    smoked cocktails

    Had an old fashioned in a glass smoked with tobacco once. It was delicious, but I could easily see messing it up and ruining the cocktail.

    JJ's Tangy Pulled Pork Finishing Sauce

    Summer Beer

    I like chelada's in the summer: mexican beer over ice with lots of lime juice and a salted rim. The ice melts down enough that it almost seems hydrating.

    Made my first pizza in four years.

    Looks great. Which Masterbuilt do you have? And what temp did you run at? Pre-heat the stone? If so, for how long?

    Looks delicious. Curious about the meatball cooking temps and time?

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    Most of the stories I've heard are that replacing the hopper lid gasket with a lava lock or similar end up making the hopper lid leak more. Because of these stories, I haven't tried it, though I do get a little leakage from the hopper lid. I'm actually more interested in anyone who has put a...

    First time running the Masterbuilt 1050 Overnight -- Pork Shoulder smoke and a good lesson learned.

    That sounds great. Will do. Thanks for the info. I hope to give a shot soon.

    First time running the Masterbuilt 1050 Overnight -- Pork Shoulder smoke and a good lesson learned.

    Your set up sounds like the plan I want to try. However, still more questions: Does the split burn faster or slower than the charcoal? Does it usually last the entire cook for a pork butt (or at least until you wrap)? Any problems maintaining temps? Thanks

    To pan or not to pan, that is the question

    First time running the Masterbuilt 1050 Overnight -- Pork Shoulder smoke and a good lesson learned.

    Do you know if using the Hickory split contributed to the bridge? Possibly fell sideways and clogged the chute? Never used a full split in my MB gravity and was wondering how it performs.

    Smoked and Seared Leg of Lamb

    Thanks ChuxPick. One of my favorite features of the MB Gravity smokers is the ability to sear after cooking low and slow. Goes from 225 to 650 in about 5 min.

    Smoked and Seared Leg of Lamb

    Thanks Zippy. Thanks Brian. My wife and I love lamb, so I suggest you should try it. It has a gamey flavor, but we really like that about it and the smoke complimented it well. Thanks Jim. Thanks Ray. Thanks Smokerjim Thanks Thirdeye. That's a beautiful looking spread you got...

    Smoked and Seared Leg of Lamb

    The wife and I love lamb, but never had it smoked, so I decided to smoke and sear a small bone in leg roast in the MB Gravity 800. First, marinated the roast for about 6 hours in a paste of garlic and fresh herbs from the garden: Then onto the pit. Smoked it at 225 using Royal Oak...

    Question - Gravity Smoker Configuration for Rib Smokes - Water Pan or No?

    I've only done ribs a couple of times in my Gravity 800. The first time was without a pan, the second with a pan. The first time the ribs got dried out, however, that was probably more due to cooking longer than I should have. I will probably go with a water pan for most cooks going forward...

    BBQ Bacon Smash Burgers

    Thanks, SmokinVol. Never did smashburgers until they became a food trend in the past couple of years. They're so good. I don't think this trend will go away soon.

    Mommy's Day Grilled Porterhouse (New Grate)

    Looks great, Bear. That's exactly how I like my porterhouse: rare side of medium rare edge to edge. And the peach crumb looks incredible. Save me a slice of that. Bird.
