    Beef heart pastrami

    I also have a lamb heart in the freezer.  I am thinking of wrapping it in bacon and smoking it.  This is my first time seeing a lamb heart.  It is like three bites worth.  I plan on taking the liver camping next week.  That should be a good dinner, liver and onions over a fire in cast iron.

    Beef heart pastrami

    I have been wanting to do a heart for a while.  It's been a good 10 years since my last one.  There is nothing better than a day after cold heart sandwich.  Anyway, I think I am going to make some pastrami from my next heart.  I hope to pick her up tomorrow, provided my butcher has one on hand...

    Hello from south central PA

    I too am from that area.  I've been wanting to do a UDS.  Maybe some day.

    22" WSM running too hot

    That's a good idea about disconnecting the probe.

    22" WSM running too hot

    I upgraded the door to my 18" so maybe that is one of the differences.  I'm excited to get my Hunsaker Vortex to see if that helps.

    22" WSM running too hot

    I have the Digiq, and it can't hold a temp.  I used it on my 18," and it worked flawlessly but on my 22" the temps rise to over 400 f with the controller set to 240.  I have been filling the basket with the original blue bag, and I use the minion method, ashing three or four pieces.  The temps...

    Mega WSM - think it will work?

    I have been talking to the owner the last two days, getting more information on the items.  He got back to me within a few hours after I submitted a request on his site.  I suggest you do the same.  I'm sure he will be willing to help.

    Mega WSM - think it will work?

    I am using one by Weber.  I am done with that and I am moving on to my two bags of Kingsford Original then I'm on to Royal Oak, once I buy it.

    Mega WSM - think it will work?

    Just to be clear, you are using the Hunsaker fire box in a WSM or do you have one of their smokers?

    Mega WSM - think it will work?

    That is very interesting.  You see those results in a 22" or what size?  I don't see anywhere near 10 hours even at 250, with a controller, in my 22".

    Mega WSM - think it will work?

    How easily can you control the temps with the Hunsaker?  Do you, or can you, use a DigiQ thing?

    Maple Coffee Dry Aged Bacon

    I have fallen in love with coffee rubs paired with molasses.  I'm sure maple would give it a nice flavor instead of the molasses.  I have been wanting to try pure maple syrup.

    ABTs...again

    1.5-2 hours is usually right but it depends on how quickly your bacon cooks.  Thickness will play a big role in the time.

    That is one nice looking smoker!

    Mega WSM - think it will work?

    I think I found a better use for the extra mid-section.  I recently bought a 22.5" kettle so I can turn that into a smoker whenever needed.

    Hot burger or Dog pattie, you decide

    I almost put mayo, ketchup, pickle, onion, and mustard on the sandwich.   The best dog I've ever had was a place in Easton, PA called Jimmy's.  They had ketchup, mustard, dill pickle, and onions, maybe not onions.  If you got one with everything, they skipped the ketchup.  I guess they didn't...

    Hot burger or Dog pattie, you decide

     Exactly.  I try to do that with all of my fatties.  I want thin layers that are throughout so it can be eaten on a bun and get a similar taste each bite.  You can follow a vein of bacon in that last picture that ends at the cheese.

    Hot burger or Dog pattie, you decide

    I woke up this morning with the urge to have a fatty for dinner.  I laid out my bacon then ground beef then I seasoned it.  Next came the cheese, smoked cheddar.  It was then that I opened the fridge looking for some veggies that I saw the hot dogs and because they are nutritional equals I...
