    need ABT help

    +1 on the maple bacon - it definitely adds some sweetness to offset the heat.  I like to keep it simple too and the hardest part for me was getting the cream cheese or whatever stuffing you are going to use inside the pepper.  I spoon the stuffing onto a piece of hard salami, fold it up like a...

    What makes a food-grade bucket a food-grade bucket?

    You can look on Craigs List for a restaraunt going out of business for some used NSF / Food Grade containers.  Locally in SoCal a food grade bucket or a large capacity container large enough to bring a turkey is about $20.00 without a lid. In the past I've just used a large S.S. stock pot.  You...

    Masterbuilt/SMF Contest - MES-40 Up for Grabs!!

    Finishing Sauce on Pork Butts?

    I typically do not add any sausce to the butt when I pull it.  I usually have a couple kinds of sauce in bowls next to the serving area so people can add their own sauce.  I tell people to try it without any sauce and then add if they think it needs it!

    Whole Hog ???

    Keep your spray bottles full of apple juice and be ready to spray as much as you can.  Wild hogs have very little fat content - when we shoot a wild boar the butcher has to add in domestic pig fat into the ground meat for patties or sausage.  With that low amount of natural fat, the pig may dry...

    Full Briscket-

    If I am cooking Brisket at home, I'll leave all the fat on / in unless it looks slimy / snotty.  It is way easier to trim the fat off the brisket when it is cooked and more fat in the cooking process isn't going to hurt. At comps, I will trim the thick vein of fat between the flat and the point...

    Bear, I agree that normally it isn't that big of a deal - until - you are at a comp and the turn in times are coming up!

    Yet another rib question...

    Greg, I usually put the extra bits in a 1/2 pan or wrap up in foil with a beer and some different rub you've wanted to try - or expand on your original rub.  Then snack on as done and you have a bit of an experiment to compare to the other ribs as they finish.

    first brisket on smoker - Q-view as it becomes available- finished

    Hey Celt, If the temp gets "stuck" - and this is the temp range it occurs at - you may have to either ramp up the heat temporarily to get it unstuck, or if still stuck after 1 - 1 1/2 hours go ahead and wrap it.  The temp will accelerate after you wrap it. It looks like you've only had it on...

    First Brisky on New Smoker!

    Your times are on target so far.  Meat didn't get stuck and after you foil it it won't have a chance.  Looking really good.
