    Weekend roll-call - whats smokin'?

    Never thought about smokin' hot dogs and meatloaf. Do you put the meatloaf in a pan? How big is your meatloaf, what temp do you smoke it at, and how long does it take? Can't wait to see the pics.

    belgium Mother's Day menu from grill and smoker Q view

    Great day in the mornin'! That is some feast! Thanks for the alternative ideas for things to put on the smoker. Those stuffed mushrooms look especially tempting. Also like the looks of them taters. And the Calvados cream sauce is something I'll have to try as well.

    Our second Pulled Pork Ever Q view

    Great experiment! At what temperature did you transfer your pork to the cooler? Did the foiled ones reach that temp at the same time as the unfoiled ones? How long did you rest them in the cooler? I've always done unfoiled, but simmered the pulled pork in a finishing sauce. I may have to...

    Nice set-up you had there. Did you have a lot of company for the overnight smoke? When you do pork for fund raisers, how do you price the end product? You do sandwiches? Any sides? What do you charge? How much meat do you put on each plate?

    New to sausage

    I always just do patties. Its especially good if you are doing breakfast sausage. Jimmy Dean can't touch some good ol' homemade sausage!

    Rust removal for smokers

    I used steel wool and a lot of elbow grease on mine. I've heard that rubbing down the outside of the smoker after each smoke (while the smoker is still warm to the touch) helps. I'll be trying that myself now that I've got a freshly painted smoker.

    First Pulled Pork Q-View May need some help.

    Could you or someone else please put a video up on Youtube of the dough hook in action? I wanna try it, but think I need to see it to believe how easy it is. To the OP, did you spray the butt down at all during the smoke? That will help avoid pork dry-out.

    Checking in from NorCal

    Thanks for the warm and plentiful welcome! I can't wait to get some meat on that smoker! The great thing about smoking meat is that its almost impossible to do it exactly the same way twice.

    Your best EATS in NYC

    You're gettin a lot of good recommendations. But one thing: you forgot to mention your budget. NYC has some of the best restaurants in the world, and the prices to go with them. That said, you can find some amazingly good restaurants that aren't flooded with tourists or people looking for the...

    Tri-Tip Qview

    Try doin' it on the smoker the whole time. You'll have some real tender tri-tip on your hands . If you really want the crispness on the outside, then you can just throw it on a super-hot grill for a minute or so on each side.

    Here goes 1st time rib brine

    I'm curious to hear how they tasted. I once pulled a butt out of cryo-vac packaging and was hit with a powerfully nasty smell. I had just bought them at Cash 'n' Carry (Smart 'n' Final for some) a few days prior and had kept them in the coldest part of the fridge. As mad as I was about it, I...

    Brined-up a mess of fresh/frozen pork...Sunday's smoke, w/qview

    Good work. I'm a big fan of putting the butt in a brine first and then I use a low-salt rub. Of course, I'm not using fresh pork. Glad to hear you were happy with the results.

    Smoking Duck Breast

    Sounds interesting. Thanks. I've cooked duck breast on the stove, so I got the scoring of the fat down. I guess I could use the same marinade and see how it turns out. After all, its all about experimentation anyway.

    Smoking Duck Breast

    Nothing exciting or adventurous, just some farm-raised ducks.
