    Posting pics ???

    I want to post some smoking pics but I am not sure how to do it. Can I upload them straight from my computer or do I first need to upload them to an internet site, like shutterfly? Patrick

    should I peel the bark??

    I am smoking a couple racks of ribs and a turkey this weekend and a friend gave me some apple wood 4-5 months ago I wanted to use for flavor. Should I remove the bark before using it? I have heard the bark can make the meat taste bitter - any truth to this? Thanks, Patrick

    First time rib smoke + pork loin

    Thanks for the ideas. I hadn't thought of a pepper jelly - that sounds good! I think this time I'll just spray them a little with apple juice and let that be it - and add a little to the foil wrap. I wasn't planning on adding any sauce. Maybe some on the side - but I bet the rub will be...

    First time rib smoke + pork loin

    I was at the local Food Lion today and spotted spare ribs on sale for $1.49 per lb. They just looked too good to pass up. I have been reading about ribs so I figured why not...take the plunge. :) So this weekend I will try my hand at ribs. I intend on using the famous 3-2-1 method with...

    Got SOme Diff. Types of wood

    Hey Bob Well I had my first smoke on the CG and the charcoal did great with keeping good temp - 215*-265*. I was worried about the fire choking itself out after a long period of time. So I started with fire on the lower grate in the fire box and when the ashes began to fill the space...

    char-broil side smoker

    the grill in the fire box is there in case you want to cook over it - like to make hamburgers or something small. You can take it out if you are smoking so you can get to the coals easier. You should probably put your meat more in the middle of the cooking chamber, away from the side fire box...

    where to get wood???

    I would like to try using wood for my heat source instead of charcoal - I have a chargriller super pro with a sfb. I like hickory over mesquite, but have no idea where to get it. Any ideas?? Are there any other types of wood that would be a good heat source without flavoring the meat too...

    Time for a new smoker!!!!

    Thanks Earl I bet your backyard does smell good!!! I have not heard of using sawdust for smoke... sounds interesting. Do you just toss a handfull ontop of your coals? Good idea doing a trial run. A smoked turkey will def. get some serious bonus points with the in-laws. Good...

    Got SOme Diff. Types of wood

    I have just bought a Char-griller super pro w/ sfb... I have read that when smoking with this unit it is hard to get charcoal to reach proper temp due to the large size/volume of the cooking area. They (char-griilers web site) recommend using wood - so on to my question....what types of wood do...
