    stuffed smoked portabella shrooms w/qview

    Sounds good to me, erain!....I love portabellos....they're sort of a "meaty" mushroom, if you will. They stand up well to various types of cooking without turning to mush. Can't wait to see the qview! L8r, Eric

    3-1-2???

    I believe that's what that "junk" is...cartilage. I trimmed my first batch of spares and came up with the same thing....little bits of leftover cartilage on the ends of the bones. it's not really a big deal to me whether trimmed or not....last batch I just took a few stray bits and pieces off...

    Temp problem

    It might affect them a little.....I did 3 racks of spares yesterday and purposefully held the temp right around 200 for the first 3 hours...I feel it give better smoke penetration initially. Foiled for 2 hours and only bumped the temp up to about 230.....last hour same temp. They came out...

    Temp problem

    What about your thermometer....?? Are you sure it is accurate? A digital probe will be much closer than the factory provided thermo. Even a regular oven thermo will at least give you a comparison reading of your cabinet temp. With a good flame, I just can't imagine that you can't get past...

    interesting idea......might dry them more tho. I'm doing some untrimmed spares today....going 3-2-1 on 'em. Haven't really been pushing the temp for the first 3....200-225 is all.

    Smokey restuarant owners; any advice to another hopeful restuarant owner.

    Great advice, luv2camp....one thing I would add from my years in the restaurant biz.....and, I'll prolly catch h e l l for saying it....hire attractive, personable waitstaff and teach them to really take care of their customers. I know it's not PC to think like that, but, seriously....nobody...

    Excellent score!! I have access to a pretty good supply of wild cherry, too and LOVE the stuff!! Nothing better than sitting around the smoker with a cold one and catchin' a whiff of that sweet cherry smoke. L8r, Eric

    Tired of my ecb want NEW

    It's entirely possible that the gauge is off. A lot of the thermos that come from the factory with smokers are off by a few to well over 100 deg. Best bet is to check with a digital thermometer. If it is running hot, there are a couple threads on here where someone added a needle valve to...
