    My first fattie! With QView

    I used apple wood for the smoke. It went so well with the bacon. I think that is the best part of a fattie, the double smoked bacon. I want another one!

    From Hog Leg to Easter Ham!

    Thanks Pop's. If this small one works out I will try a big one. I love Amish ham and I hope that this will be a good home made substitute.

    First Time Smoking! w/ QView

    Great looking smokes! I just got a 30"MES and tried it out for the first time last night. Did me some drunken CSR's. I need to practice a little on that one. Question, how did you get your fattie and chicken to brown like that? I have been told that in order to get a crisp outside like that you...

    From Hog Leg to Easter Ham!

    I think it was a hind leg. It looks just like the ones in your pictures, just smaller. I wanted to have this for New Years so I was hoping a small one would brine in 2 weeks. Another question, why did you cut the hock off? Can I still leave it on? Thanks for all your answers.

    From Hog Leg to Easter Ham!

    Thanks for a great post Pops! It gave me the courage to give this a try myself. A question or two though, I am doing a leg that started out to be about 10 pounds and dressed out to about 8 pounds. I would like to have this for New Years dinner 10 days after I started brining it. If I pulled it...

    Smoked Prime Rib

    I am doing another one today as a treat for my wedding anniversary. This time I will use mesquite wood. One of you suggested that I let the meat rest after I take it out. Since I don't want it to be overcooked, I like it rare, at what temp should I take it out and for how long should I let it...

    GaryC from Illinois says hello!

    Right on! I was hoping that Mango would work and I see the forum is about split on the idea. So I will give it a try. If it works and I like it, great! If it doesn't then I will try something else. Thank you all for your suggestions and your welcomes. It seems I have found a good place to hang out.

    GaryC from Illinois says hello!

    I have been to PI many times and Lechon is wonderfull! I never tried coconut shells before, I wonder what it would taste like with pork. What I am wanting to do is to build myself (or have it built) a brick smoker when I move there. I love Philippino food very much but I cannot imagine the rest...

    Smoked Prime Rib

    I have been experimenting with smoked prime rib. I was using a commercial rub that I got from by butcher shop which is working well. I smoke with hickory at about 180 deg. It doesn't take very long for a 5 pounder (about 3 hours) since I stop cooking at about 160 deg. I put my roast in a pan...
