    Need help with Rabbit

    I would think drapping some bacon over it would help keep it from drying out. If you do end up drying it out you'll have to change your nick name to "Hare Drier" Sorry.

    Help with a new Great Outdoors Smokey Mountain smoker.

    I just use one of those grill mats and hose it off now and again. Come to think of it it really doesn't do that anymore so I'm thinking whatever holes the grease was leaking thru must of clogged up. So to me it sounds like your not smoking enough!

    Pterodactyl deviled eggs

    Hmm. I've always made smoked deviled eggs using peeled hard boiled eggs. Hit em with smoke for about 1/2 hour and cool. I'm a little surprised that any smoke go thru the shell.

    Get you a copy of Reytek Kutas - Great Sausage Recipes and Meat Curing/4th Edition and read up before you get started. Then take on a small batch of some kind of fresh sausage(breakfast links, Italian, etc)to get yourself familiar with some of the processes & equipment.

    Freezing Ribs

    Ribs are excellent re-heated. Assuming you use the 3-2-1 method or a variation, do the 3-2 on the smoker, freeze, then slowly reheat and sauce on the grill.

    smoked deer meat loaf?

    IMO, ground pork is a better additive for texture and flavor.

    Smoking a pig

    I agree with the others that a whole pig for just a few people doesn't make sense especailly if your not going to have your equipment with you. But if your determined then send cowgirl a pm and ask about it, she has a ton of experience with roasting whole pigs including setting up a temp pit.
