OK, so the bacon is going in the smoker in about half an hour. It's cured in a couple of ziplocs in the fridge for the past nine days following this recipe:

I wasn't able to get a five pound block, but I did get two 2-1/2 pound blocks, so...
OK, I'm going to be smoking a turkey for the family around Christmas, and I just had a crazy idea that I'd like to check out for sanity/safety etc.
I smoke in an ECB, and when I do a turkey, I usually put water in the water pan (duh), but then I put a disposable aluminum foil roasting pan with...
Aak, sorry for the overly long, no longer live update. Things didn't go so well; this is my first time trying to do "low and slow" in my modded ECB. The last couple times I did ribs, I was using an electric DIY flowerpot smoker, which turned out great, and I've done turkeys in the ECB, but...
Well, I haven't had the smoker out since Thanksgiving (I live in an apartment, in Japan, so even finding smokeable cuts of meat is a challenge), but I've got some vacation time today, so I'm smoking 4 racks of baby back ribs from The Meat Guy. Two for tonight, and two are going into the fridge...

I've previously made myself an electric flower pot smoker, but it's pretty small, so last year I bought a Brinkmann Smoke 'n Grill (ECB) smoker, knowing full well the problems it has and some of the mods to fix those problems. I was doing pretty well with my locally available "Smoke Wood"...
So here in Japan, the traditional Christmas dinner is fried chicken thanks to a KFC ad campaign a few decades ago (Really. Look it up if you don't believe me). I decided to smoke a chicken instead, using my modded ECB in only it's third run (smoked a chicken back in November, did a small...
