    Smokin' Chilli

     Hey Y'all  I did some baked beans a few months ago. They came out pretty good. Not certain the smoking had a lot to do with it however( I cheated & used Bush Beans). I got a pot of chilli in the slow cooker & I considered adding some smoke. How long would you smoke it & in what type cooking...

    Smoker Box

    I was displeased with the "Flame Disk Bowl" as it's referred to on my parts list for my MBPS so after a few experiments I found a cast iron smoker box on Amazon to use. Works pretty well on top of the flame disk thingy. An issue has arisen however. After a few cooks the original finish is gone...

    Pellets or dust

    I posted this in the pellet smoker isle with little results. For the folks who've tried both what do you recommend. The pellet smoker or dust smoker? From Amazenproducts or others.

    1st brisket

    I guess I need to wrap my head around beef being "well done" I like my steaks rare. Cooking a brisket is definately a different animal.

    1st brisket

    I smoked it for 3 hrs.@ 200 degrees (fat side up), wrapped it in foil (added some of the aus jus) & put it back in the smoker until the IT was 185. Placed it in a cooler for a few hours. Took it out & sliced it about 1/8" it was a little dry on one end & falling apart on the other. Flavor was...

    1st brisket

     Never saw beef briskets that weren't specifically for corned beef, Today at the market I did. Thought I'd give it a try.. I rubbed it with a concoction of seasonings & will let it set up til tomorrow. Upon seasoning I see one side has a fatty layer. Do I cook it fat side up, fat side down or...

    pllets or dust

    I'm in fact preparing to replace my mailbox. Since the duct work is transferring smoke & really not much heat I was thinking dryer exhaust hose would work. Whataya think?

    This could have gone a few places

     I liberated a number of burners from an old chow hall stove. I'm guessing they operated on natural gas. I fiddled with them for a time & even put one of the long ones in my gas grill. Didn't work as good as I would've liked (possible operator error). I'm not certain these will work well with...

    ABT's sometimes they ain't easy

     I've made atomic buffalo turds a few times. One time was exceptionally painful however. I picked up about 30 Jalapenos from Wally World They were quite potent. My eyes watered a bit as I was coring them. In the course of preparation I inadvertently touched my face just below my eye the pain was...

    Too much SMOKE

     As a person may get carried away with smoking 'everything' how much is too much? A week ago I smoked a turkey breast I put the bird in an aluminum roasting pan to secure the dripping for gravy. The gravy had a very smokey taste as well, no suprise it was smoked with the bird. Sometimes a...

    A few queries from the unknowing

     I've a few questions for those more knowing than myself. 1) how often do you add wood chips to your cook? I'd like to have a perpetual amount of smoke going throughout the cook, that seems near impossible. 2) what's a brisket? I've seen the corned beef briskets at the grocery but I imagine...

    Here's a door mod I made, I hated the latches on the side. I really don't know why Masterbuilt did that to begin with.
