    OK Joe Highland Horizontal versus Brinkmann Trailmaster Vertical Offset Smokers

    Once you seal the firebox temps will stablize. I even drilled a couple extra drain hole in the cook chamber for drainage since mine stay outside. Split the box and seal it, as it is a big deal. The plenum leaving and the top and bottom halves. Stove cement or 1000-1200 degree safe material is...

    Boudain??

    Its entirely possible for St Peter to ask me if I have unfinished wants and having sampled boudin would make me move on through those pearly gates.

    Ribs in Beer?

    Lol people laugh at me for enjoying Budweiser. I went to Europe once, and while I enjoyed that local vintage, I hopped on the beer train after a while. I couldnt buy a Budweiser. I could buy a "Bud" in the same exact container, but it didnt say Budweiser. I asked why it said "Bud" instead. The...

    Ribs in Beer?

    Try Sam Adams beer. If you cook with hops, the balance is important.

    Sausage Baked Beans

    Thanks. I will work it out some more. They were awesome, and a crusty bake in a smoker wouldnt hurt them.

    Sausage Baked Beans

    I smoked ribs and pinapple with brown sugar and cinnamon for the Bama game and needed something else to go with it because neighbors were coming over. I could have eaten ribs and watched ball, but hey, the wife called it. So the baked beans went like this, and I would make one adjustment next...

    Those Who Know Upgrades

    What volume is your smoker? Its physical dimension of the cook chamber? Construction material thickness?

    Smoked Venison Backstrap

    The tenderloin is the most amazing thing. Not gamey, hit it with SPOG and Olive Oil and grill it. Very Unique.

    Freezing Propane Tanks?

    I think your device is not rated to match your tank. You probably need a bigger tank.

    Wife doesn't like smoked food

    My wife is not a big meat eater, and can eat just pasta and veggies. Strongly flavored or hot peppered meats arent her favorite, and fatty meats just dont agree with her. Interestingly, my mother, who has a biochemistry back ground, tells me the blood chemistry/ blood type of a person is...

    problems with smokebox mod on new MES30... too much smoke I think

    We used to cold smoke salmon with an electric eye that had a temperature control. Perhaps you could rig a rheostat of some sort to reduce the burn of your wood?

    Salt cod recipe anyone?

    My wife makes a cod with drawn butter sauce, which has eggs also. Its served over mashed potatoes and usually a veggie and salad. Its amazingly good.

    Birthday Wild Pork Ribs

    Been there myself. If you have too much smoke, foil first for an hour at least to 1.5 hours. This will soften the collagen and meat cant take as much smoke after 140 degrees. Unfoil, and coast the meat to finish by watching the temp and the water content of the meat. This is easier with a water...

    isn't the species of salmon important?

    I "catch" walmart coho salmon. An interesting thing about their massively efficient distribution system is that the fish is flash frozen fresh when caught. I have been impressed. On the other side of the coin I saw chum for sale there for the first time in my life. It freaked me out. I have...

    isn't the species of salmon important?

    Small point...chum is dog salmon. A fatty fishy tasting creature good for feeding sled dogs aftet you air dry the split fish. That is if you are up north and have dry arctic air...down south use a dehydrator. http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/static/regulations/fishregulations/PDFs/pdfs/salmonID.pdf
