I use play sand instead of water in my propane smoker. Two reasons, I have an AMAZE-N-Smoker that i use to generate my smoke, water in the pan would make it go out. The other reason is that water doesn't add moisture or flavor to the meat. I add flavor and moisture to the meat through rubs...
Just one of my many successful bird hunting trips
And one more towards the end of the season.
It was a good year for the duck hunting! Sad to see it go but looking forward to my first real turkey hunt.
No qview yet but I have some exciting projects coming up when I process the Elk and...
I wouldn't assume you have a 50* temp difference. If you can get a longer thermo that would help you figure out what your drum is running at. I run my digital thermo which is approx an 8" probe, I run my drum smoker so that the lower grate is at 250* (ish).
I am confused at your question #4...
My brother and I shot a muley a couple of years ago, when we got home we started drinking beer and fired up the UDS, carved out the TL's, prepped with some of Jeffs rub, smoked it for about 2 hours (it was still rare to med rare on the small end) OMG it was so good, no bacon needed IMO.
No need to keep things moist in the smoker, unless you are making sausage, it it important to keep the casings moist during the smoking process. If you want to mist while you are smoking, add some juice, I like apple for chicken and pork. It will sort of carmelize and add to the flavor of the meat.
Wow, sorry about the late response, perhaps this should have been posted in the wild game section also. I have made venison pastrami and canadian bacon. Both are really easy. Just follow the directions on the Mortins Tender quick bag for curing. You can add spices etc. Here is a link to cowgirls...
Tony,
When you use cure, the 40-140 rule is no longer relevant. I use these instructions for making sausage because I got my start using their sausage kits. It works every time. Yes you won't ever be able to set it and forget it with sausage, I think there is too much at stake/to lose. So I am...
Well the hunt was successful and I was able to bring home about 120 LBS of primo cow elk meat, my first elk. I plan on turning it into some steaks, roasts, and burger. But I would like to make a portion of it into some breakfast sausage, but I haven't made a good breakfast sausage yet so I...
