    stuffing turkey

    Just put your dressing in one of those throw-away aluminum loaf pans and cook it next to your bird in the smoker.  All the flavor, without any of the salmonella. I do smash up a few cloves of garlic and a quartered lemon and throw them in the cavity, but that's about it. You want that heat to be...

    good rub for an oven brisket

    I have been using Montreal Steak seasoning on all of my briskets and it has been a crowd pleaser.  I also use it on my Chucks and Top Sirloins.  It's really great on beef of any cut.

    Freeeeeeeezzzzzzing...time for a cold smoke

    I'm so jealous..  It's 80 degrees here and I hate the heat. I'm ready for our 2 weeks of winter! Can't wait to see the outcome.  I love me some smoked cheese.

    Squirrel, Your wok is so clean...  Mine looks like a piece of WW2 airplane wreckage.  Great job on the rice!

    Smoked Turkey Questions/Directions on Pre Injected Birds

    I don't think it does any good to re-brine, but injecting is a good way to add some flavor to those.  I've had some good success with that.

    Brining ribs

    In my opinon, ribs have enough fat so they "self baste" while cooking so you get all the tenderness and moistness without having to try and add any additional moisture.  Also, they have a small cross section, so you get the effect of your seasoning all the way through the product.  Unlike, say a...

    Pumpkin prep??

    Good idea.  I'll probably follow your advice and smoke it for a while, then finish it in the oven.  I'll post some pics.

    Pumpkin prep??

    Ok, I got this recipe for pumpkin soup. I had the idea (of course) to smoke the pumpkin instead of baking it in the oven to prep it for the soup.  I've never prepared a fresh pumpkin, so I'm not sure what to do to get it ready for the smoker.  I know I have to cut it open and scrape out the...

    Sounds good to me.  Kind of like the old school pimento cheese spread. Hey.... there's an idea... Looks great.

    Jalapenos to start the day

    Out of curiosity, what are you going to do with those peppers once they are smoked?

    Great job.  Italian Sausage is my Kryptonite, and it's even better smoked.

    American Fries on the grill

    I saw an interview with the famous french chef Jaques Pepin.  They asked him what he wanted for his last meal and he replied "a perfectly roasted potato"  That just about says it all.

    Advice needed - Fall off the bone chicken

    I think the key is going to be sealing it tight in foil, or a foil pan with a cover like Eric said.  Maybe smoke it for an hour then finish it in the foil?  I've never attempted to get chicken to fall apart, but I would experiment with that method.  My sister in law suffers from this same...

    Charcoal vs Electric - Newby Needs Advice

    Welcome Blake! For me, a lot of the fun of this hobby is the challenge of building and maintaing a fire for as long as it takes to produce your desired outcome. I'm always tinkering around with ways to get better, or longer burns, or different kinds of woods. That's what attracted me to a stick...

    Smoked Turkey breast came out salty

    I'm going to get killed for saying this, but try injecting your bird next time instead of brining.  There are a bunch of commercial injections out there, or you can make your own with melted butter, some olive oil and some herbs and spices.  I've never been a fan of the brining thing (but I am...

    Sirloin tip question

    +1 on the 140.  That is some really delicious meat when it's nice and pink in the middle.  It gets a little tough if overcooked.
