    By popular demand.... pulled pork PUPUSAS (Qview)

    Since I joined SMF, folks have been asking me when I would try either smoking a pupusa or making some kind of local food in the smoker.  In El Salvador, the local food people eat the most are pupusas, which are corn tortillas stuffed with cheese, refried beans, pork, or any combination of those...

    Smoking bonanza w/ Qview

    Hey friends, just wanted to share some Qview from a recent smoke I did on the old untrusty ECB...went a little nuts with all the stuff I put in! Smaller piece is a pork tenderloin, larger one is a "nuca" or "secreto" which to the best of my knowledge is like a pork collar.  We don't get boston...

    Smoker thermometer, using probe type?

    Hey all, as a relative newcomer to smoking, I've been watching lots of youtube vids for instructionals on how to smoke food. One thing I've been noticing is that some rigs don't actually have a built-in termometer but instead have a probe sticking out and they refer to its screen to see how hot...

    Wood chips/chunks, soak or no soak, pouch or directly on the fire?

    Hey everyone, first post on here after lurking for a bit, the ECB mods were very useful!!!  Already did my roll call and as I stated there, I've had a hard time finding the right way to incorporate delicious smoky flavor into my slow cooked meats. I've tried using briquettes and lump charcoal...

    Howdy from El Salvador

    Hello all, I'm Isho in El Salvador.  For the past year or so, I have been experimenting with grilling and smoking, with fairly good results and some disasters in between (as i'm sure it happens when a noob tries to smoke a brisket!)  We have a very limited selection of equipment, meats, fuel...
