    Deep Fried Turkey Recipe???

    Hey everyone; thanks for the great info. We're also planning on deep frying a bird this year. I've got a regular, propane-powered unit, with an 8-gallon pot. My question is how much oil should I plan on buying? I know to put the bird in the pot and fill with water to figure out the...

    pork loin

    Quite good, actually. I had some things come up for yeaterday, so I couldn't attend to the smoker all day. So, I smoked it until it for 3-4 hours and then finished it in the oven. When it came out, I rested it for an hour and then pulled it apart.

    pork loin

    I was at our local grocery store last night and they had pork loin for $1.69/lb. So, I picked up an 11 pounder. I'm planning on rubbing it up tonight and smoking it tomorrow or maybe Sunday. Do any of you guys make pulled pork out of the loin?

    Grill Pro Vertical

    Yeah, I think that's my biggest problem. That, and there really aren't many air holes in the charcoal pan; I don't think it's getting a whole lot of air. I'm thinking about drilling some more holes to raise the water pan and then building a new firebox so it can be hung where the water pan...

    This all sounded great, so I went an got some stuff to smoke. I ended up getting 2 racks of BBR's, doing them 2-2-1 with my own rub. Also have a merinated brisket I got from a local shop. Their merinade is very good, so I'm really excited to see how the brisket comes out smoked. It's only...

    Pheasant?

    I have access to a couple of pheasants and am wondering how they might turn out smoked. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hello from Ohio

    Thanks for the hearty welcome. In all honesty, I've already done two smokes. First I did some salmon fillets - they turned out a little on the dry side, but not too bad. This past weekend I did a pork loin, which turned out pretty well - getting ready to go home and eat some more of it for...

    Hello from Ohio

    Hi Everyone. I bought a small vertical smoker (GrillPro) from Menard's a few weeks ago and am now hooked. On my quest for info, I found this site and was intrigued enough to register. I've seen tons of good stuff here and hope to be around for a long, long time.
