I got a Traeger Tailgater for Christmas! Definitely an upgrade from my Brinkmann. I can't wait to do a pork butt on this thing. Something I was never comfortable doing on the Brinkmann. That thing went through fuel like no other. Any tips or suggestions on cooking with the Traeger are welcome...
Would one of those hoop style electric briquette starters work for cold smoking or would it get too hot?
Also I have an offset smoker. Would I use the firebox or put the wood under the cheese?
I had to find a youtube vid on the weave. Lol. It really was pretty easy. I found I did not have any ziptop bags to roll the sausage in so I rolled it while it was on the weave. It moved around a bit but not enough to do any harm. Next time I'll try different fillings. The sky is the limit.
Sorry about that. I hit 225* at the grate on my Brinkmann offset. Smoked for 2 hours 45 minutes using Kingsford 100% natural "lump" briquettes and a chunk of pecan every now and then. Pulled it at an IT of 167*, rested for 15 minutes. Outside was pretty crispy and there is a nice smoke ring but...
My first attempt at a weave
Nothing fancy here
Just about done
All done! Took about 2 hours 45 minutes to get to 167 IT
I finished it off in the oven cuz I was not real happy with how limp and raw the bacon seemed on the inside. Paranoid maybe?
This may be taboo here, but, has anyone used turkey bacon and turkey sausage for a fatty?
Just wondering if it would work the same as I am trying to be on a "diet".
