I mixed up a batch of ground beef today for naked beef logs. The recipe called for 1 TBL of TQ for each pound of meat. I was looking around at other recipes and see some calling for 1 tsp per pound. I think Bearcarvers calls for 1 tsp. Morton's website calls for 1.5 tsp. Do I need to throw this...
I am sure someone more knowledgeable than me will respond, but I have always thought that you should only cold smoke a belly if it has been cured. Does the less than 40 degrees negate this? I love this forum, always learning something new.
I also do the entire process in the smoker. I start at 110 and bump up temp every hour or so topping out at 150 or 160. I apply the smoke after the 1st hour.
Al, I never see the full packers here either only flats, wonder if they are stocking them now. Good reason for me to try to smoke one since I still haven't done one. They added pork belly too recently which has been great.
Listen to tropics and Smokin Al, they know what they are talking about, the brisket wasn't finished. It's done when it's done, not when a timer goes off. Take the next one to a higher temp and you will be happy.
Alright, I will beat the horse some more, I love the WSM too. I have the MES 30 too, but I usually only use that for bacon and beef sticks. The WSM does a great job
Did some spare ribs for the game on the WSM, went dry this time and they were tasty. Mixture of pecan and cherry. Forgot to take pictures during the cook.
IMHO I wouldn't run it without food, I view that as a waste of fuel. Throw a butt or a chuckle. Very forgiving cuts and you end up with food for your efforts. And as for chicken, I can't get my WSM that hot, she wants to run lower. I could mess with the door but don't want to. I don't care about...
