    boot leather and a christmas prime rib..

    Good advice on the temp probe. I just purchased one (kind of like the one Alton Brown uses). So far all I've done is a chicken and was pleased with the results. I want to try a pork butt next and make some Carolina pulled pork. I'll probably wait for Spring as it's a little colder hear...

    Small pork tenderloin

    Thanks, I just bought 6 bags of Weber's Hickory Chunks (5 lb bag) for $ 2.96 at Home Depot. Bought 3 bags of Mesquite for the same price. Of course, where I live its snowy and 20 degrees today so its probably a winter clearance. Cabela's is out of stock on most of their chunks but I will...

    Small pork tenderloin

    My first venture with smoking was yesterday with a fryer. We have eaten Pork Tenderloins (the little ones as you do) but always seasoned and grilled. Next one is gonna be smoked. The problem I have right now is finding the different wood chunks. Home Depot has Mesquite and Hickory at half...

    First Success (?) Story

    Well, I tried out my new gizmo (see yesterday's post as New Guy from Ohio) and did a chicken. I kind of "winged" this one trying to figure out what I was doing. Soaked the Hickory chunks for an hour which I read somewhere in this forum. Took a fresh Amish fryer and put it in a plastic bag and...

    New Guy from Ohio

    You wouldn't believe what's happened here in the 4 1/2 years you've been gone. I'm at 75 and Union Centre which was a massive wild area with a new High School. Now....5 hotels, 20+ restaurants, 24 screen theater, 8 banks and my new warehouse. Thanks for your welcome and hopefully you are a...

    New Guy from Ohio

    I just wanted to intro myself. After looking at them for years I just bought a Cabela's Electric Smoker (I think that you pro's would label it an ECB). I've always been involved with Kitchen gadgets as well as outdoor grills. So, I started there. I'm a pharmacist who left that world years...

    New Guy...New Smoker

    I just bought an electric smoker from Cabela's and now I need to figure out what to do. I'm a whiz on Knife and Cigar forums but brand new to this one. Is there a "Search" function so I don't need to bother everyone with the questions you've answered a million times? Also, as I start...
