    A question for REC TEC owners

    Has anyone used a RT 1250 for cold smoking bacon? I was thinking that if you just put the tube in the belly of the smoker it would be perfect. However, I’m wondering if there would be enough air circulation to draw the smoke out the stack. Interested in hearing from someone who has attempted...

    Cold Smoking Set-Up In My Drum Smoker

    As much as I enjoy cold smoking meats, cheese and butter It's really important to match your smoker with a smoke generator, and pick the right of wood for the job. My drum smoker is my go-to for ham, bacon, Buckboard, sausages etc. It has plenty of room for hanging, a lot of volume and most...

    MiniMax Smokehouse

    Here it is, my modest urban smokehouse that uses a MiniMax Green Egg as a fire pit. I had a heck of a time making it work how I wanted it to, went through 3 redesigns but now it finally works like a charm. Why green egg? I wanted something portable, reliable/predictable and requiring little...

    1st Pork Belly Bacon

    Latest batch of Lox

    Got one last nice cold weekend, so I took the opportunity to turn the last 3 salmon fillets I got from a coworker into lox. Used the exact same method as last time, with the addition of adding dill to the wet brine and sprinkling it with dill before the vacuum seal. I wasn't sure why one of my...
