    Smoked some cheese last night in the LG 900 w/cold smoke cabinet - lessons learned

    I am a bit late in the season to cold smoke cheese here in CA as it's still "chilly" at night but warming up. Last year I used an Amaze N tube in the cold smoke cabinet. This year I wanted to use the hopper and generate smoke w/o the tube. I started in the late evening when it was 55 out and set...

    Thinking about turkey on the pellet grill this year...

    I've only smoked beef and pork on my LG900. I was thinking of making a brisket for turkey day this year since I'm really over oven baked ham/turkey, but thought perhaps this would be an opportune time to try and smoke a turkey. It's just the two of us so a whole turkey is a lot of meat, but...

    $9.98 for lumberjack pellets at dicks sporting goods

    half of my order arrived! LOL yes, I ordered 14 bags. 7 came from PHX distribution center... shipped separately... in their own box. The others from random stores. I can't imagine how much money they lost.

    $9.98 for lumberjack pellets at dicks sporting goods

    I came here to post this but you beat me to it. $10 is a solid deal for SoCal. Shipped too. Good thing I bought a shed this summer! Apologies in advance to the UPS / FedEx guy.

    Do I need to burn off pork belly fat?

    There was plenty of grease in the bucket. Nonetheless, I scraped and wiped up at much as possible and now burning at 600 degrees!

    Do I need to burn off pork belly fat?

    I made some pork belly strips today. I turned off the LG900 when they reached temp as I had to leave for an appointment. The grill is now cool but am wondering if I should heat it up to high temp to burn off the grease fat from the pork belly. I've never really had any wet looking grease so far...

    First go at pork belly strips

    Today I did my first pork belly strips smoke. They're in the fridge now cooling getting ready for a few to get seared for dinner. Smells great so far!

    Where can I get the best price on LumberJack Pellets?

    These pellets aren’t easy to find in my area, but I found a small mom and pop that carries them regularly. $20 for 20lb and $35 for 40lb. Definitely not cheap but picked up a few bags to try them out.

    Tomahawk from Costco

    I cooked a 2lb tomahawk today. Started at 180 for about 90m, them upped the temp at it was 7pm and I was hungry. Pulled at 126 and seared for about 90 seconds in each side. Came out to a medium in the center which is a bit too done than I prefer but there’s always next time.

    Grill Eye Pro

    what problems did you have?

    wireless thermometer

    How do you like it? Costco has the grilleye plus for $89. I have the Smoke and the wireless gateway but it’s clunky and honestly outdated. The Grilleye probes will measure (572F) and withstand (716F) higher temps than the smoke which would be great for steaks.

    Cheese packaging expanding

    I've never really had cheese packaging expand unless it was mixed with something such as the Merlot & Tequila cheese sold at Costco. All I can think of is the peppers going bad. Generally, cheese just ages and may taste bad or mold but not cause the packaging to expand.

    Cheese packaging expanding

    Yes, stored in the fridge at 35 or so. Looks like I’ll toss it. Thanks!

    Cheese packaging expanding

    I bought this 3 alarm cheese at Sam’s last year. The packaging is expanding. If this was meat, I’d toss it. I’m guessing this is caused by bacteria since it has peppers mixed with the cheese. Should I toss it?

    I think I ruined a batch today...
