How Often Do You Smoke And Eat Smoked Meats

Ok, fess up.
She was standing over you shoulder when you posted that.

Now that my smoker has died (new parts are on the way) I am glad i have leftover smoked goodies to get us by. as soon as they get here smoked meat will be served daily.

Anyway, to answer Ron's question - Not nearly enough.

Unfortunately the economy has dictated my buying habits.

Ever since I built my smoker early spring 08 and tasted the food, I've been the main smoker/cook at the house. It's now more than just smoking. I'm the one that has to go to the grocery/meat market to get the main courses. If my wife cooks/bakes, the kids say to her, "Not bad for not being smoked mom." But then she really enjoys it too. I know that some day I will get called back to work and I will have to wake up from this dream but I'm having fun while it's lasting.

When Im home once a week but its large enough for 3 or 4 times a week.....

I probably smoke stuff once every couple of weeks, but I eat smoked food every other day at least. Smoked some pork 2 weeks ago, just now finishing off the leftovers - after essentially living off pulled pork sandwiches for 2 weeks and dropping off a couple pounds with my parents for Thanksgiving (how many college students do you know who give their parents food instead of taking it

). So, of course, I decided to smoke some Fatties/ABTs a couple days ago, since we're running low on pulled pork.

I voted "not very often". But there are caveats...

a) I add smoke chips when grilling on the Weber gas grill, so there's always *some* smokiness in my grilling.

b) When I do smoke, I fill up the smoker and then freeze much of it. Because even though I love smoked foods and I love the process of smoking, I also have other facets of my life that are pleasurable. Can't imagine tending a smoker 5 days of every week, unless I owned a restaurant or something.

2-3 Times a week @ least . I smoke hotdogs , hamburgers , chicken , sausage , porkchops , briskets , turkeys , pork loins , ribs , peppers , pears , apples ( don't work very well ) , pressed ham slices ( large and
about 1/2" thick , shrimp , catfish , large mouth black bass , squirrels and wild hogs . Other words if you can cook it I try to smoke it for the taste and ease of use . Makes the kitchen cooler in the summer saving money for energy .The watt burner and charcoal cookers are way cheaper than natural gas and electricty combined , not to mention the cost of cooling the house down after cooking ...

Thanks for asking .

Looks like most of us are once a weekers, especially if you add the 'every week' and 'once a week together.

I smoke about 3 weekends a month and eat smoked products 6 days a week.

 

[graybeard]

OK, this will be my 94th week without missing one dang week. Except for maybe 6 steaks and 10 seafood meals I've eaten pork each and every day! Needless to say, I'm strung out and can't get enough. My newest moto is "PULLED PORK, IT DOES A BODY GOOD"!

Once a week. But it is for many meals and for some shut ins and some for some that dont get out ( dont drive any more)...they like smoked meats and Sausage, and will buy the meat (I smoke it for them) it is what being a friend is all about.

you may need to go into bathroom and get a grip on yourself ! !

 

[chisoxjim]

This past week:
Saturday(meatloaf, and meatballs)
Sunday(chicken & shrimp)
Monday(smoked shrimp pasta, smoked meatballs and spaghetti)
Thursday(bb rib fried rice).

pretty typical nowdays, fresh smoked meat on the weekends, leftover smoked meat turned into other things during the week.

I just purchased my first smoker this past Christmas, so I've only been able to use it once so far. Plan on using it a lot more this Spring.

I Dread Good Friday!

 

[daddyzaring]

NOT OFTEN ENOUGH! I am kind of picky, My smoker doesn't work good enough for me, and until I can afford to fix it, or find something else that will work for me, I'll just suffer. lol

 

[northern greenhorn]

Not as often as I like, I'm a newbie, and just learning, I'm doing a sirloin tip roast today

 

[smokin relaxin steve]

I usually smoke on the weekends, but with leftovers i eat it probably 2 times a week (maybe 3)...

 

[caveman]

I smoke on my weekend which is Sunday, Monday & we always have enough for at least three days or so.

 

[DougE]

I smoke 2 or 3 times a week and eat the leftovers (if there are any) in between.
