My neighbor knocked down my mailbox. So I thought I would give the Mailbox mod a try for my UDS. This will allow me to Hot Smoke using the AMNPS.
First I drilled multiple wholes in the bottom of the mailbox to allow for ventilation. Next I cut a 4 inch hole in the mailbox by using a jig saw. ...
Some people have a link to their blog in their signatures. When I notice these, I add them to my Google Readers RSS feed.
I would like to use this thread for people to post their smoking blogs. Lets try to keep this to blogs focused on outdoor cooking and everything SMF focuses on. No family...
"William McCoy, 59, passed away from congestive heart failure on September 9 of last year at the Harlem Hospital Center in New York, and that might not mean anything to you if you’re not familiar with the man and his work. McCoy was also known as Wolf Johnson, AKA the man who gave us the famous...
For Christmas I am getting an AMNPS for my UDS. I plan on using the mailbox mod so I can use it to Hot or Cold smoke.
This cold smoking business is new to me. I understand the idea and concept behind it; seems very straight forward. I thought I would find a sticky or an overall general good...
My UDS has a pretty large charcoal basket (15 inches in diameter). I place wood chunks throughout the basket on multiple levels and use minion method, however, it only produces smoke for the first hour. My wife is asking for a Christmas list and I'm thinking an AMNPS is the way to go...
Over the weekend I smoked 2 more Beer Can Chickens. I've probably done 10+ chickens over the past 1.5 years. I always do them the same way; brine for two days, rub, sit over night, smoke 'em in the morning.
When the chickens are to temp, I pull them off and ALWAYS remove and throw away the...
I could not be more proud of my daughter. Please say hello to her new friend, Brisket; a lovely 12.5 pound packer.
I put it in the cart and she insisted on having it sit next to her.
This weekend I smoked Beef Ribs, Memphis Style Pork Spare Ribs, and BBQ Beans. It was my first time doing beef ribs. I don't think I do Beef Ribs again but the Memphis style pork spares where delicious. The Beans, as always, was a fan favorite.
The dog making sure the hungry neighbors don't...
I am building a UDS and had to buy a 4' x 4' sheet of 9 gauge steel mesh. I can make 5 basket sides out of this (10 inches high x 15 inch diameter). I only need 2 of these. Would anyone be interested in buying 1 of the other 3?
You will need to supply the ash pan and the basket base. This is...
What is a good grate level thermometer to use? Correct me if I am wrong but I assume the $5 replacement grill thermometers at Home Depot isn't the most accurate.
The following was posted by a member in the UDS group but didn't have a response, so I'm reposting here because I have the same question.
I was wondering what types of businesses I should call to try and find some open head unlined 55 gallon drums.
I've searched craiglist for a couple weeks...
Has anyone on here been to Myron Mixson's Jacks Old South Cooking School? I have read other places that it is well worth the money. It would be a big investment ($750 + airfare, hotel, car) but being young (30), I would learn skills I could use for 40+ more years...
This is my first time smoking Deer. I currently have a deer roast soaking in a Brine I found online at the West Virgina Trophy Hunters website (http://www.wvtrophyhunters.com/smoked_venison.htm)
1 cup non-iodized salt
1 Tbs sage
1 cup sugar
1 Tbs ground cloves
1 Tbs tarragon
1 Tbs soy...
I started a 8 pound pork butt last night at 2am expecting it to take around 12 hours. This is my first time doing on in an electric smoker. 4 hours in and I'm at 154 degrees and the rub is still mushy, not a hard bark at all. What gives? Is this normal for an electric smoker?
FYI: the smoker is...
Just getting around to posting this but thought the wife did a great job.

We had some relatives in town. Being that they currently live in Arkansas and originally from Cali, they know their BBQ and their Tri-tips. What better reason to leave work early on a rainy Monday, than to spark up the electric smoker (Cookshack-008)?
Living In Maryland, tri-tip is hard to...
