    Any Bourbon drinkers here?

    Crown Royal Cask No. 16 is good stuff. I've been tempted to try the Crown Xtra-Rare, but at $120 a bottle it's hard to justify.

    Less fat in my ABT's

    I can't recommend turkey bacon, I tried it and to me it turned into a consistency and taste like cardboard. I like to use super thin cuts of bacon for wrapping japs, and I try to also find the leanest ones I can. Then I like to cook them until they are very crispy. By starting off with thin lean...

    How to remove fish taste and smell from little chief?

    hmm... odd... I've done tons of fish in my lil chief and never had anything else taste or smell like fish. Sure the smoker itself kinda gives off a fishy smell the next time I use it, but it never seemed to make it into what I was smoking. Like others, I'd say scrub it down real good with lemon...

    Winter smoke?

    I use mine to smoke all year round. Last year I did a smoke with 3 inches of snow on the top of it. Just be careful with the control box, they don't seem to like the cold weather, and really don't like water.

    Fattie rolling and eggs

    i've done it before with ground beef for a fattie. I don't think the egg effects flavor or texture much at all.

    POLL: How do you make your ABTs?

    didn't see an answer that fits mine so here it goes: Cored out, stuffed, wrapped entirely in bacon with a flap over the top to hold in the goodness, hanging by strings on the toothpicks off the racks, since I don't have any kind of holder yet.

    any good pork appetizer ideas?

    Was gonna say, a roll of pre-made biscuits, pressed into a muffin pan and filled with pulled pork and topped with shredded cheddar cheese is one of my favorites, but bmudd kinda beat me to the punch.

    mes controller removal

    I haven't started taking mine off yet, but I might this winter. It does exhibit problems starting up in cold weather. BTW, mine sits uncovered under a patio. If I remember right, it's just two screws and an electrical connection to take it off.

    What is everyone's bacon choice?

    I'm with warthog.... for ABTs the thinner the better I think. The thicker stuff just takes too long to crisp up and everything kinda gets soggy. Unless you pre-cook the bacon I guess. I usually just buy the super cheap store brand stuff. One store locally sells stuff that's so thin it's almost...

    My best buddy is not doing well

    It's always amazing to me how close we get to our furry friends. Shoot I still remember the dog we had growing up as kids, Daisy, and how much it hurt when it was her time to go. Still get a little misty eyed now some 30 years later thinking about it. They certainly can worm their way into your...

    My best buddy is not doing well

    Sorry to hear the news Flash. That's one of the toughest decisions you'll ever be asked to make. But take faith in knowing that he'll be in a better place once it's over with. Godspeed Scooter, may you rest in peace.

    Trout?

    I have a whole mess of maple from some trees my dad cut off his lot. Not quite sure what flavor of maple they are, but it sure does smoke nice. I've used it on everything from salmon to butts and it all comes out good. I especially like it with the salmon, I think it's even better than alder...
