    Whole chicken HELP

    The time will depend on the size of the bird. I usually smoke a 4-5 pound bird for about 3.5-4.5 hours at 225 degrees. Best to use a digital therm that you can insert into the bird. I pull the bird at 150 (that's just my liking); most will say let it hit 165...

    Pulled Pork Question

    Debi does exactly what I do; throw the juice in the fridge/freezer for a bit. Let the fat harden up, then scrape it off and add the juice.

    Cold Smoked Salmon

    OK, It's been a long cold winter here in Colorado. Smokes in the cold have been few and far between, I can't wait for summer! I decided to take advantage of the cold the other day and add cold smoked salmon to my "repertoire". Here goes... I started with a whole side of fish; cut a few 6 ounce...

    New to forum (sort of)

    A warm welcome from up north in Superior (Boulder County)! how are you dealing with all of the strange weather? Sub zero temps and snow measured in feet really put a damper on my winter smoking.
