    Newbie Salmon Help

    I've never used a brine mix of any type on Salmon. I've just peppered, smoked until I thought it was done when pink and ate it. If I had a lot of Salmon I would like to try it with some brown sugar too. Never had it that way but it sounds good. I have the last of this falls Salmon thawing out...

    Had To Try A Fattie!

    Yep, just a bit much... We'll do them again but cut back on the bacon or add more cheese and spinach. I'm sure we'll also try a few other recipes from the Fattie area too. Jon.

    My Computer Blew Up Tonight Windows 7?

    Windows 7 is being plagued by the black screen of death now. They have replaced blue screen issues with the new and improved black screen. If you are having blue screen issues you are getting the best of both worlds from Mickeysoft. If you are feeling adventurous try Ubuntu Linix. The current...

    Cool. Our oldest daughter cooks cooks cooks. And she makes some killer stuff! Our smoker is actually hers too. Jon.

    OT- Does anyone use an outdoor wood furnace?

    We have a few in the area but I haven't talked to many people with them. A couple people we know have them and love them. The general consensus is the underground pipe is the killer as far as installation cost (they did the install themselves) and you need to be around to keep feeding it. But...

    food slicer

    I've been trying to find a good (non commercial) slicer for years without any luck. I would love to hear what everyone else is using with good results. My main use would be for slicing jerky. Jon.

    Had To Try A Fattie!

    Thanks for all the kudos. The smoker is now sitting at the front of the garage so it can be setup and in operation within a minute or two. I was looking at some pork loin Bassman made. Wow, does it ever look mouth watering! That may be the next thing in the smoker... Thanks for the comments...

    Had To Try A Fattie!

    Scarbelly, I was happy with the end result. It was just a bit too much on the greasy sausage side. The next time we make it (and we will) I will be sure to add a lot more cheese and spinach to help balance out the amount of sausage. We also added a few extra strips of bacon on the inside of the...

    Had To Try A Fattie!

    Ok, I had to try a Fattie! Below is a quick picture log of the "experiment". Cook time was right around 3 hours. Smoker temp was between 275 and 300 degrees. Internal temp shot from 150 degrees up to about 170 degrees in the last fifteen minutes while I wasn't paying attention but I don't think...

    Brinkman vs GOSM

    This might be a bit late but we have a GOSM and love it. I remember seeing the wide GOSM right after we bought our standard width model. If we had seen the wider model first I would have bought that instead. Jon.

    GOSM Temp issue

    Make sure the safety valve on the propane tank isn't acting up. With the newer valves if you open the tank too fast the valve may shut off the supply or only allow a small amount of gas out. I always open the valve real slow. Then after it's open I close it and open it again to make sure the...

    Hello To All...

    This probably doesn't matter but we dug the smoker out today to make our first Fattie... It's a 36" Great Outdoors Smoky Mountain. Jon.

    ADVICE: Need a new grill - Weber vs. Char-Griller

    I grew up on the Weber kettles too. Moved away from them for a few short years to try propane grills. We tried two actually then moved back to the kettle. Nothing compares... We do keep a Weber Q in our truck at all times though. Jon.

    Bannock

    Stircrazy, one of the trail cooking methods popular with the Boy Scouts is to make the Bannock dough and roll it out so it's the shape of rope. Then they wrap it around a stick and hold it over a campfire and cook it until done. It's not perfect but it works. Don't forget to add nuts or other...

    my flowers

    We didn't grow much of anything this past year. A few wild sunflowers were about all we had. Actually, they seem to come back every year... Jon.

    Cheese Making?

    Good thing you live in Wyoming! I'd be coming over for fresh cheese every day! Ya, I think cheese might be an addiction for me. Do you guys remember Dom DeLuise? Many years ago he had his own cooking show. I loved him and his show. Well, on one episode he was sitting behind a huge table of...
