    Beef Bacon

    Was perusing Rytek's Book and saw a recipe for beef bacon. It seems to be made from a brisket. My wife is allergic to pork so I need to know if anyone has tried this and your opinion of how it came out. Tomorrow i will start a pork belly for the rest of us, but I hate to leave her out. Thanks...

    craigslist score !! 22.5" smokey mountain

    I looked at one today and the door on the side is hokey. To buy a new one at $400 would make me think twice. The one I looked at was at ACE Hardware. For that much money, they could put a door that wouldn't leak worse than a Brinkman.

    Why do you post on this forum?

    I post replies when I can add to the discussion. I start a thread when I really need help. What bothers me is people that post things like "I don't have this smoker, but someone will come along to help you". Are they for pathetically looking for points, or just looking to achieve a great number...

    Gas Grill Problem

    I just went outside to see what my Charmglow 4 burner would do. After 6 minutes, I was registering 450 on the stock thermometer. It sounds as though your regulator is not allowing enough gas to the burners.

    the long stall

    I was smoking 2 stramis last week and hit the "dreaded stall" for 2 hours. It just stuck at 155 and would not move. Then 'Bingo" it finally moved. As Yoda would say,"Patience my son". No one has come up with an answer for the stall. It doesn't happen in your oven (that you know of). Another one...

    I picked up CG SNP at Orchard Hardware for $165 no tax. Look around. If you have patience, you will find the deal. I bought mine way ahead od schedule only because of price. It is sitting in the garage waiting for my smoking patio.

    Capers

    No poll came up. I have developed a taste for capers. I like the saltiness they provide in a recipe. I think that a lot of people associate them with sardines in recipes. I don't like the looks of sardines from the can so I use the paste in the tubes. I guess it's an acquired taste.
