Some of the links on this forum allow SMF, at no cost to you, to earn a small commission when you click through and make a purchase. Let me know if you have any questions about this.
There was something in the update earlier this week that makes SMF not usable on my PC. All the ad files trying to load eventually lock my PC up and I have to do the old hard restart. I'm at work, so we probably have alot more filtering / security than the average home user. It has taken about...
Last Thursday I went digging in the freezer for some ground meat, and found a rack of spares hiding out in the back. I pulled them out thinking they would make for a good Sunday afternoon smoke, while i finished cleaning out my shed. (A 3 weekend project)
Here they are with the riblets cut...
I have to cook for two pretty large fundraisers coming up soon. (1 jambalaya and 1 pp sandwich) where I 'm going to need a massive amount of pork butts. Someone told me today that Sam's has butts by the case for $1.69lb. Has anyone ever bought these before? I assume they are the standard 2...
Well, with Saturday being a beautiful day, and a whole day of outside chores planned it seemed like a good day to do up a batch of yardbirds. I put the word out to the family and friends and chickens started showing up around 9:00. By the time I lit the fire at 11:30, I had 7 victims lined up...
My buddy Larry's dad passed away on Friday. His wife called me up on Saturday and told me that they had a bunch of out of town folks to feed after the funeral and asked me if I would smoke a brisket for them. Well, you don't turn down those kinds of requests, so I made plans to do it. I...
I just ordered a refurb Waring slicer from Cabela's for $49.00. I realize the reviews are mixed on this thing, but for 49 bucks, I'm willing to take a gamble. They also have quite a bit of their other meat processing equipment on sale as well. Check it out.
Hey guys, can anybody reccomend a dual probe thermometer that doesn't have the remote display. I'm looking for a setup like the ET-73 which displays both the smoker temp, and the meat temp, but I have no need for the remote capability. I'd rather just simplify everything and just have all my...
For years, I had the good fortune of having a butcher in my wife's family who would grind up my venison for me. The butcher was great, but the wife wasn't... so I no longer have a butcher in the family. That prompted me to purchase a meat grinder from Cabela's. I was processing my first...
Ok, I got this recipe for pumpkin soup. I had the idea (of course) to smoke the pumpkin instead of baking it in the oven to prep it for the soup. I've never prepared a fresh pumpkin, so I'm not sure what to do to get it ready for the smoker. I know I have to cut it open and scrape out the...
Well, last week I decided to smoke a Turkey for the LSU - Tennessee game. I started off with a 14# bird and injected him with my homemade injection featuring melted butter, olive oil and fresh garlic and herbs. I mix it all together and run it through a blender until it is...
Well, after cleaning and seasoning last weekend, the new Bellfab was ready for her maiden meat voyage, and just in time too, considering that it was mothers day weekend.
Saturday I smoked a rack of spares, 3 chickens and a turkey breast for the girlfriends mom. Two of the chickens were cut in...
This Saturday, I did a big Jambalaya tailgate for the LSU - BAMA baseball game. The pot started out with 8 lbs of good smoked sausage.
Then went in a 7 lb. BB, cubed. The blade bone went in the stock.
Then 20 lbs of leg quarters, boiled for stock and deboned.
Then 5 lbs of onions, 5...
Well, the big day has arrived. My new Bellfab arrived today. Craig did a great job on the smoker. This thing is built like a tank.
The freight company also did a great job of trying to rip one of the wheels off of it. Fortunately the axle is fine, so I just need a replacement wheel and I'll be...
Am I the only one who finds the programming on the Food Network has gone in the tank? When I first started watching FN there were good instructional shows like Essence of Emeril, Grillin & Chillin, East Meets West, Malto Mario etc....
Now the whole darn network is about 80% cake deccorating...
Back in the days before I had a smoker, or really knew anything about smoking, I used to smoke meat by lighting a fire on one side of my pit and putting the meat on the other side. Even though this runs much hotter than a true smoker, I didn't have sense enough to know it, and turned out some...
Hi guys. I am from Denham Springs La. (Near Baton Rouge) I have been smoking for a while casually. I have a cheapo Brinkman (R2D2) which I find myself loading to the gills on a lot of weekends, so I decided it was time to step it up a notch. I currently have a custom 48" SFB being...
