    Plum wood chunks

    I recently bought some wood chunks and got a pound of plum. I was thinking about using it to smoke a turkey breast this weekend. I also have apple so I am undecided which to use. I think I have heard that plum wood is good with turkey? Has anyone done it? I figure I might go with the plum...

    Thighs

    Why? Because they took the other pieces first? :D No, I have always liked the thighs. The breast is my least favorite cut. Don't know why, that's just the way it is :D

    What the heck is a beef roll???

    It wasn't any kind of a roll or processed in a tube form or anything. It was a cut right off the cow. Looked like a giant brisket or sirloin tip roast or something like that. I never saw one there before, I'm going to have to see if they are there again next time I go. The first thing I...

    What the heck is a beef roll???

    I was at Sam's Club tonight. While looking through the meat section, I saw something called beef roll (I think?). It was "something" roll. It was big, like 18 or 20 pounds, and the whole thing was around $30 so I guess it didn't cost a whole lot by the pound. I couldn't get over how big it...

    Why I like This Forum

    Well said Noah. I didn't know the first thing about smokers 3 months or so ago and just this past weekend my neighbor was asking me all kinds of questions like I am some kind of expert :D I always check this out first thing in the morning and last thing before I hit the sack. I've never met...

    Turkey breast, foil and cooler???

    Thanks! One more thing. I recently bought some wood and have cherry, apple and plum. I was going to go with the apple but am thinking about using the plum. Has anyone used plum on turkey? I think I have heard it was good but I've never used it. Thanks :D

    Turkey breast, foil and cooler???

    Thanks guys. The way the breast came last time, it is wrapped in a net with a piece of skin on the bottom. It is not connected. I think I just threw the skin away last time, I don't remember. Anyway, let's say there will be no skin. Noah, why no bacon? I thought that was supposed to be good...

    Turkey breast, foil and cooler???

    Brothers, I did a turkey breast a month or so a go that turned out real good. I'm looking to do another one Saturday. My wife will be at work, so I would like to start it around noon or even earlier so it is done before 5pm, when she gets home. So let's say it is done at 4pm and we aren't...

    Brisket question please

    OK guys, that's good enough for me. Brisket it is. I'll have to pick one up in the next few weeks. My wife already has me scheduled to do another turkey breast this weekend. Good stuff, but I think I am finding my favorite thing on the smoker is the beef :D

    Brisket question please

    With all this brisket talk I want to try one out sometime soon. I have read enough about them on here that I think I have a pretty good idea how to go about smoking one. I was at Wal-Mart the other day and was checking out the meat. They had brisket flats and they also had nice looking sirloin...

    Thanks Rodger, I'm going to have to mix my own next time. Looks like the ingredients are simple enough.

    Wannabe blackened catfish

    OK, I really screwed this one up :cry: Mistake #1: Somehow I talked myself into believing I could get the same good blackened results I did the last time with only half the charcoal. I used 1 charcoal chimney full instead of 2. Mistakes #2, #3, #4 and #5: I was out of Crazzy Cajun...

    Could wood chunks dried for 1 week be ok to smoke with???

    Hey guys, It's a guy selling wood. He lives in WA and also builds furniture. Looks like he owns land with timber and has access to a lot of wood. That's what it sounds to me anyway. I bought 1lb alder, 1lb maple, 1lb plum, 3 pounds apple, 6 pounds cherry. All chunks. Just wanted to try some...
