    prime rib

    It can be the best you've ever had! This is how I do it too, but I take it rarer to 130 and then let rest for 1/2 hour (after I cut off a piece for my mother and put it on a gas grill to get medium-well). I think that cherry wood is key also. If you don't have that, be gentle with the harder...

    Blueberry Fatty

    Thanks! My first thought was . Then it was! Then my next thought is... Gotta' Try It! My wife and I love jalapeno jelly and have some in the fridge. The downside is that we don't have any more blueberry fatty left, and won't between now and Christmas. Maybe I can make it for New Years! If...

    First Garden Brussels Sprouts=Brussels Sprouts Casserrole

    Those are nice ones! I started some from seeds in the kitchen window, gave them a bunch of love and stuff, planted them in the garden about the same time you did, and now....several weeks later....I have a plant about 3 inches higher than it was in my kitchen and turning that "old" reddish look...

    OTBS Nomination

    WOW! Thank you Paul for the nomination and Dude for the second. I've learned SO much here over the last year or so and consider all of you a part of my life now. My wife says I spend more time here than listening to what she says . But, she loves the smokes (most of them) that come out of it...

    are twigs ok for smoking?

    I'll use any sort of fruit twigs or branches around the yard as long as the tree didn't die from a disease. With Rosemary, I've often wondered about that too, and I use it fresh in my water bowl thingy (technical term!) just to smell it, but when I cut the big twiggy stuff, it makes my...

    Smoked Venison Shoulder...self serve style?

    That meat looks great. So many people overcook their deer for one reason or another and yours at light-med-rare is perfect!

    What he said ^^^ Time will vary some on what you have it stuffed with so temp is the only safe way.

    Brand New 30" MES Door Seals Leaks Smoke

    It should shut pretty well. Make sure the gaskets are straight, etc and that the hinges are centered and snugged, and adjust the tightness on the door lock if needed. MES uses the door seal area for "excess" smoke leaks, so if you have the vent all the way open you shouldn't be having much...

    Where do you buy your sausage seasonings?

    I just got a pretty big assortment from here http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=12481148...%2Ci%3Agrocery Overall good prices and cheap on a couple of them (poultry seasoning comes to mind). Most of their mixes also don't include salt so you don't have to pay for that and can adjust it how you like...

    New 40" MES with window

    You're going to have to season it first. They tell you how in the manual you'll get, but it seems I remember that it was for about 3 hours. You have to do that to get all of the manufacturing "stink" out of it. Then a bit more time to let it cool before your first smoke to "set" the colors on...

    Who adds what to their water pan/bowl??

    Just water for me too although I've tried some other things like beer but I didn't really notice any difference and decided I'd rather drink it! I still do put in several fresh sprigs of rosemary when I'm doing turkey. I don't know if it helps the flavor, but wow, the smell that comes out...
