    Flat Cut Brisket

    I found a small piece of meat called "Flat cut angus brisket" that was marked down so I brought it home. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. It is only a pound in weight and about 1/2" thick. There is not a lot of marbeling so I'm thinking I should let it marinade a little and then...

    Smoking with Citrus wood

    What Happened?

    I smoked two loins for a church dinner yesterday I cut them in half so that I would have four pieces (smoker's not big enough to handle the whole loin) plus they are easier to handle. I wrapped them in bacon sort of like a "fatty" but not quite as much. One piece turned out great, good smoke...

    Need some advice

    Am thinking about buying a MES (the glass door model, 40" I think) I have read some reviews and although the unit seemed solid and well built to me, there were some negatives. I have noticed a lot of you have a MES and would like to know your opinion. Bob

    I'm wondering??

    I smoked a leg of lamb yesterday and was really disappointed in the taste, it was very bland. I didn't get a nice lamb flavor and it didn't seem to pick up the flavor of the smoke (oak and hickory, more oak than hickory). I ran the smoker at 250-275. I wrapped in foil at 150 internal and left...

    How about oysters?

    Read missLee's mussels and shrimp and what she had to say about the hickory smoke, I'm planning on doing some oysters in a week or so and will be using oak. Do you think that will work? I don't think oysters have as delicate a tast as mussels. How long do you leave in the smoker? rrsteve
