    Need Knives & Cast Iron Pots

    Which knives to get has a lot to do with how you're set up to take care of them. If they're just going into a drawer where the edges will get bumped and nicked, there isn't any reason to spend a lot of money on them. We've had a set of Chicago Cutlery knives for years now. I'm not sure what...

    It's been a long dry spell.

    One of the main reasons I use the aluminum pans is to make clean up easier. They also work great for containing the juices of the meat. When the juices start to accumulate, I draw them off and put them in a container in the fridge, that way the fat solidifies and I can take it off leaving just...

    It's been a long dry spell.

    I hadn't had a chance to do a smoke since before Thanksgiving and finally had a chance to get one in a few days ago. The main items were an eye of round and a chuck roast. The eye of round was injected with melted butter and some S&P, then rubbed with kosher salt and cracked black pepper. Then...

Dilly Bread 1 pkg. yeast 1/4 cup warm water 1 cup cottage cheese 2 tablespoons sugar 1 tablespoon onion 1 teaspoon dillseed 1 teaspoon soda 1 unbeaten...

    New Guy

    Welcome to SMF! If you're going to start out with a chicken, like richoso1 said, brining is the way to go, but if you don't have time at least inject the meat. You can get an injection syringe at lots of places that handle kitchen supplies, then just mix up some chicken broth and melted butter...

    Loading Six Racks, any special precautions?

    As long as all the food fits, I wouldn't think there is a lot of "special attention" required. I would suggest putting the beans on a lower shelf so the rib drippings can add some more flavor. Every smoker seems to have it's own personality, but you might be surprised at just how much the temp...

    smoked gyros

    I asked the same sort of question a while back. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...ighlight=gyros While I haven't had a chance to do the gyro meat in the smoker yet, we did three versions... lamb, 50/50 ground beef & ground turkey and 50/50 ground pork and ground turkey. We decided that...

    n00b from Nebraska

    Welcome to SMF! It looks like you're already getting some good advice about a starter smoker. What right for you depends upon your budget, how much time you are willing to devote to tending a fire and a variety of other things. I use an electric which needs a minimal amount of attention while...
