    My first foray.....

    I guess it was almost two weeks ago now that I cooked up this food but better late than never. It was two days after I bought my MES since I needed the first day to season it. For my first foray into the world of smoked food I thought I'd go cheap in case anything went wrong so I bought a...

    Publix customers.....

    Hunh, I picked up an 8 lb picnic shoulder roast the other day for $5.30...crazy. I'm smoking it later this week to tide feed me through the weekend. Nothing like pulled pork sandwiches at work! This'll be my first attempt at pulled pork so keep your fingers crossed for me!

    Pesticides?

    Hey folks, Just a quick question..... There is an orchard within 2 km of my house which I thought might be a good source for some apple wood but I was wondering if I should be concerned about possible pesticides that have been sprayed on the trees during the past growing season(s)? I guess...

    Well as of 12"15 I am now the pride-filled owner of a Masterbuilt Electric Smoker! Gotta love Crappy Tire...$199.99! My birthday came early this year. My present to myself will likely be a shoulder or picnic roast on my birthday...that gives me 'til June 26 to get my act together and figure...

    You buggers......

    You've got it right and thanks for the infor. There are lots of butcher shops around here, which I'm sure I'll get to know very well in the short term, but I'm actually looking for a hog farmer as I've come to realize that buying meat in bulk is a hell of a lot cheaper than going to a butcher...

    Smoked/Roasted Garlic?

    Yeah...I didn't think I was reinventing the wheel. :) I'm new to smoking so I'm sure I'll have a lot of "novel" ideas in the coming months.

    Smoked/Roasted Garlic?

    Has anyone tried it? I imagine it would be great spread on bread.

    G'day folks

    Hey there, I'm relatively new to the world of smoking meat having only done a limited amount using home-made foil pouches of chips on my gas-fired bbq. I'm looking into picking up an electric smoker to help move to the next level. This site looks like a GREAT resource for me and anyone who...

    Masterbuilt or Cookshack?

    Hey folks, New around here but I'm looking into the Masterbuilt (Centro) model from Crappy Tire. My 30th birthday's coming up and my wife asked what I wanted. I've been smoking some meat on my gas-fired bbq using soaked ships wrapped in foil and thought it might be time to step it up a notch...
