    Steady Temp due to welding blanket issue

    What a great day for smoke'n a brisket in the winter wonderland of Minnesota. This year I decided to invest in a welding blanket to help get control of the temp swings as I believe the only time I can't smoke is when I am gone. So here is the question I am hoping I can get some feedback from...

    Candied sliced jalapenos

    Thank you for the information. I want to try this and see if the sweetness remains. Right now, they are sweet for about 4 seconds and then all of a sudden the heat hits. They are not crisp. Will try this weekend

    A little bacon wrapped stuffed sweet peppers

    I started cooking on the top under a high heat and then reduced the temp and flipped them to cook until done. Bacon on top crisped up and held everything in and when I flipped it the rest cooked just fine.

    Candied sliced jalapenos

    Saw this on the internet the other day and decided I should try this. The sauce that these cook in was very sweet with a sudden hit of heat that I was worried it would be too hot for the individual jalapenos. Once they cooled down the initial flavor is sweet followed by a very nice jalapeno mild...

    Mistaking made trimming the brisket

    Tried cooking risk it again tonight and made a mistake and trimmed too much of the fat cap off so it did not protect the meat as much as I was hoping and got a little bit too hard and crusty on the bottom. Tasted great and did not break when I did a bend test on a slice. Also removed a little to...

    Being it was a beautiful day out this morning I decided to fire up the smoker. Had a point of a brisket that I was going to just do burnt end with but decided a full smoke and slices would be just as well.

    Smoked ribs question

    Yesterday I did a sweet rub on a rack of ribs. When done the ribs were tender, almost fall off the bone and the crust on top was very nice but it was not a dark caramelized appearance. The fat I left on it rendered very nicely. The paprika I didn't think was that heavy but the ribs have a real...

    Brisket with an issue

    During the cook, no. but when I pulled it, I wrap it in foil and place it in a cooler for the rest. Since I started to do this, it seems to help with moisture retention and the meat does not become mushy.

    Brisket with an issue

    So I decided since it was the first time since the lockdowns had opened up that I would have a brisket for the fmaily and a couple friends. Granted eating on the deck was perfect and the flavor of the rub was much better than before for the brisket, I made a mistake. Should have cooked it fat...
