    5 day dry aged smoked prime rib for Christmas dinner. With Lots of Q view.

    I bought a 22 pound Standing Rib Roast from Publix.  They had them on sale for $6.49 a pound, down from $11.99 a pound.  I had the butcher separate the ribs, then tie them back for me.  I let the roast stand in the refrigerator for 5 days at 36 degrees (my beer fridge), then took it out and let...

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    I pulled the Prime Rib at 125 degrees knowing it would increase some.  This is the first time I've done a Prime Rib in a smoker so it was a bit of an experiment.  As it turned out, 125 was right on the money.  It got up to between 135 to 145 in different spots because it was thinner in one are...

    Pastrami from scratch, lots of Q-view!

    Wow!  I've never considered pastrami.  Thanks for the step by step and all the info/pics.  I'll certainly have to try it.  I'm confused as to "Cure#1" though.  I don't know anything about "cures" etc so any info would be appreciated.  Thanks again.

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    I have been using my MES 40 for about a year now and think I've got it doing exactly what I want it to do.  The one thing I figured out is that if you open up the vent all the way, the heat will escape faster than if you close it off, but the up-side of this is that this causes the burner to...

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    I ordered the AMNPS this past Friday, and it showed up TODAY (Monday)!  Wow, these guys are fast shippers!  I can't wait to try it.  I'm very impressed with the MES40 smoker and everything I've cooked in it has come out great.  I think the addition of the AMNPS should send it over the top.  I've...

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    I tried something a little different last night.  I decided to so some beef jerky because my brother-in-law loves it and has never had home made beef jerky.  This time I opened the vent all the way so the moisture in the meat would be drawn out of the smoker and I couldn't believe how much smoke...

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    You need to feed it.  They like meat!  And what the heck, if your going to smoke in it anyway, you might as well cook something.

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    I've got a Masterbuilt 40 inch smoker.  I always leave the vent closed and have had fabulous results with it.  I put 6 racks of baby backs in it, start it off at 275 just to get the wood smoking, then turn it down to 225 and add wood about every hour.  I don't use any water in it because the...
