    smoking bacon... COLD OR HOT SMOKE?

    No question, cold smoking is the best way to go. But when you're tight on time, hot smoking to about 150 works well. Takes about 3 hours for me.

    Deboned chix smoke w/Q-view

    Got started late yesterday with my chickens so I decided to debone them. Two whole birds. Thought maybe it would save on time and it really did. Had them done in about 1hr 45mins at about 250. Alder/Cherry. Brined for 2 hours. Here's the improvised technique: Wanted them to hang so I took a...

    Roast a pig in a Chinese box!

    Here's the link to the site. I grabbed the accessory page so you could see the smoker attachment. I have their Turkey roaster where I cook my chickens for the kids lunches. About an hour and they're done. I haven't tried the smoker but looks like some have...

    A Christmas ham gone bad: The final chapter

    Thanks for all the positive feedback...I guess I was hoping for something that looked a little less muscle and bit more hammy-something like a smithfield. But I've already served it for lunch and for dinner and the reviews are really good. Ho-ho-ho! Mike

    Christmas Eve Ribs with Qview

    Nice looking Eve dinner. I too prefer my spares a bit tighter. Just skip the '2' part of 3-2-1 and keep them on, spritzing with applejuice every hour and you should be fine. Check em after 5 hours to test. Mike

    Mrs. Engineer's Christmas gift to her co-workers

    I tell you what, I was exhausted last night and made the mistake of loggin on and found your thread when you built your BBQ Castle and trailer. An hour later I'm still looking at those progress shots. I gotta say that the Engineer title may not be enough. Like Bearcarver, I too am searching for...

    A Christmas ham gone bad: The final chapter

    (For those who want to see the beginning of this adventure, check here... http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...ad.php?t=85983 ) Well, as they say, failure is the first rule of success (or at least that's what I'm saying to my hungry family). I wouldn't claim a complete failure but I challenge...

    A Christmas ham...sort of (with Q-view) Part 1

    BS...you got it just right as my wife is your same town, only in England. Portsmouth, England. Anyhow, I pulled that sucker about two hours ago. It stalled at 137 degrees and I couldn't figure it out. Got anxious and stuck in the oven at 200. Was feeling a little guilty that my Bradley had...

    A Christmas ham...sort of (with Q-view) Part 1

    I couldn't agree more, Mballi. I think in general, whether at Christmas or any other time, Q'g is about giving AND receiving (the kudos-ha!) I'm aready thinking about what I'm smokin' on Dec 26. Married to a Brit and dec 26 in England is also a big party day called "Boxing Day". Just another...

    A Christmas ham...sort of (with Q-view) Part 1

    Boy it's been a while since I've been back here. Great to see all of the activitiy and new faces. For Christmas this year I decided to go for Rytek Kutas' schinkenspeck recipe (less the 'speck' or bacon) and cure/smoke according to his ham recipe. Here's the play-by-play. I'm a complete ham...

    My New Bradley Digital 6 Rack Arrived Yesterday

    My new 6 rack showed up on Friday, had it seasoned on Saturday, and cold smoking 5 lbs of cheddar on Sunday. I'm feeling kinda lazy though. No charcoal or wood to think about. The problem with that is now my wife knows, and my honeydo's have increased cause I got more time. Not sure if you guys...

    Any Recipes for Brinning Chicken Thighs
