    Sweeeet Deals

        Ever come across one of those sweet deals, where you happened to be in the right place at the right time?  I think that there must have been plenty of us who have.  aka -  Blind Hog acorn story.  Thought this thread might be a good place to share/brag about it.  A friend told me of this ex...

    Reverse seared tri tip

    That Sammi looks awesome!!  Must have taken a while @ 180 to get the TT to 123*.   Reminder to myself, never reverse sear bacon wrapped pork tenderloins again.  Someone will call the Fire department.  Excellent pics of a very nice smoke !!  Congrats on making the carousel.

    Membrane on Baby Back Ribs

    In also use the butt end of a spoon and paper towel, but start in the middle.  Work all the way across so you can get your finger under it (here's the cool part) pull straight up and the membrane  comes off nicely and completely.  Cant stand the texture of cooked membrane. So I'm on the remove...

    Thanks Murray, what size hot plate are you using?  Also will it get up to 170 degrees to finish?

    Hot plate in a gasser?

       Thanks for the input.   I understand about the needle valve to lower the flame, however I'm paranoid about the wind blowing it out  (outside)  and dumping gas inside.  1500 watt hot plate with a thermostat attached should work IMO.  I've been thinking about the bulb on a capillary tube type...

    Hot plate in a gasser?

        I am interested in making summer sausage or ring bologna in my Smoke Hollow 44 Gasser.  I know I'm unable to get the temps low enough to get started on it. I guess my ? is, has anyone put a hot plate in their smoker to smoke sausage and if so, what is the best way to regulate temps?  I was...

    Low Carb Pulled Pork Tacos

    Outstanding idea!!  Two months of low carbs and I miss my tortillas.  Now I'm uplifted at the thought of tacos with a cheese shell. If I can just find a cheese store here in Wisconsin!

    6 bone-in Turkey Breasts Q-view

    Those look like some fine breasts!!  Great color also. Details on the injection?  Curious as to where you can get that many big ones?

    Calling all Smoke Hollow owners!

    I have the 44 pro series with the two chip drawers.. Used chips and small chunks with success but they last about 30 mins. chips, 45 mins chunks.  My question - Has anyone used pellets in the chip drawers and if so what were the results.

    Freezer too big?

    Splitting it up the middle sounds good.  Maybe generate smoke and heat on one side and move it somehow to the other.  Need to melt another 8-10" of snow to get up to it for pics but I will soon (I hope!!)   Why we live here in Wi. is beyond me. Brain juices musta froze up!

    Freezer too big?

    First post to any forum.  I have a comm. 2 door side by freezer with inside cabinet approx. 6w x5h x2d. Been thinking about converting it to a smoker.  It has fiberglass insulation and external compressor on top outside.  I originally thought a hot plate type heat source would work, but after...
