    I'm Back!

    Dan - good to hear you're safe. Have had to deal with rough weather in my recent past (tornadoes) and understand... completely. Hang in there, soon you'll be looking back on all of this!

    first three racks

    Tyler - welcome to the obsession... you (and your brother) will soon buy stuff to tweak out your smoker, books, other cooking accessories... it's all good! Good to see you on the SMF... lots to be learned here, lots of good people. Any report on the 3 racks of ribs yet?

    Smokin' for the in-laws

    Here's the report - in-laws loved ev-er-y-thing... :::whew!::: Sent leftovers home with BIL, SIL, and FIL... when they found out homemade BBQ sauce was available in jars.... there was almost a scuffle. Dutch's beans were a total hit... SIL said something to her mom about "you need to...

    Walmart wood, can't get it to smoke?

    Things might be different at Wally-World if ol' Sam was still around - it's what his kids did with the biz after he died that's ruined that whole thing... have heard that repeatedly from too many people who worked for WM Before and After. My first bag of hickory chunks was from WM, aside from...

    Smokin' for the in-laws

    Thanks y'all!! I'll be working on part two of this here in a little while... Dutch's beans (my first time with those), two plain fatties, and one stuffed with onion, cheese, pepperoni, and two cheeses. This is the first time the in-laws have been over for any kind of meal, so keep your...

    Yesterdays Q-View (My First)

    Nice job! You're telling the truth - it's so hard to NOT eat just a little when doing prep the day before. I've still got one more butt to pull this morning, but the one I pulled last night - we HAD to have a sammich... just one... Do you pull with your hands, forks or ?

    My first smoke with qview

    Talk about a perfect pair - a smoker and a vacuum sealer. You'll enjoy both, and the sealer for so many things you haven't even thought of yet. Which sealer did you get? The SMF prepared me for my first plateau too... with all the seasoned advice that one needs to know! Make sure you have...

    Smokin' for the in-laws

    Me and the hubby decided we would handle grub for the 4th for the in-laws (his parents and family), so the smoker was a natural (and the only!) solutuon for us. They're coming over on the 5th (only day everyone is off), this gave me a day to cook ahead of time. I prepped two small boneless...

    Pulled Pork Reheat ???

    Good question... I've done 2 butts today and will be feeding in-laws tomorrow... thinking about just leaving them in the cooler all night; and pull them tomorrow when it's about time. Placed them in a small cooler about 3 hours ago and the temp is still hot when I reach in... will check in a...

    MY version of Dingles Shrimp

    That looks awesome... guess shrimp will go on my list to do as well. If you used something else other than what some folks have mentioned as marinade - please share? Thanks, dude!

    First run at smoking meat

    Save the homebrew! Water works just as well in the pan, reading up on here will tell ya most people think the same... Guess a stout would smell good after simmering for a while... but think you'll enjoy it more in a pint glass or in a mop for meats. Isn't the 'first bark' experience...
