    I need to brine my meat!

    Okay, I got the loins (thatâ€8482s not what my wife says ), pork loins that is, but could not find Prague meat cures. I plan to use the loins for Canadian bacon. I could only find Morton Tender Quick (not the Sugar Cure). The brine recipe on the container lists one cup Morton to four cups of...

    Just another newbie

    Hello Porsche Smoker, I am also a newbie but I would recommend testing your thermo with boiling water. It should read at about 212. I saw your posts on cigars. I love em but they always seem to have a lasting after taste for me. Is that due to the quality or just the nature of the beast...

    Ohio smoker saying hello

    Hey Tony from Northern Nevada; I too am a newbie to the forum, a voyeur for a year or so and now a participant. I am envious, we have relatively no source of fruit wood here for smoking; the sassafras intrigues me. What type of flavor does that impart? Welcome, Martin

    First go at a turkey

    I think the whole idea is to get the turkey up past the 140 internal mark in a relatively short period of time. I did two 12 lb turkeys two weeks ago at 270 and they turned out great. The skin was rubbery but the meat fantastic. If you smoke higher at 300-350 you will get crispy skin and be done...

    Voyeur

    Been a voyeur of the forums for a while and thought I would step-up and join the group. I have been experimenting with my smoker doing everything from shoulders, brisket, yard bird, fish, and turkey. I have learned a lot from reading all your threads and hope to learn more in the future. Smoke on!
