I gave my old electric smoker to a friend and purchased a 30" vert. propane smoker. Family is coming in from out of state next week for our 2nd Christmas. I'll smoking a...

    Chips or chunks

    It’s home made. A converted old Westinghouse refrigerator. I place the tray for the chips on a rack that’s on the element.

    Smoked turkey

    I start at 300 then 230 - 235 at 30 min a pound. I rented with aluminum added water to hopefully get some gravy out of it. I put it in at 11:30 and its at 149 degrees. Another hour or so.

    Smoked turkey

    I’m smoking one today for my daughter and her family. It’s16# brined with salt, rosemary, thyme and sage. I’ll smoke it at 225 with a little applewood until 165 in the thighs. I’ll loose tent it. Better to smoke it outside than heat up the house.

    14 lbs. Pork Shoulder fromCostco

    Wow, this was a year ago. This came out very nice see my earlier post. I downloaded the Kindle book "Lone Star Brisket" by James Austin. It is a great book on smoking briskets. I recommend downloading it or buying the hard copy. It helps from buying the meat to serving the finished product. He...

    Good brisket in San Antonio

    Does anyone near San Antonio know where to get the best brisket? I know Costco, Sam's Club, Walmart and HEB has them, but is the another market? Thanks

    It came separately wrapped in plastic. So I just froze it. I smoked it a few weeks later. I used a new rub and mesquite wood. It had more fat and it came out superb.

    14 lbs. Pork Shoulder fromCostco

    I cooked the shoulder on Saturday. @270-300 degrees for 12 hours. I used mesquite smoking chips and Billbo's rub. The flavor was excellent but the outside was dry and a bit chewy. Next time I'll wrap in foil after the first two hours or cook for only 10 hours. I also cooked with the smoke chips...

    14 lbs. Pork Shoulder fromCostco

    To all you experts out there. For pulled pork, I figure I should smoke it at 250 deg for 12 hours. Should I foil it? if so, how does that alter my smoking time or temp? When should I foil it? How long to let it rest before pulling? I want it for my 65th birthday. Can you dig it? Thanks
