    MES Meltdown.....

    I guess it's about time and I'm due. My 2 year old 40" MES decided to die on me with 20 pounds of butt and 22 pounds of beef brisket ready to shove in it. Mine has the cover plate on the back so I pulled it and sure enough..... one of those goofy connections had gone South. Seems to me like it...

    Survived another Family Pig Roast

    This will be the third year using the Pig Smoker my brother made for my Dad. Wanted to share a few pics. We finally have this thing figured out and this year was by far the best smoke we've had. We smoked a half pig along with 3 full packers. Smoked them about 12 hours then dropped to a holding...

    Friends of Ron Man

    I wanted to drop a note here to the folks that know the Ron Man.... Ron P.... he is in the hospital not doing well. They had found a blockage in his intestines that had been causing his problems for the last 6 months or so and before they could do anything about it, it had ruptured. They told...

    I'll never steam Crab Legs again!

    Decided to try and smoke up some of the fresh Apalachicola Oysters I brought back from Panama City and also had some Snow Crab legs I caught on sale. Put them in the smoker with some alder pellets for about 45 minutes. Ron suggested that I shuck a few of the oysters and put some butter...

    Just got back from a trip from Panama City and brought back a cooler full of fresh Apalachicola oysters. Gonna throw a few in the smoker this week. This was supper. I found out I can suck em down faster than I can shuck em.

    Butt.... a little different method.

    I like to slam a few butts in the MES around 8:00 in the evening, throw the smoke to it for about 4 hours, then foil it in a pan and set the MES on 200 and go to bed. I did this with 4 of em last night. Pulled them out about 9:00 this morning and they were at 183 internal and tender as butter. I...

    Used my 3 year warranty card at Sams today!

    I've been waiting for the new MES to hit our local Sams club. I bought mine almost exactly a year ago and have had problems with it reaching temp the way it should. I could smoke for hours and never get above 238. Although that worked fine for most of the stuff I smoke, it didn't get where I...

    A Packer and Dino Bones.....

    I ran into some Dino Bones at Food City that actually had meat on them. I also ran into a really nice, small packer so I decided to have the Dinoz for an appetizer and then eat the brisket for the meal. Very simple... Reds rub on the packer and EVO and CBP on the Dinoz. Check out the...

One batch I put some rub on and the other batch I marinaded in Yoshidas Hawaiian Sauce for a couple of hours...

    Stuffed.... Tenderloin!

    I've been away from my computer and haven't been able to upload any pics for the forum so I'm going to do a little catching up. This is one of my favorite things to do with a tenderloin. Stuff it. This is a tenderloin and not a loin...... There are two to a pack and you can't see the mark down...
