    Smoking lake trout

    I have a trip planned to Lake Superior for some Lake Trout fishing this week. I'm guessing I'll be coming home with some fish. I'd like to smoke them in my Yoder. What's a good easy brine, and then temp for the smoker and meat I should go with?

    Long(er) range meat thermometer

    So I currently have an ET-732 and It doesn't work if my smoker is in the garage and I'm in the house. (40-50ft away). I'm VERY disappointed in the unit and would like to use a different brand.

    Tips for first pork shoulder?

    Any downsides to pellet smokers?

    So I currently use a Masterbuilt chip smoker and stopped by my local BBQ shop. I asked about some smokers he had and was interested in a pellet smoker, the Yoda YS480 or YS640. He told me the smoke profile isn't as strong but you can cook lower or add a smoke tube (I think that's what he called...

    New guy, question on recipes, books, rubs etc.

    So I recently bought a Masterbuilt electric smoker, used it twice and love it. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a book that has cook temp, rub recipes, brine recipes, mop recipes, cook times etc for various types of smoked meats. I know this forum has a plethora of information, but I...
