Alright everyone,
I'm looking for help here because I want to attempt smoking bbqs. For some reason in Minnesota, or maybe other parts of the midwest are plagued by this as well, we don't really have sloppy joes, we call them bbqs. It's a weird thing. Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how I go about smoking the ground chuck. Do I leave it as a log and smoke it plain without seasoning, do I season it, so I break it apart and smoke it in a pan, do I fry it in a pan and add all the ingredients and then smoke it? What's the best route to go here? I'm leaning toward adding the dry ingredients, logging it up, and then smoking it and adding wet ingredients afterward. Just not sure how that will affect the smoke flavor? Any ideas would be great. Thanks in advance.
