    115 Day Dry Aged Rib Primal

    During the Christmas Holidays we had rib primals drop to $5.99/lb and I decided to pick up 4 of them. Coworker also picked up a couple and we decided to dry age two of them. One going to 60 days and the other 100 days. Both were left to wet age in the original cryo bag for a little bit until I...

    Storage for 520# of Pellets

    Hot & Fast Baby Backs

    Ran into a little time crunch on these so not as many pics. Got home around 4:30p and family wanted ribs instead of the planned burgers. Started up the SmokeFire and set her to 300 using 100% cherry. First time really being on a time crunch and doing hot and fast so opted to score the membrane...

    Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin

    While out I saw a 5# Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin and while normally I would wrap my own Bacon prices are still high in my area so decided to roll the dice. Going to start it at 250 using cherry pellets and finish off at 350 once it hits 120 IT or so to crisp up the bacon some. I’ve also decided to...

    Went to Sam’s Club for first time since start of everything and was surprised to see some “new to me” seasonings from Kinders. Decided to try them out on some Chicken and Potatoes. Got the Potatoes on the SmokeFire and a timer set for 30 mins to flip them. Added Chicken after flipping...

    Baby Brisket Time

    So I’m off to a late start but I think I’ll be ok. Little back story in October we bought a cow, ended up being smaller then expected (517# hanging weight) but so far meat has been great. I requested they leave briskets as whole packer briskets and was surprised to see they only came in at...

    Lumber Jack Pellets

    Been reading some good stuff and given price ($8 for 20#) I’m picking up 8 bags of Lumber Jack Pellets today. Unfortunately my local store doesn’t carry their full line up so I’m limited in choices. If anyone else is using them how do you get them? I wouldn’t be opposed to buying a pallet if I...

    SmokeFire Ex6

    Like most I saw most of the bad reviews when the SmokeFire hit the market but given recent sale decided to give the grill a try after seeing some if not all the issues are being fixed. Upon setting up it does look like I have the newest Auger that they’ve been sending people. After powering on I...

    UDS Built around ThermoWorks Billows

    Starting to plan out my first UDS Build and figured why not plan it around the ThermoWorks Billows I already have. I’ve found this and was thinking I could get away with one intake port on the back of the UDS that would always have the billows hooked up to it. Could I get away with this? Should...

    Rookie Mistake :(

    It's been awhile since I've done my last smoke and decided to do one of the wife's favorites, pulled pork. I pulled out the 10lber i had in the freezer already all rubbed up and got it nice and defrosted. Got the Smoke Hollow dialed in and got some Jack Daniels chips in the tray and the pork...

    Earlier in the week i pulled out a Turkey (One of the five i picked up day after Thanksgiving for pennies on the pound) and instead of doing up my normal brine i decied to try out the Slaughterhouse brine that so many of you rave about. So i mixed up 3 gallons of the brine and brined the Turkey...

    Cold Smoking?

    So I am counting the days until i can order a Lang 36. One thing that i cannot seem to find by searching is people using smokers like a Lang to cold smoke. I was thinking that maybe instead of lighting a fire just throw a AMNSP in the firebox but i don't know if that would produce enough smoke...
