    40-60 lbs of pork belly due to arrive....

    Well, shoot! Supplier called this morning and said the wrong item came in! Looks like I'm back to waiting a while longer. Might have to get started on some andouille in the mean time.

    40-60 lbs of pork belly due to arrive....

    Hadn't given the glue a thought. Other nasties in there as well. Think I'll hold off for a while until I make something more permanent. In the mean time, I'll use the chief I guess. I'll be using Hickory for some of the bacon, and apple as well, since I have several fruit trees in the yard...

    40-60 lbs of pork belly due to arrive....

    ...in 2 days! This will be our first go at this bacon. I've been reading all I can find, and have the book "Charcuterie" and will most likely go with their recommendations at least on 10 or so lbs of it. As a beginner, what should I be wary of? I can always use one of the electric Big Chiefs...

Wanted a simple smoked snack for the Holiday meal, so I went for the Chex party mix. 9 cups mixed Chex cereals (Corn, rice, wheat) 2-3 cups dry roasted peanuts 1tsp garlic powder 1tsp onion powder 1/2tsp cayenne 1tbs...

    pork belly

    You might want to check with your favorite restaurant. I exhausted all the grocery stores here and even a butcher shop, no luck. Then I was talking with a good friend who is a local Chef here, and though to ask him about it. He typed in his computer and about 15 seconds later he told me sure, no...

    Greetings from Idaho

    Well I figured since we're having a heat wave here in Lewiston (28f) I figured, what the heck, so I marinated a london broil (top round roast) all night and in the smoker she goes today! I'll hide behind the slider and peer out at the thermometer from time to time! Maybe a nice warm Bourbon to...

    London Broil (Top Round Roast) 1st smoke

    Well I'm certainly up for the low & slow method. What the heck, I've got the time today, and I wanted to try something different anyways, so why not. Like I said, I usually do these on the grill and after reading http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...dium+rare+temp I figured they didn't need...

    Greetings from Idaho

    Thanks to all for the warm welcome! Use my golf clubs as skewers? NOOOOO!! Of course, if I had as much invested in smokers as I do clubs, I could go commercial!! However, the addiction is taking hold and this site can be dangerous I think. After doing some perusing through the files here, I...

    Greetings from Idaho

    Hello all. This looks like a great place to hang out and smoke! I use a Charbroil side box, a couple Little Chiefs and a couple big Chiefs. Not too experienced, but no failures so far! I love making venison jerky, smoked salmon, brisket, and am having success with turkeys. Did a chicken a...
