    Quick question??

    I smoke cheese often; it really helps having a thermostat wired into the heating element and a Bradley smoke generator http://bradleysmoker.com/products/sm..._generator.htm If you plan to build a smoker, look into making it both electric and charcoal capable. I produce some delicious smoked...

    Deer Roast Success

    Yes dacdots I agree with the getting out in the wild, there is nothing like sitting in the woods, it cleanses the soul. My old lady doesn't have the patients anyway; sitting still and completely quit is pretty hard for a woman anyway. All she needs to do is buy a license; I'll take care of...

    Deer Roast Success

    When I first met my wife, she wouldn't touch wild game. I told her that it is all in how you prepare it. Now she not only loves the taste of it, she even helps me skin the deer, cut the meat off of it and package it. Now all I have to do is get her into going hunting.

    Meats for Jerky

    Thatâ€8482s funny Dutch. I am lucky to have a brother-in-law that raises his own beef cattle, so when the freezers low I order me up a 1/4 of beef, and let me tell ya, the crap the grocery store sell tastes like road kill compared to it. Thereâ€8482s nothing like fresh killed, chemical free beef.

    Damn buzz, you made black pork rinds huh. Don't feel bad it happened to me with deer sticks a few months ago. I too got distracted and ole Mr. oxygen got my fire going like wild. Well the end result was a bunch of black shriveled weiners. I will get you a program that works well for editing the...

    Smoked Beer Can Chicken

    Yes desert toad, I used a 1/2 of lemon to plug the neck holes and the juices must have run down the chickens because they had a lemony twang in certain spots. The birds were damn good, I let my wife take one to work with her and she said her co-workers scarfed it down quick, and one guy took the...

    Best paint for side smoker box

    This is what I did with my New Braunfels. I brushed the outside of it with a light coat of new motor oil. Unlike your cooking oils, motor oil doesn't break down at 400 degrees and it sticks to the outside of the grill and will keep it from rusting pretty good. Now I know what your thinking, but...

    Smooookin' in the rain!!!!!

    Hey Buzz, I wouldn't put jerky in at a high temp, or you might wind up with something with the consistancy of pork rinds but they will be black. Post some pics when you are done.

    smoked eggs

    I have pickled eggs before and it seems that the ones I smoked first absorbed the pickling juices better. I am not sure if the smoking process broke down the white of the egg to make it more absorbent or what. But the eggs were very pickled and the hint of smoke tops the cake. Let em sit for...

    Newbie from Denver Colorado

    Welcome Jim, I too used to live in Colorado. What I remember most is the effects of drinking beer for the first few times at a higher altitude wow. But Earl is right it does take longer. If you get a chance go to pikes peak, the view is breath taking...Bring a six pack with, and a DD.

    smoked eggs

    Broke open a jar of the pickled smoked eggs last night, all I can say is, time to go buy a few dozen eggs and make a big batch. They were awesome. The smoking first, then pickling method works great.
