    Thinking abot a Mexican Q sauce

    Picked up some EL PATO tomato sauce (Mexican) the other day. Have a lot of chili powder. Was thinking of using them in a standard Q sauce. Vinegar, brown sugar and the normal spices. Anyone have any ideas?

    Been here awhile but still new

    Never filled out my Roll Call. I live in Shingletown California. 30 miles east of Redding. Up in the mountains at 3,800 ft. Get all 4 seasons. When I leave, it will be in a pine box. Thought of around town as a good cook, griller, and smoker. Since I've been on SMF, I realize I've only...

    My evaluation on my new MES30

    First off. I needed to pay closer attention to the dimensions. It was a lot smaller than I visualized. I think I would have bought a MES40 instead. I did 2 chickens on it and had to stack them on 2 shelves. Wouldn't fit side by side. The other con is that it took me at least 30 minutes to clean...

    Looking for Crowder Peas

    I'm out here in California, And can't find crowder peas. I used to get Bushes crowder peas at Holiday Market. Bean counters took them off the shelves. (guess I was the only one buying them.) My aunt back in Georgia has been looking for them dried to ship to me. She can't find them either. Grew...

    Got a new MES30 coming

    Just won an auction on E-BAY for a MES30. $243.00, including freight. Can't wait! I've never smoked with an electric smoker. I have a propane smoker that I'm gonna convert to a cold smoker. "She who must be obeyed" thinks I'm nuts. Having 9 smokers and grills, she's probably right. Gonna have to...

    Chicken Kabobs

    Anyone ever smoke chicken kabobs? I have a marinade that I got from Allrecipes.com that I have been using on chicken and pork for years. Always grilled it. Wondering how long I might smoke them before drying them out. I'm gonna cube them to about 2in. Pineapple bell pepper and onions. If you...

    Looking for a tomato based sauce that's not sweet.

    I had some bbq in Tyler Texas 30 years ago. Best sauce I ever had. Wasn't sweet with brown sugar, syrup, or other sweet stuff. Also reminded me of the Hickory Pit sauce we had here in California. I've looked through several pages of recipes here but it's taking a long time. I love Jeff's rub and...

    ham.....regular vs spiral cut

    I bought a regular bone in ham. I was reading Jeff's recipe and saw that he likes spiral cut hams. I don't. I don't care for 1/8 in slices except layered on sandwiches. I want a bigger slice. 1/2 to 3/4 in. I've never seen anything but 1`/8 in. cut. I was thinking of cutting deep slices in it...
