    "OTBS"

    Congrats to all the new members(too many to name at this time). I hope to be worthy of a nomination to this great order some day. Maybe after I learn how to show Q-View on some of my smokes. I have the experience but I don't have enough time in grade as they say in the service. I truly love...

    Jeffs rib rub question

    Debi, have you had to adjust the recipe also to meet your taste? I made up another gallon ziplock bag full without any cayenne or black pepper. Then I mixed the hot with the new and settled it down alot.

    Jeffs rib rub question

    I have just made up my first batch of the naked rub recipe. I rubbed a fatty and (2) deer backkstraps, and a rack of ribs this morning. I am just tasting it and it is great except it is a little hot and spicey. I think I am going to cut back on the course black pepper and use half the cayenne...

    what's in my wood?

    Hey low, My son has a firewood business and we have acres of cut and split firewood. He said it is definitly carpenter ants. He has some in his pecan wood too. It doesn't hurt anything and there is no taste transfer to the food when you light it up. The carpenter ants actually help dry out your...

    what's in my wood?

    Low and slow, do the holes that the "sand" is coming out of look like you drilled a 3/8 inch hole. Because carpenter bees are big black bumble bees that are thick as about 3/8 round. If it is real small holes it is carpenter ants who bore wood very well. I have some ants in my oak too. They are...

    Questions on cooking 200lb of butt

    This sounds real good. The only problem I can see with the website is the amount of aluminum pans you would have to have. Will two butts fit to the pan? Will 200 lbs. of butts fit into the smoker? If not you would have to have more than one smoker. Just my observation. I have cooked 200 lbs of...

    The grape

    Dacdots, thanks for the recipe. I will give it a try after I find a large enough jug. Any ideas on where to get the gallon jugs?

    The grape

    Debi, thanks for the link for supplies. I have never tried to brew beer or wine before. People have told me in the past that if it is not done right or too much air gets in while it is fermenting that it will turn to vinegar or just be bitter and undrinkable. I would like to try this hobby.

    The grape

    Hey Dacdots, that looks pretty good. I would love to have a recipe for making wine. I have read in books how to do it but it is too technical and you have to buy lots of equipment. I want a simple way to make it because I am a simple kind of guy. Like Debi says make things simple.

    Hello from central Tennessee

    Welcome Muddy to the SMF. We will be glad to see your rig and hear your stories on smoking-Q. What kind of population do you have in Muddy Pond? That's a lot of butts being smoked. Have a happy smoking day.

    I think i need a bigger grill (cookin pics included)

    With it being an offset ,maybe you could put the water pan under the grid right next to the side fire box opening. You could then fit 4 or 5 fatties right in that corner. Just my $0.02 worth. Happy Smoking and good luck.
