    Need diet friendly smoking ideas

    Actually that is pretty much wrong. You need your carbs. Whole wheat breads/pasta are good for you if ate in moderation, and potatoes are some of the best foods for you, especially sweet potatoes/yams. They just get a bad wrap because of their high glycemic index. And second, I know we all dont...

    First year under the belt w/ Qview

    Well more like 13 months, since I bought my first smoker. I bought a SnP. Over the last year, me and my roommates have used this little smoker so much, at first it was a pita to keep temp, and now I have her dialed in w/ little effort. So far we have smoked... 25 BBRs 1 spare rib 5 briskets 2...

    Its only December, but I wish summer was here already.

    I hate this cold. I wish summer was here. I cant wait for the pool, large BBQs with my friends, canoe trips, fishing, getting drunk and falling asleep/passing out next to the fire pit. I'm just kidding about the last part, but having fires in the backyard are really nice. I know I can still have...

    What's on the grill today fellas?

    I dont know if I'm gonna fire up the smoker today. I'm not gonna lie, I haven't for about 2 months, extremely busy with school(18.5hrs) and work. I just got done with my finals this last week, I had 7 . But we did have a nice shrimp boil last week. About 20people came over. We used one of...

    Foil = Boil

    Well for it to be "boil" the liquid would have to be around 212*F, and I dont see it getting that high of a temp when the smoke box only gets around 225-250, with ribs which are colder(in respect to the smokebox) sitting in the liquid, I highly doubt the liquid boils. So technically its not...

    My biggest butt to date.

    Well, I decided to smoke a butt for tailgating this weekend. I usually smoke smaller butts(6-7lbs) but I got a 11lb for some odd reason. I plan on smoking it Friday afternoon/night and reheating it in an aluminum pan on the grill(w/ the coals set off to the side). But I'm wondering if I should...

    Tailgating foods

    Hey, its been awhile since I've been on here. Football season starts for us this weekend, and I plan on dragging out the smoker. I was going to smoke some ribs like I usually do, but I only have about a 3-4 window to smoke. I was planning on some ABT's, wings, brats, and maybe a couple of mini...

    I cant make up my mind on what to smoke this weekend.

    BB's or pork butt. I cant make up my mind. I'm for sure smoking ABTs. I'd hate to smoke both because its just me here during the summer.

    First Butt smoke in a long time.

    I went ahead and smoked it last night. Started at 10pm, oven at 4:30 and finished around 7:30. I left it in the cooler(I fell asleep) for about 2 1/2 hours. I pulled it this morning, it was a little slimy if you wanna call it that. But it tasted pretty good. Sorry no Q-view I was walking around...

    First Butt smoke in a long time.

    Actually that sounds like a good ideal. Do you throw anything in with the pork when you put it in the fridge?

    The big smoke

    I pulled it, I took it up to 190. That may have been my problem. It was more hard to tear apart than it was tough, still good. But I think I also picked up the wrong one, it was super lean. But it was the only one they had when I went to the store.
