another 16 inches of snow today and still coming down. I have lost all my grills and the big easy and propane under the snow now.
Last night in the cold snow I did a 7 pound chicken, 2 1/2 hours to just barely get it done right.
4 feet of snow covering the barbecues decided to dig out the Big Easy oil-less fryer and cook up a roasting chicken let easier than trying to fire up the WSM smoker. It is supposed to take 10 minutes a pound, this was an 8 pound bird, took 2 hours 15 minutes of course it was 15 degrees outside
I had seen those for sale, BJ's had the 32oz I think, I still have a quart jar full but want to try to make my own.
I think I will get some of the Maple Syrup granules and start there
I recently went to BJ's and they no longer had Smokehouse Maple spice.
Has anyone put together a recipe for it?
I see the ingredients on the bottle but figured if I could get a recipe it would speed up my experimenting
Hey Tex, I checked out the threads, and the all seem to smoke in a smoker first and then finish in the Big Easy, makes sense, was just wondering since the new 3-1 big easy is a smoker as well.
Oh well I have to get back to the reloading bench, have to make up some 45/70's
I have been searching to see if anyone has tried smoking in the Big Easy propane smoker, not the electric or the 2 in 1 combo but the original Big Easy?
I was thinking of trying it like you do with a propane grill, wood chips in aluminum at the bottom of the "fryer"
Any ideas? I may just try...
I have the WSM's, a 22.5 and a 14.5, so I can't speak to the Brinkman, but I run about 50/50 on wrapping, sometimes I do sometimes I don't.
I am still learning but do think that wrapping will speed up the cook and retain moisture.
I like the WSM's they are mostly set and forget.
I got thinking about "pizza stones" a rectangular baking stone. That would stand up to heat, but a 14x20 runs about $40
I could wrap it in aluminum foil and then could use it to make pizzas on the smoker after taking the foil off (foil might keep the coal out of it)
I decided to try to multipurpose my New Braunfels offset smoker. I figured if I took the cooking racks out of it I could put in a metal plate about 14x30 inches that would sit above the bottom grates and allow me to put 2 12 inch or 2 14 inch dutch ovens in it to cook. It would have 3 (almost 4)...
