    SuperBowl Brisket Smoke...

    Got up about 8AM today and started the ole stick burner up.  We were going to do wings today, but my wife had other ideas and bought a trimmed brisket.  Now, usually, I smoke a packer brisket so as to get all the juice from the fat to make us some gravy, au jus, etc...  But hey, I'll live...

    Smoked Cheese for Christmas...

    Yeah, I turned the cheese a couple of times.  Seems I only get good color on the bottom, so if I turn it I get a good 'skin' on two sides.  I'd like to have kept the smoke going a little longer to get more color, but I just couldn't keep the temps down enough in the smoker.  I added a bucket of...

    1st Cheese Smoke - Help Needed

    I still have some left from the first smoke I did a couple of months ago.  I just opened the last block.  It was so mellow and smokey.  All the way to the core.  I learned my lesson on the smoked mozz sticks, don't eat straight from the smoker...  :) The longer it sits, the better it gits! My...

    Holiday Cheese Smoke

    That's awesome...  Love the way you cut the blocks.  Sealing them like that makes a nice presentation for Christmas. Have to check out the vacuum bags.  I am always looking for cheaper stuff!

    Smoked Cheese for Christmas...

    So I decided to smoke cheese for Christmas presents because a cousin told me that if she didn't get some, I was going to have a much shorter lifespan that I have planned... To that end, I went out and found some cheeses for sale and the local SAMs Club and proceeded to fill the AMNTS with...

    DUTCH'S GOURMET COWBOY GRAVY

    This is going into the recipe book...  Not a big onion person when it comes to gravy, but thought I'd give it a go as is and tweak after.  It was delicious.  I simply added some S&P and a splash of coffee.  Perfect in my book!

    I call it the 20/20 Charcoal basket...

    I know this thread is old, but I have been looking for an easy way to make a charcoal box and this did the trick.  It was my first mod to my new offset smoker and I'm loving it.  I spent less than 20 bucks at Home Depot and about 10 minutes fabrication time.  It took me longer in Home Depot to...

    Saturday Brisket

    lol..  it does look painted on doesn't it :) I think the key for a good smoke ring is a longer smoke at the lower temps.  I have tried a few things, and this time it worked.  I actually put the brisket in the smoker while it was still very cold.  As in, almost frozen.  My refrigerator where I...

    Saturday Brisket

    Decided to replace my old offset smoker I got from wal-mart a few years ago with something slightly more substantial.  I still want a Jambo, but until I can afford to either buy or build one, I will make do with this one from the local grocery store.  H-E-B owns 'Sear 'n Smoke' brand cookers...

    Finally getting the pics up for my first cheese smoke...

    Yeah, it's the angle...  I posted to facebook that I was smoking cheese and a friend asked 'how, and how do you keep the cheese from melting?' so that's why the pic of the tube in the first place... Yes, it fits - barely. I have to put it in there above the lowest rack because the new design...

    Finally getting the pics up for my first cheese smoke...

    Master Forge double door propane smoker.  I had the vents full open the whole time so it had plenty of airflow.  Actually, I hot smoked some ribs with the tube smoker in there and I never had a problem with it going out.  3-2-1 method and had smoke the full 6 hrs at 225d I love that thing.  No...

    Taken from Mr.T’s“Smoked Cheese, From Go to Show” http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/123130/smoked-cheese-from-go-to-show-w-q-view#post_851120 So I took Mr T's advice on some things, and others I didn't quite follow.   I wasn't able to let 'all' the cheese sit for a full two weeks. Also...
