Bacon refreeze ?
I'm on day 7 of using the buckboard bacon cure on a nice butt. Over the weekend, I thought I would smoke a couple of butts for a get together that is coming up. I had the butt temps to 130 when the MES died! I think the heating element went out. Finished the butts in the oven. They are still...- bdlight4

First Butt smoke
I thought I would go all out and do two butts for my first time. I used Meowey's recipe along with Jeff's rub. All I can say WOW. Neighbors were walking over to see what I was smoking. How can I hide the smoke smell? My plan of leftovers didn't work. I'm going to try 4 butts this weekend along... -

Had to order Jeff's sauce and rub
Call me a follower, but with all the positive discussion about Jeff's sauce, I had to order it. Mixed up a batch while the loin was in the MES. This stuff is awesome! I found myself licking the spoon before I even put it on the loin. I'm thinking about trying it on my eggs tomorrow.- bdlight4

First smoke
I placed my pork loin in the MES at 3:10 and at 5:55 the alarm went off at 150 degrees. I removed it and covered it for about 15 minutes. I will have to say that everyones input made this the best pork loin I have had so far. I don't know what I would do to improve it. So, I need to think of... -
Greetings from South Dakota
I'm new to this smoking thing. I just purchased a MES, grinder, and meat mixer to process my own venison. Was looking for recipes when I came accross your site. I would have to say I'm excited to get started. I'm heading to Wally World in an hour or so to purchase a pork loin for the smoker...
