    new at this smokin cooking not doing well

    I would suggest you switch to a milder flavor smoking wood. Hickory can have quite a bite!  Try some apple or cherry or even maple.  Home Depot and Walmart seem to carry the bags of chips (I am assuming nationwide) so that might be better to try than the pellets. If you are getting a bunch of...

    PopPop, When you update your location, I sure hope it says NW Ohio!  I'd love to see you in action at that place. That is one awesome setup......maybe in 35 years I'll have something that nice! I can only hope.

    Quickest way to thaw a frozen 6# Pork Shoulder?

    WC, You can start the thawing process by using the method suggested by Digg, but put it in your fridge all night.  When you wake up there will likely be some ice in the water since the cold transferred from the butt to the water.  Just change the water and then follow Digg's method.  You total...

    Tips for MES Owners

    I like the dishwasher method too.  I have also let them soak in soapy water in the sink and then used a soft scrub brush on them.  That usually does the trick.

    Which Thermometer to trust - Butterball Turkey

    Don't trust the pop-up thingy.  I understand you should also check for 165 degrees in the deepest part of the thigh, being careful not to touch bone.

    Hello... I want my baby back ribs!

    Welcome neighbor!  I am in Luckey, OH and also work in downtown Toledo. Where's the BBQ place you speak of downtown?

    Greetings Fellow Meatheads

    You'll get no flak here for having an electric! If your Weber grill is a charcoal kettle you can smoke with that too. I did for years.

    Need advice on cold smoking cheese

    I think Scar gave you very good answers. I wouldn't use the hickory for your first time because it can have a bigger bite than the apple-pecan. And regarding portion size, if you think you want to package and consume it 8 oz. at a time keep them whole. But if you think you will consume smaller...

    Masterbuilt Chip Tray Upgrade Or AMNPS? Help........

    The beauty of the AMNPS is that you will get a good consistent amount of smoke that is pretty much hands off for hours and hours once you get it burning correctly.  With the chip loader, you have to add more chips every half hour or so, and the smoke may not be as consistent as the AMNPS.  There...

    My first try at smoking a Beef Roast

    Bill, What kind of roast was it?  Unless it was a fatty cut like a chuck roast or a brisket, perhaps you would have had better results taking it to 130 to 140 and more of a medium rare?  I think most do that with sirloin roasts and round roasts.
