    Cure...adding seasonings

    I'm sorry guys....I should have stated that I am looking to find out how much salt and sugar to add when making CB. I don't really have a recipe....I was just going by the directions on the package of TQ. I will see if I can find that post...thanks.

    Cure...adding seasonings

    I have made CB several times using Morton's TQ. I gave all my TQ to my Pops so he could try making some bacon. I have some #1 cure, and I know how much of that to use....but how much salt and sugar should I add to it? Thanks!

    Drip pan in the Drum?

    Thanks HW. Doesn't the drip pan get get hot enough to burn the fat with no water? I was going to try using the drip pan from the GOSM with a little bit of water in it.

    Drip pan in the Drum?

    I am going to try it...was just wondering if any one else uses one to keep the fat away from the fire. After seeing how moist and tender my ribs were....I am looking forward to trying some butts or a shoulder soon.

    Drip pan in the Drum?

    It just seems to me that the the flavor of the burned off fat drippings overpowers the the true flavor of the charcoal and wood smoke. And that's cool if most drum users like it...it just may not be for me. I used to have a older (about 11 yrs ago) New Braunfels horizontal grill...no side...

    Drip pan in the Drum?

    Anybody use one in their drum? I did my first cook on the drum this weekend...and while I was really impressed with the results....the extra "grilled liked" flavor from the juices dripping onto the hot coals was a bit more than I expected. I'm just wondering if I should try a drip pan of some...

    Pork Shoulder

    Great how-to! And I'm for sure gonna try that finishing sauce! I make one close to that, but I never thought of Guinness in it. Brilliant!

    First run on the Drum....with Qview

    The ball valve regulates the air flow. I have three 3/4" intake ports on the bottom of the smoker. Two of them have threaded plugs, and the third has the valve. On yesterdays smoke, I had one plug removed, and the ball valve was open a bit to maintain the 220-250 temps.

    First run on the Drum....with Qview

    So I finally got to use my drum this weekend. For the last month or so, every time I was gonna smoke something, the wife would invite people over for Q. I don't like cooking on a new smoker for company. It was just two of us yesterday...so out came the drum. I was pretty lucky...I got most of...

    Northern Grinder plate Q

    Thanks Piker. I see that ButherPacker.com has 1/2" and 3/4" plates for the #12 grinder. The 3/4" would be great for doing chili and what not. Would save me alot of time that I usually spend hand cutting chuck roasts into 3/4" cubes.

    Northern Grinder plate Q

    I just ordered the Northern #12 grinder, and I can't seem to find out exactly what size the plates are. They just just list them as coarse, medium and fine. I'm guessing they are something like 1/4" , 5/16", and 3/8" ? If anybody knows for sure what size they are....I'd appreciate it! I'm...

    Grinder question

    I ended up ordering the Northern grinder today. I talked to my buddy about borrowing his KA grinder....he is missing the coarse plate for it. So instead of screwing around...I just got the Northern! Now that I have a 14cf freezer coming....I figure I might as well do up some larger batches of...
