. I cut a lot of red oak and maple (red maple I believe) so since I like the smokiness in my bbq I'm going to give some of the maple a try if I have any left after burring it for heat this winter.
I was up north working the dogs on wild birds and cutting firewood for the cottage and home when I cam across a nice dead and dry black cherry tree. My parents and I split the wood between us and I will be chopping it up for smoking. I also got some darn nice oak that I like using as well.
Thanks for the compliments. I got home from training my dogs and I was hungry so I just made a plate of leftovers and tossed it in the microwave. I think it was just as good today as yesterday. I had BBQ sauce on the table it went back in the fridge because I didn't want cover the flavor.
I decided to smoke one of the two beef arm roasts I have in my freezer. I pulled it out of the freezer Friday night and realized that it wouldn't be ready by Sunday by thawing in out in the fridge. So on Saturday I did what I don't like to do and let it thaw out on the counter. Saturday night...
Well I tried smoking my first brisket (flat only) last weekend. Things didn't work out very well. It was a windy day so I couldn't maintain a steady temp. After some wild temperature swings I couldn't stand any long and I pulled the brisket at 162 degrees F, wrapped in aluminum foil, and put...
I'm in WI and do mostly Cover Dog type trials (no killing of birds and run in the woods on wild grouse and woodcock). My English Setter does run big in the woods, which I like. In the fields she is not as big of runner as some of the Pointers (English Pointers), but she has as much style in...
Thanks for the replies. Yes I just have the flat. In fact the clerk said that is all they sell. I'm probably going to another butcher this weekend and I'll find out if they sell the whole brisket. I've been doing lots of reading and I'm learning there are about "100" different ways to make a...
I bought a brisket from the butcher this afternoon and have it in the refrigerator for Sunday. I asked them for a small brisket mainly because I knew it would be cheaper and considering this is my first one it won't break the bank if it doesn't turn out. Anyway my question is how many of you...
I tried chicken for my second smoke and it turned out fantastic. I recently bought a Maverick ET-73 remote thermometer and used that for the smoker temp. instead of the thermometer on the smoker. As you can see from the picture the smoker thermometer was off as much as 80 degrees F.
