    Storing rubs with brown sugar

    When brown sugar gets hard you can put a piece of bread with it to soften it back up. We used to do it with everything when I was a kid. Bag of tootsie rolls gets hard? Throw a piece of bread in there no problems.

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Awesome thoughts on the flavoring ideas. I always finish poultry in the oven under the broiler for 5 minutes if I want it crispy. If I had a grill I would finish it on that but I do not have one. The smoker was more important. The mes only goes to 275 so crispy it not an option. However the...

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    I put water in my water pan. Never thought to add something flavored. I usually try to save drippings for gravy depending on what I smoke. Would be great idea for things im not making gravy for though, thanks for the heads up.

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    I have the 30" bass pro shop model 20072010 and it is awesome! I have no problems with it at all. I have noticed that that I get lots of white thick smoke if I dump the chips into the pan so I just leave them in the feeder tube and get the nice thin blue smoke. I don't go through very many chips...

    Can I be less than a newbie?

    Welcome gramps. I am in Colorado and a rockies fan and when they played at hy corbitt field we went down to Tucson several years and went to tombstone every year. Then the rockies moved and the gunfight show we liked in tombstone burned down so no more. Nice people in that area though. Everyone...

    corned beef in 5 days?

    I do. I just don't want to go through all the trouble of brining and injecting if its not going to have the right flavor. I can wait and do it when I have 10 days its not that big of a deal. Just would love to ring in the new year with reubens and it doesn't make any sense to me to buy corned beef.

    Turkey Breast Roast - Christmas Eve Dinner

    I've gotten some of those butterball turkey breasts that are the same setup. I took the net off of mine before I cooked it and I was shocked that it was pieces and parts. Good meat though. Tasty. They have a Cajun one that I loaded up with butter and maple syrup that came out awesome. Totally...

    frozen salmon filets

    That is awesome. Post pics if you can since I've never done it before would love to see it in action! Besides that there's a rumor going around that if there's no pics it never happened....:biggrin:

    frozen salmon filets

    Yeah usually I am the same way. I prefer a little garlic salt and pepper and maybe a little rosemary at most and then pan fried or grilled. The wife likes the teriyaki/raspberry jalapeno jelly glaze then baked. I will try the cold smoke next time we get some.

    Pics are out of order and there's a shadow on the smoker one but football is starting. Go broncos! Have my garlic, onions, celery and carrots in a pan ready to catch delicious juices from the meat. Did a simple rub of "steak seasoning" garlic salt and sea salt. Put a little olive oil on the...
