    How long can I keep Cryovac meat in the fridge?

    Hey all I saw an very old post that tlaked about this but it was talking about dry aging and other factors. I am going to Costco today to buy a whole Prime Sirloin that is cryo-sealed (the piece would come out of their walk-in fridge). I want to keep it in my regular fridge until Sunday (so...

    Want to buy my first Pellet Smoker

    Appreciate the feedback!! I might check craigslist and see if i can find a used one to give a try before dropping a lot on something i may or may not like.  My propane smoker, while not the best model (Smokehollow pro 44) it does turn out some good food and I have yet to have a bad review of...

    Want to buy my first Pellet Smoker

    The Camp Chef Woodwind does look like an awesome option. I am concerned with places I see saying that these pellet smokers only offer light smoke flavor.  It seems odd to me as so many people use them for competitions.  Doesn;t everyone say all you want is thin blue smoke anyhow?  Bit confused

    Roughest smoking experience to date!!

    Thanks for all the replies!  I have cranked the heat up in the oven to 325 about 15 min ago.  Right now it is at 191 internal temp. I normally do have a backup tank, for some reason I forgot that I didn't get the backup tank refilled :-( The party is in about an hour so hope it hits the temp i...

    Want to buy my first Pellet Smoker

    The smaller Rec-Tec for $499 is certainly an option too if it is built better and can hold temps better.  It does hold only 15lbs of pellets but for me that should be more than fine.  I don;t need the grill portion, I have my propane grill with my Grill grates that sear the heck out of anyhting...

    Roughest smoking experience to date!!

    Well, not even sure I can call this a smoke but what a horrible time i had (having). Going to a get together toda for the 4th and everyone asked me to bring something smoked.  I decided to do a nice 9lb pork butt since i never done one befroe. So last night I setup my smokehollow propane...

    Want to buy my first Pellet Smoker

    Hey guys, I've been smoking for 2-3 years on my Smoke Hollow Pro 44 Propane smoker.  It was the first thing I bought and it has been okay.  I have made some good BBQ with it but the more I am smoking now the more i see it has become far too fidgity for a Propane smoker.  The temp swings too...

    Prime Sirloin Steaks

    I got a hunk of Prime Sirloin at Costco for $4.29lb.  Cut that bad boy down into some steaks and decided to grill them up. I used some All American BBQ Rub, I normally only use Slat and Pepper on my steaks but wife wanted to try it out.  They came out quite amazing.  Better than most steaks...

    Need some smoking advice / troubleshooting

    Thanks Al, I actually have the small tube one I use for my propane grill.  I never really thought to use it in my smoker, because...well it is a smoker, it is supposed to do the smoking. lol.  I'll try my tube in a short smoke and see how it fairs and maybe invest in the AMNPS tray for longer...

    Need some smoking advice / troubleshooting

    Thanks for the reply! No i have never soaked the wood chips.  I had read early on that soaked wood chips would let off steam until all the water evaporated and then they would start to actually smoke. I guess it doesn't hurt to give it a try though and see what happens. The chip box that came...

    Need some smoking advice / troubleshooting

    Hey all, So I have had my Propane smoker for about a year now (Smoke hollow pro 44) and I have smoked a bunch of ribs in it and some turkey's that have come out great!  I have had an issue with wood chips / chunks and I tried to google a solution but couldn't find an answer. My propane smoker...

    New Smoke Hollow Pro Series 44" LP Gas Smoker

    I have owned this smoker for a few months and have done a bunch of smokes with it and have been pretty happy. Below are some observations and then a question: I used gasket to seal my doors. I have yet to use something to seal around the glass to keep smoke in, but find not much smoke leaks...

    My first attempt at smoking ribs

    Oh man!!!  No wonder I was fighting with it so much and could barely get anything to come off!!  Do you know if their St Louis cut ribs also have the membrane off?

    My first attempt at smoking ribs

    Thanks for the heads up. I really should test the thermometer that came with the unit to see how much it is off by. I have the Chef Alarm by Thermoworks but wasn't sure if I just dangled the meat probe in the smoker if that would give me accurate temps.  I was looking to get the Maverick so I...
