    Pastrami Today

    Looks like all the internal fat and connective tissue has melted away. Did you have to chill this before you sliced it? I am going to have to try taking mine to 200-205 to see how it tastes without the chewy texture. I like the way it looks.

    Finally a start to my wood smoking journey

    As for the smoke stack, I came across (through a post on SMF) an Excel spreadsheet calculating the correct smoke stack size for individual smokers. http://webpages.charter.net/tomchism/BBQ%20Smoker%20files/Ratio%20calculator/timplate%20bbq%20form2.xls I don't have the original site, but the...

    Chicken

    I enjoy whole chickens as well. Once they are fully cooked, 165-170 degrees, they pull very easy. There is a lot of meat in a full chicken, with a variety of textures (white meat, dark meat, etc). I brine my first and they always turn out moist and juicy even after freezing and reheating in the...

    Hey All UDS Builders..

    Cool, thanks for the info. I figured they wouldn't fit perfectly.... my life doesn't roll like that. I was planning on welding a lip around the inside of the barrel so the lid would fit. A lot of work for a dome lid, but I wanted it so I could smoke a turkey from time to time.

    Prayer Request for my Mother

    I'm not a religious man, but I wanted you to know that I will be thinking about you and your mother. I know this is very hard, and I wish the pain for you and your mother will be minimal. Someday real soon I will have to step up to the plate and take care of my Dad, because he was diagnosed with...

    How much lump for an all day smoke?

    Make sure that the wood you are using is good and seasoned. Also, before you put the wood on the fire preheat it either on the fire box or in the fire box away from the burning coals. It cuts down on the icky white smoke as it starts burning. Six bags is a lot of lump, you shouldn't have a...

    All Cured Meat Weekend, W/Qview

    Okay, been on for little over an hour: The temps are rising quickly. I assume that it is due to the cured meat and the thickness of the meat. Both pastrami's are around 120-130 but the park is still around 91. The brisket that I made the pastrami's out of was pretty thin once I trimmed it...

    All Cured Meat Weekend, W/Qview

    First off I want to give credit where credit is due. There have been some really good posts about Pastrami and Capacola but a couple stood out from the rest. Also I want to thank Ron for his help, I picture him as being the "go to" guy when it comes to cured meats (among other topics). Here are...
