    Smoked Ice (cubes) with Q-View

    It sounded so interesting that I had to try it for my Sunday Football Game Bloody Mary.  Glad I did.  Took a couple of hours to melt, used Apple wood. 3-4 smokes cubes (along with plain ice) in a Pint glass seems to be right..... 5 was too smoky, 2 was not smoky enough. If you take your time...

    Went to the Farner's market and scored some nice hot peppers.   In the smoker to add some good flavor and to dry them out.  I'll grind them in the food processor first, then grind them finer in the little coffee grinder.  Nothing better to add on......... almost everything

    I've learned the hardway

    Short story: Twas the Sunday before Thanksgiving, and it was 15 degrees in Wisconsin. The pork butts and meatloaf went in at 4:00 am to be ready for the 12:00 game. The Brinkman Vertical smoker, all wrapped in mattress pads and canvas (a custom jacket) wasn't keeping the heat at 250 degrees...

    Turkey necks

    I owe my neighbor a favor - and he wants me to smoke him up a bunch of turkey necks. Not having ever considered this a food, I am a little at a loss here. Anything special need to be done? Will use a mix of hickory and apple wood (or maybe mesquite/apple) with my normal liquid of...
