awesome find!!! there are lots around here but like said way too cold up north yet.
my favorite way to cook them is tossing them in the skillet sliced up. med/low heat to render the water out. lots of water in these things! when the water is almost gone add a couple pats of butter and...
you new pickers just make sure you learn what your after. there are other leafy things you dont want to mix these up with. lily of the valley the main one. easy to tell the difference but they grow together so hastily grabbing n going harvesting can be problematic.
dont need anyone sick!
yes i always harvest sparingly to the patches. i have collected seeds in the fall to spread in other places. the seeds are a wicked cool color to look at. kind of a black green with an iridescent shine to them. a friend dug some up and transplanted a clump in his garden. they have survived 2...
i have only used chopped up fresh ones from garden. i like the fresh green taste and slight crunch it adds. i freeze my logs after smoking and havent noticed a "shelf life issue. i smoke my logs to 160*
yes thats way more of a unit! i like the easy dump ash tray and coal basket. the seal on lids always a plus. mine smokes out of every crack there is. lol i see it has an "insulated smoke chamber". that would seem to be a plus. it also brings up the question of rust. concern is it rusting...
i already have a large kettle that just sets there. i also have an up rite gas(i made to also burn coals) smoker, that does a good job. can be touchy to run though. when a fire lights up and takes off that smokers temp really skyrockets!

i have been using a char griller unit i got at a garage sale for 50$. its a gas on one side coals on other. both are barrels on their side. the gas side rusted out a couple year ago but the coal side was like new. previous owner must been lazy. lol anyhow the coal grill became my go to...
just a salt sugar brine with seasonings in it. i boil and simmer the brine to infuse the water. much better results imo. get brine chilled and submerge fish in it 24hr or so. drain chunks in sink and rub in some outside seasonings in the grooves if you want. just dont add salt to outside...
we love pike meat here. i bake the fillets rib side up. when it is baked the meat shrinks and the ends of the ybones stick up out of the meat. then you just pluck them all out and chow down! completely boneless then. onion garlic salt pepper paprika and butter pats on top. when done...
