OK, no kidding. I started smoking meat 12 days ago, and have smoked 6 different times since then. I've smoked a whole chicken, tilapia, chicken breasts, turkey breasts, wings, and ribs x 2. That's all in the last 12 days. And since Saturday I've had bad gas coming up as burps, thank God not farts.
I saw this post sometime last week, and just skipped over it thinking the OP was just being funny. But I've had the burps for like an hour to 2 hours at a time. They've gotten to be longer stretches. I've got them right now, and had them since 11:30 this afternoon. Could it just be that my body is just adapting to the huge intake of smoke that I'm getting from all of this smoked meat?
Again this is not a joke, it's very annoying and painful sometimes. Feels like I've got a bubble of gas at the base of my throat just below the collar bone that keeps pushing out burps. This is crazy!!! I've decided to hold off on smoking, and eating smoked meats the next 4 days. Have to make some ribs for when the in-laws arrive next week though.
By the way there are some hillarious posts on here. I decided to read all of the posts at first to see if anyone else had an idea as to what was going on before I posted, but all you jokers out there are frickin hilarious!
