    Hi All, Bought a couple today, both about 1.5kg. Normally I'd braise them, but I'd like to try smoking them.  Any ideas about BBQ temp and what temp I should take them to? I'm also wondering if I should trim most of the fat Any advice welcome Cheers Robin

Started off with some mesquite chips for a...

Have been grilling for many years, but just got into smoking about 6 months ago. Don't have a dedicated smoker yet, been smoking on a Weber 57cm OTP with variable results. My...
