    Slice a Chuck Roast for Sandwiches?

    Have any of you ever sliced a chuck roast for sandwiches?  I would prefer it at medium rare but worry that this cut would be too tough.  Any thoughts?  Maybe marinating it would tenderize it? thanks,

    Resurrect or not to Resurrect?

    Congrats on the new little one!  I wouldn't restore it yet - I'd use it!  Instead of smoking a cigar in honor of your little girl, smoke some ribs.  Rust only ads character to a good smoker - call it patina and move on.  That thing looks great.

    Turkey Breast Brine

    I'm in the middle of brining 4 turkey breast halves (3 lbs each for a total of 12 lbs). I know that the general rule is 1 hour of brining for 1 lb. of turkey - so does this mean that I need to do it for 3 hours or 12 hours?

    chicken and salmon qview

    no - i didn't brine the fish. I just used a little salt, pepper and olive oil. The smoker was at about 300 degrees so the salmon cooked for only about 45 minutes. It came out very moist without the brine.
