    Really like Tabasco Smoked Chipotle..

    Yes, I have and use it as well. The Bufalo is quite a bit thicker, and has more of the fruit flavor of the pepper as well as the chipotle taste.

    Smoked carnitas

    I use the following, all ground together in a paste, with 2 lb. of butt ground in bite sized chunks. I coat all the chunks and let them marinate overnight, then into a screaming cast iron dutch oven. As they start to brown, I put in about 1/4 cup milk. The milk helps the browning and the...

    Is this a new product for Maverick?

    Looks promising... but I can't see the intended audience need a list meat temps printed on it! One major drawback - I bet it isn't available in hyper-accurate neon green!

    Charcuterie

    Mine arrived all the way from the Amazon yesterday! I spent the evening reading it cover to cover. As most books of this type, I see where there is much there I want to try, and some I won't. I can't see how it's a bad choice to have in the collection, though!

    the 4 types of american bbq

    I have eanten and enjoyed all of these variations (and more) on BBQ meals. I seem to alweasy fall back on the idea that BBQ is smoked meat, and so I like to taste all the subtle nuances present in the meat. Now don't get em wrong, there are some really tasty sauces out there, but meat +...

    Can You Be?

    POGO 1995 - 2010 I've had worse days in my life, but I can't recall when the last one was that was worse than today. Our beloved Keeshond, Pogo, has been having serious problems the last several months. He had lost most of his hearing, could not see for the large cataracts in his eyes, and...

    Stablizing temps on WSM

    Well said, Dude. After reading about all the door issues, the first thing I did with mine was to keep working at re-curving the aluminum until it sealed just right. Now hardly ANY smoke comes out - you have to be lucky to catch some. Just work it until the contour matches.

    Canned BBQ'd Pork and Q-tons

    Just beautiful Swine Rangoons! For some time now I have been watching for a decent price on a large pressure canner - can't do low acid or proteins without one. But once again, you have beaten me to the punch. Once I find one, my first runs will probably be enchiladas, tamales and chili. You...

    Mes Worth Fixing?

    MES - Need More Smoke

    I'm suspicious of the "black wood chips". I'd try some true chips cut from wood, which are usually some shade of brown. Use chips or little chunks, not sawdust or shavings, and put maybe 1 charcoal briquette in there tio keep them lit if your element cycles off. Soaking the wood in advance...
