Well its been quite some time since I've been on here, kinda fell out of smoking getting tired of my MES40 not working properly.  I've now the owner of a GMG DB and am smoking some fresh yellow tail for the family.  I found a good brine/recipe on this forum but I haven't seen whether the skin...

Two 10# HoneySuckle turkey's. These were awesome size and had no legs on them which was perfect as they get over done most the time anyway. Did a 24hr water brine on both, then did a buttermilk brine for 24hrs as well. Brine was Todd's recipe but using my rub. Followed to a T. After brined, I...

I've tried a "Fine Cut" apple chips/dust a handful of times and no matter what I mix it with, it just doesn't burn.  I've tried all the tricks and done all the modifications to my MES. I've never had problems with other woods either.  I have a MES40 and AMNPS.  I smoked a butt the other day and...

Might be a bit "overboard" as my wife would say but what does she know....lol. Take russets, peel and quarter. Then COLD smoke them, and go about the normal way. Will boiling them take the smoke out ya think? I guess you could cold smoke them after you boil them but don't want them to dry out...

Can we get a Sticky for mods that are done to the MES30/40.  I want to make the best out of my MES40 and instead of searching every thread for mods, why not a central location?  I searched for MES mods and just get the generalized mods like wiring, etc.  Is there one already that I can't find? ...

Starting a little 6lb'r tonight.  Came up with my own dry rub and this is the first time I'm using my own so we can experiment from here.  For some reason I always go over board and had to stop myself from adding Capt' Morgan Spiced Rum to the injection.  So here goes: Dry Rub: 3TBSP Paprika...

Pulled another over nighter thanks to the Maverick.  Dry rubbed it with a Sweet & Savory dry rub, let it soak in saran wrap over night and put her on the smoker about 16hrs ago.  Used the AMNPS filled with Hickory.  Temps are sitting at 196* right now and slowly climbing.  On a side note, last...

Received my Mav ET732 a couple weeks ago and finally got to use it last night.  Got some friends coming into town and decided at the last second to do a shoulder over night.  Tried smoking with Oak and Bourbon barrel but it wasn't putting out smoke like I wanted it to so I nixed that and...

So, I have a mechanical gauge and the MES probe in my Pork butt.  MES Probe reads 189* Mechanical Gauge reads *170 6.7lb butt has been in for 9 hours so far.  Which should I go by.  FYI, I purchased a ET732 today....lol

So after last weeks Chipotle ABT's and Habenero Cheese ABT's, I decided to do it up again this weekend as the Butt is smoking. Did Japs, gutted, devained.  Took half the amount of guts/seeds and threw them in a processor, added about 3 cloves of garlic and minced it up.  Added a block of cream...

I have another free weekend and decided earlier in the week to do a butt this weekend.  Well I purchased a 6.7lb butt yesterday and decided to have it for lunch today.  Last night I slathered it up with mustard and an Applewood dry rub, saran wrapped it and put her back to sleep for a few...

My first smoke was going to be an easy cooked/cured ham, well my Saturday free'd up and had the wife pick up some beef ribs.  I've been researching the best ways to do these and will stick with the 3-2-1 method.  My question is whether to soak or just rub or both.  Also I read bad reviews on the...
