    SPATCHED TURKEY WAS TUFF !!!!!

    Did some turkey breasts (bone-in and brined for 3hrs before) at about 250-300 this weekend.  Pulled after about 2hrs and 160IT.  Rested for a good long time, they were perfect.

    Competition Blend Pellets

    I did some more smoking this weekend.  Tried some St Louis Style ribs with the ANMPS loaded up with Apple pellets again.  Did not work again.  I didn't protect the ANMPS from drippings, that was my problem this time. To confirm the ANMPS will burn these pellets at all I did a cold smoke test. ...

    First Cheese Smoke - Mozza with AMNPS

    After 2 weeks in the freezer (no room in the fridge) I tried my first block.  It was smoky!  Too much so really.  I put a few slices onto a pizza but mixed it with other cheese because it would've been too powerful.  I put the rest of the block back into the fridge in a ziplock bag for another...

    Competition Blend Pellets

    Flavour was pretty good.  The apple was fairly subtle.  Not a lot of experience for comparison though.

    Competition Blend Pellets

    I tried these this weekend.  Mixed results using my ANMPS, but don't think its related to the pellets themselves.  I tried using the apple with a large pan of baked beans and they wouldn't run, I believe too much moisture.  Also tried them with a pork butt sitting in sauce and a large (2-3...

    Competition Blend Pellets

    I have the apple pellets but haven't tried them yet.  Will be putting them on this weekend for a big pork shoulder.  Will let you know how they work in the AMNPS.  If they work out, I'll be buying a bag of competition as well.
