    ribs in a pan?

    Doing ribs tomorrow and following the recipe from the Myron Mixon book.  I made up the rub and the spritz and they are in the marinade now.  He says to put them in a foil pan and put that into the smoker, I've never done them that way and just wondering if you still get as much smoke flavor?

    salmon help

    Doing some salmon and seems to be going pretty quick.  I brined it over night, rinsed off and dried with paper towels, then put on a rack to dry and form the pellicle.  After about 2 hours it had a nice sheen and was a little tacky like its supposed to.  I'm using a GOSM and I put a needle valve...

    GOSM convert to charcoal?

    I've got the big GOSM but would like to use charcoal, I'm thinking I could just buy a big metal bowl and sit it in the opening in the bottom where the burner is and dump the charcoal in there?  I dont think I have vents on the bottom, just the top so I will probably have to put in a vent on each...

    new smoker

    Need a new smoker and was looking at the 40" Masterbuilt that Sams has.  I read a lot of good things on here but wondering what its like going from a GOSM to an electric smoker?  I loved my GOSM but it took a real beating this winter, got blown across the yard a few times and banged up pretty...

    great license plate

    Just saw a  car with license plate that read OD ON BBQ, thought it was great.  So I pulled up next to him at the light and gave him a smile and a big thumbs up, he must have thought I was hitting on him cause he nearly ran the red light to get away.  Anyways, thought it was a cool license plate.

    Brine?

    I've done a few turkeys now and they have turned out great but I want to brine one this time.  I've found a good brine recipe but not sure if I should change anything or cut back on the salt if I buy an "enhanced bird" which seems to be about all I see unless I want to spend $50.

    Char Griller DUO?

    Anyone have one of these?  My gas grill is about shot and I've been wanting to get a charcoal grill but like the ease of my gas grill so this seems to be the perfect solution.  Also I would get the side fire box so I could use it as a smoker.  Seems like a good all in one unit.

    pulled pastrami

    I had a party this weekend and was doing pulled pork so thought I'd try pulled pastrami also, turned out GREAT!  I've done pastrami 2 other times, smoked then steamed the next day and then sliced, so I just thought if I steamed longer I could pull it the same as pulled pork.  So I had 3 corned...

    awsome pastrami!

    So I did my first pastrami and it was GREAT! Looking at the spices at the store I found a McCormick pepper blend that had black, white and I think green pepper corns and allspice and coriander and the bottle had the hand grinder on the top. I think it was only about 3 bucks and worked fine. I...

    a few pastrami questions

    So I'm going to try pastrami this weekend for the first time. I've got a corned beef in freezer that I'm going to use. I've been reading on here and think I have a base plan but have just a few questions. I'm going to thaw it out and then soak/rinse in water so its not too salty. Should I...

    how hot can you GOSM get?

    I did a turkey last weekend and at highest setting I was getting just under 300, maybe 295. I have had it up to 350-375 before but for some reason it would not go over 300. I thought maybe my tank was low on fuel and maybe not enough pressure, so I put on my new full tank and it was the same...

    16lb turkey

    I found a 16lb turkey in the freezer yesterday so I'm going to smoke it this weekend. I've never done a whole turkey, only turkey breast. I remember something about doing ones this big at a higher temp so it doesnt stay in the danger zone too long?? So what is a good temp, 325? 350? I dont...

    how many have you bought?

    with all the great deals on corned beef this week its hard to stop buying them but really how much is enough?? I ended up with 3 a few weeks ago when I got them for $1.49. I fixed one Sunday, not smoked but simmered in the stock pot with taters and carrots, and my wife loved it and says "well...

    Was at the store this weekend and they had corned beef briskets on sale for $1.49/lb, that is the cheapest I've seen so I got 2 of them. They expired today so I put them in the freezer and going to try one next week. Any problems with freezing a corned beef? The package said use or freeze by...
