    $1/lb. whole loin roasts at HEB, how well do they smoke?

    I love to smoke pork loin. Here is one that I brined in salt and sugar for 5 hours, rubed with spices and smoked at 240 degrees. It came out very tender and juicy..........

    New and a little confused

    Keep the top vent all the way open at all times. Get the charcoal pan up off the floor of the smoker. Even a 1/4" will help. Don't put water in the pan. I don't smoke with water at all and have no problems. If temps start to drop, lightly shake the wok pan to reduce the ash build up. I run...

    Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms

    I think the flavor of portabella's is better with the gills removed. When cooked with the gills they seem to have an off-taste to me????

    help me out on my first smoke.

    On chicken, be sure to get the cook temps up to 250 - 300 degrees and cook by time not temperature. I personally would take issue with this statement based on the time & temp chart to the left under wytk. With a smoker temp of 250 degrees, the approx cook time of a whole chicken is 4 hrs...

    help me out on my first smoke.

    Yea - spray or wipe it down with oil and fire it up empty. Here are some hints. Keep the top vent all the way open at all times. Good job on the wok pan for the charcoal. It will really help. Put something under the wok to allow airflow under it. Getting up a 1/4" will help. Don't put...
