I recently acquired a 275 gallon oil tank pig roaster. It has 2 charcoal baskets in the bottom and a cooking grate. I have not had the chance to put fire to it. One potential concern I have is will i be able to cook at 225-250 with heat directly under the meat. My concern is that the heat...
I have 5 lbs of trimmings from some spares i did last weekend, and 3-5 lbs of trimming from some bellies, any thought as to what I could do with all of this aside from sausage. I was thinking I could braise it, or use it in a pork stew? Thoughts or recipe suggestions greatly appreciated.
I have heard nothing but great things about the A-MAZE-N line of products. I think i want one. But which one should I get. I currently have a WSM, along with a Weber smokey joe and a kettle. My thought is that I would use it to smoke cheese, cold smoke salmon and generate smoke on my grills...
Went to Costco and bought some of my favorites. 1 side of farm raised salmon, 3 racks of St. Louis style ribs.and 2 whole chickens.
Salmon was brined for 18 hours. Then dired for 6 hours. Chicken was brine for 24 hours and then rubbed herb butter under the skin, finally covered it with dry...
Have a KCBS comp coming up in a few weeks and did a practice run minus chicken, plus fatty and venison, why not if the smoker is hot might as well cook it. This was also the first attempt at burnt ends. I will say that they were the best bites of Q i have ever created. If you have never done...
My wife and I competed in our first KCBS comp yesterday in Richmond. Thanks to SMF and other reading I had a decent idea of what to expect going in to the event. Going in to the event I knew that my biggest issue that I only have one 18.5 WSM. We started cooking started at 11:00pm on Friday...

So I had to go to the grocery store after work and they had chicken thighs on sale so I bought a few packs. I got home and I thought why not throw some on right now. Boned them out, peeled off the skin, seasoned the thighs with homemade rub, put the skin back on, brushed with butter and...

I will be competing in my first contest on September 8th. This is a KCBS sanctioned event. I am comfortable with the four meats that I need to cook, but I have never done all four at one time/in the same day. My current plan for the next couple weeks is to start practicing as if I were in a...

3/4 cup paprika
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup salt

My wife is in grad school and she wanted to have some friends over before her spring formal and asked if I could smoke a pork butt. Of course I said yes. But as we all know its hard to fire up the smoker and not fill it to the top with other delicious treats. Along with a 10lb pork butt i did...
