    I need a tiny smoker!!!

    Okay so I live in a condo and I'm looking for a really small slow smoker for my backyard. (actually its just a big field that I'm not technically supposed to use for grilling but....) Any of you guys know where I can buy such a smoker? I'm talking small. Something smaller than an ECB.

    Fat Free Cream Cheese in ABT's

    One word....HORRIBLE!!!!! I dont know who talked me into it, but using fat free CC was absolutely disgusting. It tasted like burnt rubber! Oh well, no more skimping for me. My next batch of ABT's will be stuffed with cream cheese/cheddar and wrapped in double extra fat bacon!!!

    Need help with my ECB!!!

    I'm smoking shrimp for the company thanksgiving feast. I just realized that one of the reasons that my last batch wasn't spectacular was that I filled the water pan. The steam is probably not good for helping with that brown color I'm looking for, but I dont want to dry the shrimp out. Anyone...

    Hail fellow smokers!

    I wouldn't call myself a total noob, but I've been smoking for over a year now and am still learning new things every time I smoke. Because of low funds, I'm using a cheap Brinkmann I bought online. It has a big pan of coals on the bottom, a water pan on top of that, and two small racks for the...
