    Is my smoker too fast?

    I bought a Green Mountain Grill Danial Boone WiFi smoker a few months ago. It's an electric-element pellet smoker. I've been grilling for 15 years with MUCH success on propane grills, but smoking meats is proving to be more difficult to feel like I'm doing it right. I have now smoked turkeys...

    Cured Venison Hind-Quarter (Ham) 1st time w/Qview

    I killed a large mule deer roughly a month ago with a perfect shot and the deer went right down. None of the meat was damaged so instead of taking the meat to the processor, or instead of bottling it all (like I normally do), I decided I'd try to do some things with it. It is the first time for...

    Crispy TURKEY skin, over-the-top attempt WITH PICS

    So after a half-dozen AMAZING turkey breast successes in my (not-so-new-anymore) GMG Daniel Boone Wifi Smoker, I finally decided I was ready for the big show. I bought a 100% natural, fresh whole turkey coming in around 14LB. I got a little crazy on this one and tried every suggestion I had read...

    Smoked turkey is my favorite food - HELP ME?

    For a long time, quality cooked turkey has been my grocery of choice. I have made sandwiches, wraps, casseroles, tur-duck-in, soups, turkey-with-stuffing, and turkey lunchmeat by itself. I LOVE TURKEY.  I'm 34 years old, married 10 years with 4 children. I work as a web developer, have been a...
