    Pink Salt

    I marinated some beef last night to make jerky and realized this morning I forgot the pink salt.  Is it possible to add it to each piece just before I put it on the smoker and will it work as effectively?

    The Grillette!!!

    A friend gave me one of these yesterday. The person he got it from says it originally sold for 97 cents in 1957. The pictures are not of mine but are pictures I found on the internet. Mine looks as if it has never been out of the cardboard. Everything is in it.

    A (very, I'm sure) Silly Question

    When I apply rub to a cut of meat I can't help but have a good portion of the rub stick to my hand and clump up, usually leaving that part unuseable. I don't actually "rub", I massage it into the meat. Do any of y'all have any tricks of the trade you'd care to share? I know this is minor in...

    Dumb Dog

    My dumb dog knocked my Maverick ET-7 dual probe transmitter off of the table it was on with her tail and now it quit working. This happened 3 hours into smoking a 5.25 butt. I tried everything I could think of to make it work again, but it's dead. The butt was for a little work party tomorrow...

    Crape Myrtle

    Hello everyone, Has anyone ever used Crape Myrtle? I have one fairly large tree we cut down last summer and it is now dry enough to burn. I believe it is hardwood, but am unsure if it's a suitable smoking wood, and if it is, what type of meat would go best with it. I appreciate any input.
