In an effort to help each other learn from our mistakes I'm throwing out a "feed"back challenge...
Tell us about a smoking failure. What went wrong. Was it fixable. What did you learn.
Here's a recent one from myself....
Made a batch of deer jerky recently I wanted to come out a little moister so I basted the strips with BBQ sauce for the last 45 minutes or so. The sauce caramelized and made things way to sticky. Flavor was a bit off. I was able to salvage things by rinsing the strips under cold water and using my thumb to scrub off the excess. Press dried them immediately after with paper towels and they were OK. Caused me some smokin' stress and wasted some time that could have been better spent prepping something else to smoke
