    Am I about to make Jerky or am I just cooking steak low?

    I think an air fryer and dehydrator are the same thing. One is just really low temps and one turns things to a crisp if you walk away.

    Am I about to make Jerky or am I just cooking steak low?

    I can go lower temp if needed. Do you also crack your door at 165? I just looked and it will go down to 105

    Am I about to make Jerky or am I just cooking steak low?

    Well I sliced up some thinly cut Eye Round and I'm marinating it for 24 hours. Then I plan to dry it, put it on the wire rack, and use my air fryer's dehydration setting @ 180 degrees for how long...I don't know (help). This is my first time trying to make jerky so I didn't want to waste much...

    What tools does a beginner need after getting an offset smoker? (BUDGET minded)

    I live in South Carolina. Temp usually hovers around 40-30 on the cold side in winter when I would be smoking. Is that too cold to smoke?

    Please do not recommend $200+ probes, thermometers, etc... What I have is a cheap $100 Amazon offset smoker which is very thin walled. BUT I would like to emphasize on how impressed I have been so far with how it smokes! But with that being said I don't really have anything else other than...

    Smoking Meatballs...Anyone done it? What else should I do with it?

    I'm thinking good beef from Publix, some HOT Jimmy Dean sausage, but guys I really need some help on what seasoning I should use with them. I think they definitely should have some chopped up white onions in them. Thoughts?

    Smoking Meatballs...Anyone done it? What else should I do with it?

    Should I stop spritzing my butts?

    VINEGAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do also love me some mustard. But if I'm forced to have one it will always be vinegar based. Though I like it with some tomato to it and not just basically ACV and some pepper spices. That's just lazy in my eyes.

    How do you smoke bacon?

    So if you cold smoke the pork belly, how does the meat not go bad or gain bacteria? So correct me if I'm wrong but essentially I could just put a smoking tube full of pellets in my offset box, crack the vent by it, put a fan blowing air in it, open the chimney, and then just check on it...
