The wife surprised me today by bringing me home my first pellet smoker! Yea, she is a keeper.. I have been using a masterbuilt propane smoker up until now, with a cast iron pan and wood chunks. I notice a big difference in smoke with the pellet one. Hardly seems to be any at all, especially...
Hey Everyone!
Does anyone know where I can order wood chunks, delivered to Canada? Ill we have up here in the great white north is Pine, Spruce and Poplar.. All the local stores just have wood chips that burn up too quickly.
Thanks in advance
Hey Guys,
Just after Christmas, rib roasts were on sale for 50% off at the local grocer, so we picked a couple up. Looked in my freezer the other day, and totally forgot I had one lol. This would be my first time smoking beef. Have done lots of chicken and pork, but was a bit leery about...
Hey Guys,
Sounds like we are having a company potluck on Friday for lunch. i was thinking that I will smoke a pork loin and slice it into thin slices for sandwiches. Something easy and hard to screw up, as I am working and wont have the time to attend to an all night smoke or anything like...
I have a question about ham. We got a pig butchered at the local butcher a while ago, and there were some hams wrapped up in butcher paper. They don't look like they are pre-cooked or smoked, just cured as it is pink. Looks like a picnic ham. If it is only cured (to get the pink color) how...
Hey All,
Question. I am going to do a brisket soon, but my propane smoker is on the smaller side for being able to put it on a rack. I have two options. Either cut it in half or hang it. Can you hang a brisket and have it turn out ok? Or should I cut it in half?
Hey Everyone!
Still new to this, and learning everyday. So far on my smoker, I have only done Pork Ribs, Loin, and Chicken. I want to take a foray in to the beef world now. I went down to the local grocery and took a good look through the meat section. This is what I found:
Sirloin Tip...
Thought I would share. We picked up a cured ham from the butcher today. Not smoked or cooked. The boy and I made a brine to soak in for 86 hours to try and get some moisture in. He injected it to try and build a flavour profile, and push that moisture inside. Smoked today for 6 hours at...
Maybe someone can shed some light on this. Second time in a row this has happened. Smoking whole chicken 1st one was left whole, second one was spatchcocked. Had my thermopro in the breast. Both times, temp came up consistantly, until it hit 162F. About 1 degree every 3-5 min or so...
Whole Chickens. There was a whole bunch of them on sale at the local grocery store for 50% off what they usually are. So I bought 27 of them lol. They are in the freezer and I have been experimenting with a few of them. I want to know what everyone does to make delicious chicken! Spachcock...
Let me start out by first saying I am no pro. I just started in this journey last year, and am starting to love it! Yesterday I bought a pork loin rib half roast. I seasoned it with a basic home made rub. Let it sit in the fridge over night. Today I fired up the propane smoker to 265F (only...
Hey Guys,
I just started smoking about a year ago now. I use a propane smoker, as here in Northern Canada, wood for a stick burner is next to impossible. I also have a ThermoPro TP-08. I read alot of reviews on it before purchasing it, and 98% of them were great. I also liked the idea of...
Good Evening,
I purchased the TP-08 on Amazon last summer as an upgrade from the cheap digital thermometers that I had before. I use my smoker probably about once a week/two weeks. I have found that I am having repeated probe issues, especially with the smaller BBQ probe, and have had to...
Good Morning!
Quick Question,
What exactly are pork side ribs and can you use the 3-2-1 meathod? I have heard of spare ribs and baby back, and for one of them, you are supposed to do 2-2-1 or else they will be over cooked. Thoughts?
Thanks!
Hey Everyone,
I have been monitoring this site and have got a lot of advice from the forum. Thought I would say hello all the way from Northern BC Canada. With living in Northern BC, stick burners are not really an option. We have alot of soft wood up here, but no hard wood. So with that...
Hey Everyone,
Just a quick couple questions. I have a Masterbuilt Pro Dual Fuel Smoker, and it has been a learning curve for sure. The only mods that I have done is adding a cast iron pan for the chips (sits on top of the old one) and I currently have it wrapped in reflextec insulation (its...
