    Garlic brined pulled pork tacos (Q-view)

    This weekend I went all out. I made a pulled pork shoulder with a garlic brine from The Fatted Calf's cookbook:  I have made this recipe several times, but this was the first time I used it to make tacos. And let me tell you, you'll never want to eat regular tacos again! I brined the shoulder...

    First mozzarella cheese smoke

    Wow, I mean WOW. It's so much better than store bought! I recently bought an AMNPS for cold smoking and I fired it up for a test on Easter weekend. I am very satisfied with the results! I probably got lucky, but I only left the cheese out to mellow overnight and it tasted amazing. The...

    proper temp for smoking ribs

This was mostly because I didn't know how to properly set up my ECB nor did I actively measure the temperature, which I'm sure in many cases was either way to hot or way too cold.

    ribs: brining and store bought "enhanced" question

    I just had a revelation. My wife was telling me that she doesn't like how sometimes the smoker makes the food taste like ham... And I promised her that it was not the smoker that was doing it and that the pink color was just from the smoke. However, I came to realize that not all ribs are...

    Hello from Illinois!

    Hello Everyone! I am new to the smoking world, but my dad has been using the same offset smoker for a good 15+ years with some amazing results over the years. I used to own a vertical water smoker. But because I got the cheapest model, it didn't have a sealed underside and the draft caused me...
