    Question

    Hi Steve, I do eat a lot of fish so here's what I would suggest: Flounder and other white flesh seafood has very little or no fat at all so a long smoke would dry it out. I prefer the higher heat of a grill for white flesh. Use a little butter or oil on your fillets. If the fillets are less than...

    How about oysters?

    Hmmm, I've never put them in a smoker unshucked. I'm not sure if they would open or not. But I know they dump a lot of water when I grill them - they might put out your fire in a smoker. I agree with mcp9 - shuck first. Even if the shells will open in a smoker, they probably don't open wide...

    How about oysters?

    Hi rrsteve, I grill/smoke lots of oysters all winter, this year I went through 3-1/2 bushels... I got plenty of zinc now. Anyway... oysters (and clams, mussels and any whitefish) need a delicate smoke like cedar, alder or apple. Hickory, oak or mesquite are too strong and will overpower the...

    should i get a weber kettle?

    Get a Weber. Versatile. Well made. Don't put the cooking grate on until after the coals are lit and spread out and it will keep it from buring off the chrome plating.

    Great to have the site back up and running!

    How would you do your Prime Rib

    A thick piece of meat, on the bone, tented will hold it's heat well. I think 20 minutes to a half hour should be just about right.

    How would you do your Prime Rib

    Rub with salt and pepper then grill slowly, indirect. The char grill flavor will go much better with the crabs legs. Smoked will overpower everthing at the table.
