    Ash Trey Flavor on my food?

    Ya, I can tell a huge difference in some woods. Mesquite to me has a very sweet distinct flavor vs Hickory. Also i will never forget the first time I tasted something smoked with blackjack oak.

    Ash Trey Flavor on my food?

    I just realized I forgot to post the picture of my Salmon. Johnmeyer I am using hickory. I've tried other woods like apple and cherry and I do like them. Maybe I will order some other pellet flavors as well.

    Ash Trey Flavor on my food?

    Hi gang, here is the update. I did the mailbox mod to my smoker. I attempted to use the AMNTS filling it only half way, but I had trouble keeping it lit. I think maybe it would have worked had I played with it a while, but lacking time to fool with it I just filled it up as normal. I...

    Hi daricksta, Mostly I smoke salmon. I've done a tri-tip also. The tri-tip turned out ok, I think mostly because it was a hot smoke and fairly short. The salmon being a relatively cold (I end at about 140F IT). A couple of days ago I did that mailbox mod which eliminated my creosote...

    Ash Trey Flavor on my food?

    Yes, basically I am. The salmon starts out very low, and ends at about 200F. The seasonings it was all cold accept for about 2 hours at 350. I've not tried any all hot yet, but I think you are on to something. I've been reading more about creosote condensing and it seems like most...

    Hi all, Thanks for the replies. I am confused about something though. Why is this appearing in a separate thread. I see in the first post there is an exact quote from my thread here? https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/ash-trey-flavor-on-my-food.274896/ Is this like a glitch or something?

    Ash Trey Flavor on my food?

    Hi everyone, I am pretty new to smoking, but I'm having a great time so far (mostly). One problem I keep having though is that nasty ash trey flavor on my food. I am using a Masterbuilt electric smoker, but not with the chip trey. I have a knock off of the amazin smoke tube, but I buy the...

    This year's deer sausage (lots of photos)

    Hi Smokindeer, That looks wonderful.    Does adding cheese to a sausage like that effect the length of time it can be stored?    How do you store the rolls once they are vacuum sealed?  Freezer, or can the be put in dry storage?
