    Temps... what is ideal?

    @ bigbob73 - I'm over by Lake Arlington.... @ tlcase - I am using the AMNS with hickory dust in this this! http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/99091/stainless-steel-hospital-food-service-cart-build/20   I am thinking the higher temps are making the cheese sweat oils that collect excess soot...

    Temps... what is ideal?

    Yes Mike, previous batches last spring and late summer were in the 80 - 87F range and the cheese did sweat just a tad bit. But it also showed a LOT more color at 2 hrs running at those temps than this batch is at 3, going on 4 hrs now. So my gut tells me that cold temps don't lend to the deep...

    Temps... what is ideal?

    I have a crap-ton of cheese in the ol' cold smoker. Been going on about 3 hrs now... its a chilly 43F here in Fort Worthless tonight and my cheese is not showing much color despite the absolute perfect hickory TBS in my smoker right now. So my question is this: Does temperature matter much to...

    First Butt is on the Smoker!!! 10/8

    Keep the smoke light n' blueish, keep the temp under 240F, and when the internal temp hits 190-205F (use a probe thermometer) pull that butt, wrap in foil or set it in a an empty crokpot with the lid until the internal temp drops to like 130ish. Then pull n' pig out!

    Mesquite bean powder in a dry rub? (UPDATED with Q-View)

    Here are some pics as promised.  Here are the beans broken up into quarters. Makes loading into the blender easier and some of the moister ones were able to dry a bit easier. First run of about a handful of beans resulting in a coarse flour. The Blend-o-fyer 9000174 with some Mesquite...

    Mesquite bean powder in a dry rub? (UPDATED with Q-View)

    I picked about 5 lbs of pods yesterday. It was about 102F in the shade so I couldn't get as much as I wanted too. I have them drying in the oven at 200F after a nice hot water rinse to clean them off. I'll snap some pics of them in the morning. Most of them were on the ground and what was on the...

    Mesquite bean powder in a dry rub? (UPDATED with Q-View)

    OK! I tried this over the weekend... I made a 3 cup sized batch of "Geoff's disrobed pork massage" and added about 2 heaping tablespoons to the mix. I think It improved it ever so slightly... Im gonna try double the amount each consecutive time until it starts to overpower the other ingredients...

    Here in Texas we have an abundance of Mesquite trees. They are EVERYWHERE!! I recently read up on how to process the beans into a flour like powder that can be used in just about any baking you can think of as well as to sweeten smoothies. This stuff is very sweet and has a nice taste! I was...
