    Thanksgiving Turkey

    18 lbs is a little to be smoking.  Usually you want to smoke a 12-14 lb turkey.  I would brine the bird first, then I would spatchcock the turkey to get more surface area to get your bird out of the the 40*-140* danger zone within the 4 hour mark.  I am not very familiar with the Brinkmans my...

    My first spare ribs w/view

    I have snacked on a couple of those little pieces already.  However,my ribs are putting up a worthy fight, the meat didn't start pulling away from the ends of the bone for nearly four hours, don't know why.  So i just foiled them even though there is not much pulling away the internal temp was...

    Smoking a 20-pound bird for an hour or two, then finishing in oven: Recipe for disaster?

    I work with a guy who smokes his buzzards then finishes them in the oven, but I think he gets a higher temp than 100*, I think there may be some safety concerns with getting to 140* in 4 hours.  I have never done this before.  Martin

    My first spare ribs w/view

    I realized this week that I have only ever done ribs on the weber, so today is the day.  Picked up two racks of spares last night and rubbed them with meowey's rub, wrapped them up and back into the fridge until this morning.  Here are some pics of them just before they go in the smoker. ...

    Tip's Marinade, Practice Turkey

    This happened to me the first time I used Tip's, as well.  I now warm my apple juice or cider (depends on what I have in hand) and then add the butter, then the spices, wisk it a little then let it cool (if you get it too warm as I did the first time) then I inject.  This has worked for me many...

    Ss Double Door Electric Smoker

    So the PID is just a temperature controller?  I have heard of ramp but not sure what that is.  About how much did it cost you to build your generator, if you don't mind me asking?

    Chicken little help

    If there is only a little on the wing tips I would think it would be fine.  Are you going to brine it?

    No skin, it dried out

    I don't hink you can save the birds now, I have never smoked my pheasant but I do know that you want that skin on them to prevent this from happening.  If you do them again I might recommend wrapping in bacon, but like I said I have not smoked my birds before.  I would also brine them instead of...

    Insulation

    I think that will work, probably better insulation than what you took out.  It's all behind the liner so it shouldn't be an issue.
