Thanks for sharing. What a low life. It's hard to believe that people who hike and go into the woods would do that. I have always found people who hike and share the great outdoors to be helpful and generous.
I'm happy to see you will forgive the first time. And pray there is no second time...
Goat and lamb can be cooked about the same. I have done goat shanks a few times and I like them better than lamb shanks. Goat is a little sweeter. I have never smoked or cooked a goat rump joint. It looks like mostly bone. Is that true? If it's mostly bone, smoke it and make the smoked goat into...
Thanks for the input. I used Morton tender quick for the cure. 1 1/2 teaspoon per pound of beef. I didn't add any extra for the bacon since it was already cured. I didn't add any binder, does that help with the dryness? By reading the replies, I think I had the temp to high and I didn't give it...

The wood used is the most important part of smoking. And the meat, fish, chicken all take a different type of smoke. You really can't go wrong with a light smoke. Alder and fruit woods are almost fool proof. As a new smoker, start with light woods and work you way up. It takes more skill to use...
