My smoked salmon fillet recipe/process
By the way, after I pulled the salmon off last night and realized they were too salty, I rinsed off the cooked fish. I know it was risky but I had nothing to lose, it was almost inedible. So I rinsed each hunk of filet, patted them dry and left them sit out for several hours. I vacuum packed... -
My smoked salmon fillet recipe/process
Well that was pretty uncalled for. The guy was nice enough to share his recipe with everyone. There are many ways to smoke salmon and have it come out great. -

They don't sell farm raised salmon in Kansas? -
My smoked salmon fillet recipe/process
I just did this recipe. Just pulled the filets off the smoker. I actually used steelhead as it was $2/lb cheaper than salmon. I pulled off a little piece and it was so salty my bunghole puckered up. The taste is good but its very salty. I am wondering if rinsing it off next time would make... -
Giving up on my Traeger
I've had my Traeger for over a year now and at times I have been frustrated with the lack of smoke flavor. Near my work we have a great BBQ place that serves fantastic brisket. That brisket has smoke flavor throughout every single morsel of every bite. The brisket on my Traeger has never...- cwb124

Can my brisket be saved?
Well I think I saved it. I wrapped it in HD foil and put in the oven at 240 degrees for about 90 minutes. I then let it rest for about an hour still wrapped in foil (didn't use a cooler, guess I should have). Thick sliced, falling apart just as I liked it. I sliced about 3/4 of it and... -
.99/Pound Briset-Kroger
I have never seen a sale on briskets. Where do you find these deals? In store only? -
Can my brisket be saved?
It was only 11lbs before trimming. Trimmed at least 2lbs. It really should be done, but I guess what I really like in a brisket requires 14+ hours of smoking. I like thick slices and almost falling apart. -
Can my brisket be saved?
I should calibrate the thermometer, or at least test it. The best way is the boiling water, right? Well I foiled it and put it in the over. We'll see what happens. Supervan, not sure how that helps. Brisket is already cooked for the most part. -
Can my brisket be saved?
Put my 3rd brisket on the smoker last night at about 1:30am. Temperature around 235. Got up twice to check and to flip it early this morning. Bottom line is it hit 192 degrees at about 2pm today and I used another thermometer to test the tenderness. Thermometer went in and out very easily... -
New Traeger
Definately wouldn't do single serve steaks on a traeger. It's just not what it is built for. A 15lb prime rib on the other hand...well the traeger would make a masterpiece out of that! A $20 portable propane grill would be better for steaks than a Traeger. -
Need to rest a whole smoked chicken?
Did not inject the bird, although I have in the past when broiling them in the oven. Definately the way to go, and I will do it next time. I didn't brine either. Well I goofed up on this bird. I fired my Traeger up on high (375*) to get it started and forgot to change it. 1.5 hours later... -
Need to rest a whole smoked chicken?
Sorry, I can't seem to find the answer. Smoking my first whole bird today on the Traeger using hickory. I have it all rubbed down ready to go on. After I get the bird up to temp, is it recommended to rest the bird like is done with Brisket? If so, for how long? -
Anybody buy Brisket at Costco?
I ONLY buy the whole packer cut. It's cheaper per pound, even after trimming the fat. I figure if I'm going to bother smoking some meat for 12 or so hours, I'm going to do as much as possible to make best use of my time and my fuel. I use a Traeger so the pellets can add up if you use a lot... -
Trying salmon first time, good eats?
I made some smoked salmon the other day using a commercial brine and had odd results. When it was done, it tasted like kielbasa right off the smoker. I wrapped in plastic for 24 hours and it tasted awesome then. 48 hours later it was even better. Strange.
