New Year's Brisket
Grilled cheese with brisket was HER idea, and was spot-on! -
New Year's Brisket
Thanks Dan - I've been hitting up the CostCo in Wharton or East Hanover. I now have access to the Restaurant Depot in Pine Brook and looking forward to doing a full packer - IF it fits on my WSM 18! Haven't done beef ribs yet... Lots of pork though! -
My First Attempt to make Bacon
Looks great! I'll be smoking mine this weekend. Also did the maple pepper last time out and it was really good. Be careful - curing your own bacon gets _really_ addicting, and EVERYONE wants some! -
New Year's Brisket
Thanks Scott- This is brisket number 5 for me. Learning a bit more every time I light the smoker. Thankfully, I can experiment a bit when it's just the two of us for dinner. She's very understanding and enjoys the "mistakes" or miscalculations that I encounter even if it means we eat at 8pm! -
New Year's Brisket
It was slightly chilly and very windy here in Northern NJ on New Year's Day. I was planning to smoke about 10 pounds of pork belly, but the cure wasn't completely done, so I opted for a small brisket flat. After trimming, it was about 5 pounds. I used the low-salt "Jeff's Rub", and popped it on... -

Memorial Day - Pork Belly Burnt Ends
TRUE! I've gone to all the local supermarkets in my area of Northern NJ. Acme, Wegmans, Shop-Rite, Kings... The supermarkets near where I work - Acme and Wegmans. The Wegmans near my home has the Morton's "tender quick", but their website says it shouldn't be used for curing belly. Strange that... -
Memorial Day - Pork Belly Burnt Ends
Just make them! This was only the 4th time I've EVER used a smoker. About 4.5 hours on my WSM. 3 hours directly on the grates, and 90 mins in a covered foil pan braising with some BBQ sauce, honey, and a few pats of butter. Remove the cover for the last 15 minutes. -
Memorial Day - Pork Belly Burnt Ends
Bought 10lbs of pork belly to try and make bacon, but couldn't find any "pink stuff" here in my area for the cure. So, what to do? Found a recipe for pork belly burnt ends! Two batches (about 8 pounds) No photos - but absolutely a smash hit and not one leftover! -
New in NJ - Mike M.
Ahhh! That's good to know. Bought a couple of flats and did them both for Mother's day. Was going to look for packers at a couple of the better butcher shops in my area. First time brisket - two 4.5-5 lb flats Right before smoke Second one - no pics of the first since we devoured it. -
New in NJ - Mike M.
Yup. the GF is a keeper. She bought me the smoker specifically to "make her brisket every once in a while and beer can chicken" lol. -
New in NJ - Mike M.
Greetings- My girlfriend bought me a WSM 18" (and a companion cook/smoke book) for Christmas. I'm a lucky guy! With the delay of spring here in the northeast, I didn't get a chance to use it until last month. My first smoke ever was baby back ribs - two racks for her mom's birthday. Turned out...
