    Chicken Quarters and Meatloaf

    Sunday's Smoke: Chuckies and Beef Ribs

    My dad called the other night and asked if I would smoke a couple of chuck roasts he had picked up (and even offered to split them with me).  Well, I can't tell dad no, because I'm the best daughter ever! So I also picked up some beef ribs so the smoker wouldn't get too lonely.  Using mostly...

    Ham Question

    I reviewed Jeffs newsletter from last year regarding smoking a pre cooked ham.  However he mentions that his is spiral cut.  The one I will be smoking is not spiral cut, but it is already cooked.  Am I going to have to smoke quite a bit longer to get this thing done for Christmas dinner?  Its...

    Where Can I Get Stuff

    My dh has agreed to build me a smoker. I believe we have settled on a double barrel smoker (after much heated discussion). I have access to the drums I need. But where can I find all the other goodies inexpensively. I.e., the smoke stack, the doors and the collars between the two barrels. I...

    Another Excuse To Smoke

    I just discovered over the weekend that ash makes a great de-greaser. So I scooped out my ash pan, mixed some water with it to make a paste and went to work!!! Wow, it worked great!! So if anyone needs an "excuse" to smoke, there it is!

    Oops

    So I decided I needed a fatty. Marinated some chicken overnight in my favorite fajita marinade. Cut it up and sauteed it with some onion and green pepper. So far so good. As I let that cool, I get the smoker ready. Come back in, roll out my sausage (1lb JD original). Put down some Mexican...

    Beef Ribs

    What should I know about smoking beef ribs as opposed to pork ribs. I had planned on doing the 3-2-1 method. Is this ok? The weight is just over 3 lbs, using a vertical Brinkman. Plan on using some hickory and some apple.
