Hey everyone! Its been a few years since I've been on here. The now ex wife was always on my @ss about taking pics of food and wasting time on this website. The good news is I don't have to deal with that anymore and I plan to be on here much more often.
So I used to make lots of belly bacon...
I've been smoking killer pulled pork for years but I recently decided to start doing some sliced. Two weeks ago I did one in my MES and it was amazing. I meant to take it off at an IT of 145 but I got sidetracked and it hit an IT of 152 before I got it out. After a short rest I sliced it for...
Hey everybody,
I've been happily using my MES 30 for a few years now for most of my pork butt/shoulder smokes and my only complaint is that I cant do too many at a time. I have an event coming up that will require 8-10 shoulders to be smoked up.
Can any of you MES 40 owners tell me how many...
This will be my first brisket and I'm not sure what I'm looking at. Is this just the flat or is the point included?

Thanks for looking.
So I started off with a beef ball tip roast. I rubbed it with L&P thick wooshy and Pappy's Choice Seasoning.
I get these in 17-22 lb bags at Cash n Carry for $2.58 lb which is cheaper than tri-tip and just as good(if not better). Each bag contains 4-5 roasts.
Threw in a ziplock and into the...
I have smoked lots of cheese in my MES 30 but until now I hadn't cold smoked on the ECB. When I use the AMNPS I like to light both ends to get a nice heavy smoke. The problem with that is the MES holds heat so well that I'm constantly trying to monitor temps and make sure I have plenty of ice to...
I haven't had time to post in a while but this is a smoke I did this weekend. I started out with four bone-in pork shoulders totalling just over 32 lbs. Measured out my ingredients for the rub and run each batch through a food processor to blend and get the lumps out.
Then I rubbed each with...
I read this thread by mneeley490, http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/122320/beef-clod-heart-aka-eye-of-chuck-w-q-view#post_816815, the other day and I'm dying to pick up a beef clod heart. My big question.........................Can this be taken to 195-205 and be pulled/shredded? Has anyone had...
It's been so long that I had to look around to figure out how to post a thread. I think I've got it now.
Started out with a 2 pack of shoulder/butts weighing just under 16 lbs.
Trimmed some of the fat off but not too much.
Coated each with mustard prior to adding the rub. Not sure if it...
Started with a 2 pack of butts. Butterflied and got the bone out.
Cured for 10 days using Morton's Sugar Cure. Soaked and rinsed then placed in pan. Placed pan under fan for a while to work on pellicle. While pellicle was forming I rubbed each piece with a very light coat of maple syrup...
I picked up a drum that was used for olive oil and I want/need to do a burn out(I think?) It is already cut in half and I plan to use it for a vertical rotisserie build.
Do I just fill it with wood and let it burn for several hours?
Then just scrub it out? I won't actually cook in it but...
Since my early 20's I loved to cross the San Diego border into Mexico or take the cruise ships to ensenada for authentic tacos al pastor. Due to the increase in violence and craziness there now, I no longer go for taco runs. This is causing serious withdrawals. I was wondering if you guys could...
I know turkey is no big woop but I had to show off the color of this bird.
Got a turkey half breast and removed the skin and cut it off the bone. IMO it makes for better slicing since I can cut across the grain.
Injected with a mix of lawry's and EVOO then rubbed the outside with the same...
I'm normally a BBB guy because the only bellies I ever find are frozen, have the rind on and seem to come from anorexic pigs. While visiting the in-laws in the midwest I came across a store that sold bellies. They were just as anorexic as the California bellies but they were fresh, $1 cheaper...
Ever since getting my recent shipment of pecan pellets from Todd at A-MAZE-N products, I've been trying them on everything I can think of. Tonight it was fish.
Started with 3lbs of boneless Tilapia filets. The next few steps are from a honey Tilapia recipe thats all over the internet.
Soaked...
I recently recieved my shipment of pecan pellets from Todd Johnson at A-MAZE-N products and I was itching to smoke something with em. It had been so long since I'd smoked with pecan that I couldn't decide what to try it on. After some suggestions from the helpful members here, I decided on...
I just got my pecan pellets from Todd at A-MAZE-N products. The last time I smoked with pecan was with wood chips before I had an AMNPS. I remember pecan being somewhat mellow and loving the smell, but I don't remember what meat(beef, chicken, fish, bacon, cheese) it gave the best flavor to. I...
After reading Da Mrs and SmokinAl's mozzarella threads, I just couldn't get the thought out of my mind. I used whole milk from the local grocery store and purchased the rennet tabs and the citric acid at a local store that models itself after the "whole foods" chain. I have also seen rennet at...
I'm smoking several lbs of almonds for different holiday gatherings and decided my usual honey maple almonds needed a kick in the pants. I consulted with Scarbelly and he set me on the path to nutty greatness. I followed his recipe from this wiki...
I've smoked lots of cheeses with my AMNPS including mozzarella, cheddar, provolone, pepper jack etc... All have turned out excellent.
My wife is Mexican and her family uses Mexican cheeses with many dishes, grilling, breakfast, you name it it goes in everything and it's delicious. I decided to...
