    Bear Smoke

    I think most of it ended up in the drip pan, the roasts were removed after 2 hours of rendering and injected and rubbed with yellow mustard and then a dry rub. The garlic taste was not evident on the roast, but the injection and dry rub worked great. They crusted up really well and stayed very...

    Opinion on "smoking"

    I have used my barrel type grill many of times to slow smoke turkeys or chicken, even slow smoked the bear loins on it last week. I just place the coals as far to the left as I can and the meat as far to the right. The trick is to not place to many coals into the grill. Using lump charcoal and...

    Woods for smoking

    Hey Dac, just look at the link in my post above, it explains the use of exotic woods such as peach, there are no adverse affects from using it, all it says is that woods like peach tend to lose their flavor quickly after being cut.

    Bear Smoke

    Thanks, I was amazed myself at how good the meat turned out, with the proper brining, marinating and smoking it tasted great. We expect to do it again next year.

    Bear Smoke

    The bear smoke went well, we started by making a big batch of bear stew in the 18qt cooker and drinking a margarita. Then we put the roasts on for two hours without anything on them but a mild rub of garlic powder to let some of the fat render out, after 2 hours we took them off and injected the...

I believe this bear was taken in the spring, when we were cutting up the meat, I kept smelling it to see if it had a distinct smell, but I really didn't smell anything. It appeared to be...
