    Prime Rib, Brisket, Butts & a Turkey!

    Debi, The Prime Rib was great! All though most complained that I did not cook it to death (scared of a little pink juice!), at the end of the rest period, just as I sliced it the internal temp was up to 138 - don't know why they were whinin'. I used a wee bit to much smoke again, so I will have...

    bourbon smoked ham

    I soak my chip or chunks in water with a little JD or Bourbon of choice, just don't use it straight for a soak. I have the weber wood soaker and just add shot or two in the water - works great!

    The analysis of my first turkey smoke yesterday

    If your smoking outside right beside your grill, I have been known to fire up the grill to about 350 and toss the T-bird on the grill to crisp up the skin. That skin was GOOD! Here's some Q-view for ya!

    Maple & Brown Sugar Buckboard Bacon?

    Debi - it was an awesome feeling to know I did this myself (with alot of PM's between us - Thanks!), and even better when we had homemade BLT's! I think that next time I make Canadian Bacon, I will use Pork Tenderloins (like you do), instead of Pork Loins, I just wasn't 100% happy with the way...

    Maple & Brown Sugar Buckboard Bacon?

    Many thanks to all who offered advise to help me get this done! All in all, I would say this was a successful smoke. Things I will change next time are the amount of wood I use - my smoker takes much less wood to smoke than most, and I forget that when reading threads on this forum. So my...

    Maple & Brown Sugar Buckboard Bacon?

    4:30pm - Two hours in to the smoke I spritzed with Jack Daniels & Apple Juice, added Cherry wood, and here is how they looked. What supprised me is, 2 hours in to this (3 if you count the 1 hour at 150), and the Canadian Bacon (Pork Loins) are already up to about 140 - I am taking to 160. The...

    Maple & Brown Sugar Buckboard Bacon?

    Here is some Q-view of the rinse process. I will be posting more pics throughout the smoke. I rinsed and scrubbed starting at about 9:30am EST. Got the soak started at 10:00am, changed water at 11:00am, so these should be in the smoker at about 1:00 - 1:30pm.

    Maple & Brown Sugar Buckboard Bacon?

    Thank you guys for all your help and wish me luck for Saturday, as I will start the smoke about 12 noon, after the rinse. I am going to use Hickory for the 1st part of the smoke then finish off with Cherry. I will also do as suggested and add the maple syrup after I have sliced and just before...

    2nd try at Ribs MMMMmmmmmm..... Good

    It was easier for me to pull them from the smoker after the 3 hours and finish the rest of the 2-1 in the oven. My smoker is kinda small and once you open the door to wrap with foil, you loose all your heat. So I usually pre heat the oven for this part, that way I can pull & foil them in about 1...

    2nd try at Ribs MMMMmmmmmm..... Good

    I had 350 lbs of other meat to smoke first! Seriously, I have a contact that is in food sales/supply for a major restsurant supply company, and he gets me Prime meats for dirt cheap pricing. So I make large orders from him for me, close friends and family. I have so much other stuff to choose...
