Just soaking

[slightly marinaded]

Greetings from slightly marinaded. I have been using hickory smoke when I grill out for some time now but never to the extent as described at this web site. I was introduced to the forum and the "art" of smoke by our good friend T-roy. Currently I am using a vertical Brinkman and my gas grill aided by chunks of hickory.
Within the month I plan to try my hand at smoking a turkey(per a request by my father-in-law) and a london steak. From there who knows what meat I will come across or what is on sale.
Autumn brings new opportunites to the table here in the Midwest so who knows what will be in the smoker next.

Welcome to the forums! Be sure to give us Qview of anything and everything, we love to see all your good stuff! (Qview = pictures; i.e. "BBQ Views"). If you're from the midwest, do you have access to dried corn cobs? Great stuff to smoke with; my dad smoked all his hams and bacons with them; see the Qviews:

DUDE!!! WASSSSUP! Glad you posted. BTW, my sirloin tip came out good with hickory, although, I think mesquite or oak would have tasted better. But...it was still awesome.

Dude, you gotta check out this cool ecourse they have here, it's free and really good.

RABBIT, FTW!!!

Here is the Q-view of the Rabbit. It isn't pretty but it was tastie.

 

[slightly marinaded]

Corn Cobs? What the heck I'll give them a try! One question though would you use them only on hams and bacon or could you use them on other meat as well?

 

[slightly marinaded]

Love the quote from Ben Franklin, MotorHedd

 

[pops6927]

You can use them on anything that moves; they give a nice sweet smoke. Because of their natural sugars, be careful you don't get them too hot and they fire up on you tho. You can smoke with them exclusively or add them to your lump or wood, depending on what type of smoker you have.

LOL why thank you!

on the rabbit!

 

[t-roy]

Dude, I got some left over COBS from dinner the other night....you're welcome to 'em. Zoey had a bit of a runny nose, but let them dry out and IT'S ALL GOOD BROTHA!!!

Welcome SM.

 

[slightly marinaded]

Dude I already started the course but thanks for thinking about me

 

[slightly marinaded]

One other question, do you use the bare corn cobs or whole ears with the corn still attached? I thought, until you mentioned "their natural sugars", that all of along you were refering to bare corn cobs.

Thanks
