    You guys must think I'm an idiot. Thyme. Oh well, in a hurry at lunch.

    Pheasant

    Thanks for the input, I've been coming across ideas like this so I guess I'll experiment. Can't be too difficult, just make sure they don't dry out. The bacon is a definite. Maybe add a little sage and time under the bacon. If I can figure out the picture posting thing I'll add some.

    Pheasant

    I've got some pheasant brining but I've never smoked small birds before. What times and temps are recomended? Any recipes I need to follow?

    Chili

    I've got a chili cook-off coming up this weekend. It's my third one I've ever entered and haven't placed in the other two. Anyone got a sure-fire recipe for chili? I'd like to use smoked beef of some sort as the base for the chili and maybe a little pork bacon for flavoring. Any suggestions...

    Bacon-wrapped Jalapenos

    Earl, or would you like Dutch? Lawman is just a nickname. My last name is Law. Took hold during the early days of softball and just stuck. Does anyone have problems with the peppers falling over on the holder? If I don't keep checking on those little suckers I'll have a couple topple over...

    Bacon-wrapped Jalapenos

    At least I know it's not me and it is just a crap shoot figuring out which peppers are hot and which are not. But to be sure, I've planted a few "jap" plants to supply my habit. One is a mild pepper plant and I've got four that are supposed to be hot. We'll see come harvest time. ATB's huh...

    Bacon-wrapped Jalapenos

    Anyone ever do bacon-wrapped jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese? I've been grilling them for a couple of years now and I get high marks from the friends who try them. I've never smoked them though, just grill over medium high heat. Recently I bought a tray that holds them upright which makes...

    Bun in the Oven

    That's wonderful! Gongrats! I'm sure you'll be standing by the smoker in those late months to keep the bunn in the oven warmer. :lol: I'm just wondering what the crib will look like. Maybe a main sleeping area with an off-set toy box. Hee hee hee. Great news! Lawman

    Cooking with wood

    So far I've been happy with the flavor but I do notice that regulating the heat is a little difficult. The meat seems to get pretty dark, almost like char but it's not, just dark. I'll try the charcoal or char wood thing this weekend to see how that works, with a little soaked chunks here and...

    Cooking with wood

    I'm new at smoking so everything now is mainly experimental. What I've been doing is starting my heat source with charcoal and then feeding the coals with dry wood chunks to keep the temps up in the cooking/smoking range. Not soaking, not adding fresh coals, just dry wood in its natural state...

    Lawman from Wichita Kansas. Just bought a Charbroil double-door smoker with off-set fire box and have gotten my feet wet with smoking a couple of chickens, then did the bbq thing with some leg quarters. Eager to explore the world of smoking and bbq. Any suggestions on starting out will be...
