Anyone here fly drones, looking to get one. Probably spend around $500. Thanks

Leaving the bitter cold here in SE south Dakota for a few days and heading to Galveston. Any recommendations on good BBQ and/or steak houses.

I like John Morrell cervelot and bought some of the seasoning from Owens BBQ. Taste is close but not quite where it needs to be so the next batch I am going to add some Fermento to give it a little tang which I think will get it pretty close. Made sausage many times but always have a lot of...

I have some summer sausage in the MES and had the internal temp up to 147 deg, had some projects going and let the damn MES run out of time.  The meat dropped 3-4 deg before I noticed and restarted the MES.  Now the internal temp is 142-145, so is that good since I have been running the MES...

Anyone have experience with one of these.   I know I can build a UDS for less money but time is somewhat of a factor right now.  Just curious, they are on sale for 199.00. Thanks Gary

Seen a post on here awhile back about Weber coming out with a smaller version of the WSM.  Not sure if anyone else posted about this yet but seen the 14.5 advertised in the paper today. Gary

Fired up the new Mini today and can not get the temps below 300 Deg.  Want to do a tri-tip later but 300+ seems to hot.  I have both bottom vents shut, just closed top vent about half, not sure if this will help.  Nothing special on the build, been watching the builds on here and copied. Here...

I cut up some pork butt and put in Pop's brine for 10 days, turned and massaged at least two time per day.  Did not do a fry test do to time but soaked in water for one hour, dried in front of a fan, then smoked in the MES for a total of around 17 hours,keeping the smoker temp around 75 deg the...

Finally have time to post on the new MES40 trial run with Jerky.  Had an the meat in the fridge thawing out so started the MES to preheat, got the old slicer set up and sliced to ¼ strips. Ended up with exactly 4 lbs. of meat, mixed up the marinade and into the new tumbler I got from Todd a...

Where I work you can't carry over vacation time so I always end up with some days to burn at the end of the year plus the days we were given for the holidays.  So whats a fella to do with all that time. 12-24 Double Smoked Ham 12-24 While ham was in the offset smoked a batch of Jerky in the...

Been wanting to make some pepperoni sticks for a while now and finally jumped in, was in Bass Pros right before the new year and bought some Lem seasoning and some casings to try.  Never made this before and was hoping my Jerky Gun would work to stuff the sticks. Went to the store to get some...

Teebob started a thread here a couple of weeks ago on a Rack of Pork he picked up, ironically I picked up the same cut and was going to ask the group what to do with it when I seen his post (http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/112566/smoking-a-rack-of-pork-qview-added).  I already had a chuckie...

I suck at shopping, I hate shopping, I have no patience for shopping, other people that are shopping that get in my way piss me off, so I have no idea why someone sent me this link for Black Friday ads other than to aggravate me but what the heck.  I was looking at Cabela's and they have some...

Was in the grocery store awhile back and they had a BOGO sale, picked up a couple of Chucks for the smoker.  This post will go from this picture to the end due to the fact that I screwed up taking pictures "AGAIN".  Turns out my old digital camera that finally died about a year ago had a small...

Used the offset for the first real smoke/cook today so that left the MES30 sitting in the porch pretty lonely.  Since I was out of jerky I stopped on the way home a few days ago and bought a pack of Round Roast. Got the old slicer out, I used this a lot when we first bought it in the early...

I love my MES30 but was looking to try and change up a bit.  Found this NB on Craigslist last spring and picked it up.  Don't have a picture of start, I took it apart as I was taking it out of the pickup. Already have the side box off, the couple I bought it from started to sand and paint but...

Was in the grocery store picking up some last minute items before Irene, found a Beef Round Eye of Round Roast that looked pretty good.  Cut it into 1/4 pieces with my cheapy little slicer and into brine for the night.  (Sorry no pics of prep) Saturday morning prepped the MES30 with Pecan and...
