    Shipping vacuum-sealed salmon?

    I'd l ike to send some smoked salmon to a few relatives this year for the holidays. If I vacuum seal the filets ASAP after they come out of the smoker, should they keep OK for a trip through the mail? Obviously I won't be freezing them, since they'd never stay frozen in the mail. Has...

    Smoked Duck

    I'm planning on smoking a few ducks for Thanksgiving dinner. I picked up two whole, fresh ducks at my butcher shop. I plan to marinade/brine them for about 2 days in a pineapple/guava teriyaki style marinade (I plan to water it down just a bit & add some salt to the marinade/brine). Any...

    Smoked Halibut?

    I'm looking for a good marinade recipe for smoked Halibut. Anyone got one they've tried & like a lot? Also, do you smoke Halibut just as long as you'd smoke, for example, Salmon, or does Halibut take more/less time? Thanks! :)

    Help for 1st time GOSM user

    OK. I'm a 'virgin' smoker. I'm getting ready to use my GOSM for the first time tomorrow. I was wondering how, exactly, to use the water pan. Am I supposed to keep it filled w/ water (how full?) the whole time I'm smoking? Also, in your experience, how often do you have to add more wood...

    ECB? Good enough?

    "ECB stands for El Cheapo Brinkman" LOL. OK. I was only recently made aware of this definition. I'm considering getting a Brinkmann Vertical charcoal/wood smoker (the one that looks like a Safe). Is this 'El Cheapo' good enough to get the job done right? I really don't like the...

    Charcoal or Gas smoker? Tryin' to decide

    I'm in the market for my first smoker. I actually don't like the 'bullet' style smokers (I hat having to virtually 'take them apart' to get at whats' inside), so I'm looking at vertical smokers. I've narrowed my selection down to two: The Brinkmann Veritcal Charcoal Smoker...
