    info needed in belgium

    I cannot add anything to what the others have told you (except to comment that reading the descriptions makes my mouth water. ;) ) I like to use a water pan because it makes temperature control easier. At 212° F the water starts to boil and keeps temperatures from getting too much higher I...

    My first beef (with Qview)

    The pork came out a little on the dry side, but nothing I can't fix with a little sauce when served or reheated. The beef is terrific! And I have to add, the biggest factor in my success is the information I've gleaned from this and similar sites. I'm standing on the shoulders of giants! No...

    My first beef (with Qview)

    Here's some more results. The pork country ribs which were sort of incidental: And the burnt tips after a half hour back in the smoker: I wonder how I can tell when they're done.

    My first beef (with Qview)

    I've had fun with pork and fowl and have been anticipating smoking my first beef. However, with pulled pork, smoked turkey and smoked chicken in the freezer, I've been holding off while we draw down on our reserves. When I spotted whole beef tenderloins at the local market for $2.99/lb and then...

    Beef Tenderloin: It's whats for Dinner

    And I kept kicking myself for not grabbing a couple. So I went back today. There were none out. :( I asked and they got me one from their storage cooler. :D They told me that the price was $3.99 but when I pointed out the sign that listed them for $2.99 they honored the price. Tonight I cut a...

    Cheesecake factory Beef ribs

    Thanks for the link, Ron. Between this thread and that link, I had to stop and make a sandwich before I could finish reading. :drool:

    Beef Tenderloin: It's whats for Dinner

    They're on sale at a local grocery for $2.99/lb. so your post is very timely. I was wondering about how best to cook it on the smoker. I'm used to doing pulled pork but it looks like there is no benefit or desire for a long slow cook with the beef, correct? It looks like a shorter smoke to an...

    The suspense is killing me!

    Thank you. It's nice to have good looks (food, that is - I'm in trouble on my account ) but more important to have good eats! That said, there is something about putting meat on a salad that seems to bring the flavor out. For dinner tonight we had a nice salad with romaine and red leaf and...

    The suspense is killing me!

    Well... OK, here's the rest of the story. I wanted to wait until after I had dealt with the cooled turkey to pass judgment. I'm not entirely satisfied. The white meat still seems dry. Perhaps the only way to defeat that is to inject the breast. I'm satisfied that I cooked the bird to the moment...

    Walnut smoked chicken with Qview

    You never know until you try I guess. I'm not sure how to describe it. I would say that it was on par with maple (box elder, actually) in strength but maybe a little sweeter. Neither is a strong smoke flavor but I like both. I'm just saving stuff I trim on my suburban lot and (except for the...

    Walnut smoked chicken with Qview

    For my next experiment in smoking meat, I picked up some chicken legs and thighs that were on sale. This time I decided to try using some black walnut that had grown too close to my gutters. ;) I had trimmed some limbs earlier this summer and cut some disks that I dried in our oven. For this...

    Reconnecting with Granny Smith (with DOview)

    Hi guys, Thanks for the comments. I just want to add one. A Dutch oven is a pretty versatile piece of cooking gear. If cobbler is what comes to mind when you think Dutch oven, you need to expand your horizons! And yeah, it really was good. I'm thinking I might try it with pulled pork instead...

    Reconnecting with Granny Smith (with DOview)

    SWMBO found Granny Smith apples on sale and bought a bag. This reminded me of a recipe we used in Boy Scouts that included Granny Smith apples, breakfast sausage, bread, eggs and cheese baked in a Dutch oven. It's been years since I made this so I googled for the recipe. I was really surprised...

    My Recipe In Bon Appetit'

    Interesting story and thanks for sharing it. I grew up in the 'burbs (Brookfield and LaGrange Park) and after a brief stint in Indiana, wound up in DuPage Co. I agree with your feelings about food in the Chicago area. There's an incredible variety if you just get out and find it. I also love...

    My WSM has a Mini-Me (Qview too!)

    That would be a MM-WSM I guess. ;) I'm really happy about the results I've gotten with my 18 1/2" WSM to date. There's only one problem. For something that size, it's relatively large. Mostly I'm cooking for two of us. I've found that pulled pork and smoked chicken seem to freeze fairly well...
