    Smokin-It brand smoker?

    Not sure about that smoker itself but the price seems kind of high for something so small.

    doing a small butt tomorrow

    There will be no difference in the overall smoke but why not just cook the whole thing and freeze the leftovers, that stuff is just as tasty (arguably better) as when you freshly smoked it.

    Baconnaise, Like it sounds.

    You would be better staying away from salt and not worrying about MSG which has gotten a terrible name since the 80s but truth be told it is no worse for you than salt and is extremely helpful for enhancing natural Umami. Glutamate is what gives us that "savory" flavor in meats, broths, pungent...

    Smoking Cheese in a WSM

    Caveman, Just about 2 weeks ago I used my Char-Griller to smoke some cheese and it worked great! All you need to do is get 3-4-5 coals going and place them in your charcoal basket with a few chips or small chunk of wood lying on them. The best way I have found to place the coals is one in the...

    Is there a Dr. in the (smoke)house?

    My BIL is highly allergic to all forms of tree nuts but has no issues when I use pecan or hickory. I Googled and researched it because I was wondering and there was nothing I found that showed any relation between allergies and smoked foods not to mention he has eaten stuff I smoked many times...

    corn beef brisket question...what do i do

    Steaming helps make it even more tender as well as extremely juicy melt in your mouth goodness. The reason I started steaming my strami is because that's how the delis in New York do it, Katz's Deli reheats and steams their strami for hours until it's ready to be served. Now you've got me all...

    corn beef brisket question...what do i do

    Get them in some water and soak them overnight changing the water 2-3 times, be sure to keep them cool as well. You want to soak them to get a lot of the saltiness out. Before smoking them take out of the water, pat dry and apply a rub. For strami I like some cracked black pepper, coriander...

    liquid smoke question

    It wouldn't be the same but it wouldn't be completely horrible either. The good majority of smoke flavored foods and most all smoky BBQ sauces out there use liquid smoke. Personally I don't use it because...well because but if you need to get things done and it is pretty much your only option...

    Baby Back Help

    You can rub the night before or you can rub and then just toss in the smoker, both work out great. If you want to be safe on them I would say use the foil. Most folks will tell you to do a 2-2-1 for baby backs but personally I find that to be too long if running at 250 so I do a 2-1-1. They...

    First spares w/Qview

    Looks good so far. One old restaurant tip on the sliver skin/membrane is to slightly slice through it if you cannot remove it, that way it will cook and disintegrate without any issues.
