My camera was in my other car, so I didn't have access. Too bad as the lamb looked great.
I like to shop at Cash & Carry too. Their pork is good as is their beef.
Bend Oregon! Great Place.
I cooked it the other day. IT was 140° and it was perfect.
It cooked at about 300°.
I jazzed it up with garlic, S&P, Rosemary & Olive Oil.
Next time I'll just use S&P. I used a little apple wood &
didn't really like that. I've been using Pecan on everything...
I've got a 10.lb "Natural Free Range" Turkey that is thawing in the fridge right now.
We've never bought a frozen turkey, but had to this year. The wrapper states, "May
contain up to 6% Retained Water, contains no artificial ingredients, no preservatives,
only minimally processed.
On the...
I love lamb, and tried smoking a boneless piece of leg one time. It turned out dry.
I would love to hear from folks who smoke this delightful meat successfully.
What wood do you use?
What rub do you use?
How hot & how long?
I just bought a 3.7 lb piece of boneless leg of lamb and want to...
I have been reading about the meat enhancers called FAB. Can anybody tell me about these injectables? Naturally, the webpage selling them says they are the greatest thing possible for smoking meats. But are they? If they are, I'm in, but if they are not, I'd rather save my money, as they are...
I have an original circa 1960's Japanese Kamado #3.
I would like to find a metal top vent (cap) that fits.
Does anybody know where I can purchase a top vent?
Thanks!
Stan... In a WSM all wood seems like it would be a lot of hassle.
I have a friend with an offset box - like the one in your Avatar, and he too uses
only wood, but to use all wood in a WSM - I'm not sure how it is done.
I haven't actually had any "smells" with the Competition brix over the...
5 o'clocker- I used the blue bag when I first started smoking some years ago,
out of ignorance and ease (they are sold everywhere). But I too, once I got
hip to the Comp Brix - that's all I use, except for this bag I had to buy the other day!
Not sure why places like Home Depot don't carry...
I don't burn through the charcoal too fast, but I figured that the charcoal would
burn uneven (too hot at the open vent vs no heat over by the closed 2 vents)
which would make the meat cook uneven - even hot on that one side.
If it does not create an uneven heat, I might try it, because...
Johnny,
I dump and wait too, but haven't used water for a long time.
I filled my water bowl with sand, then set a foil covered terracotta
plant /pot tray on top of the sand filled bowl.
I like the consistency of the sand a lot better than water.
It is interesting that you use only one...
Also, I noticed that the lump in my local store was either Hickory or Mesquite.
Lately I have been adding Pecan chunks or Apple chunks to my Competition brix.
I like the flavors.
I have used Hickory so much, in the past, that I am a little tired of the taste, and frankly,
I've never much...
I have a WSM and have never used lump, although it is easy to get.
Would it be advantageous to use in a WSM? I always use the
Kingsford Competition brix, and they do the trick and are easy to
use - although not always easy to find.
OK! The ribs turned out great and the "smell" from the blue bag brix did not taint the meat!
Has anyone used lump without adding wood? Does it give you a smokey taste (without adding wood)?
I went to smoke some ribs today and needed to buy more competition charcoal briquettes.
I could not find them - only the original blue bag briquettes.
OMG! What a smell they put off. Is this smell safe to eat?
I used to use the blue ones, years ago with my grill, but with the grill I would...
Jesse,
Can you purchase a new fan from PitMaster, so you don't have to buy 1000?
I always thought PitMaster looked like a piece of junk. I remember their "warranty" wasn't
worth a dime when I looked into them long ago...
I agree, an 18.5" for 4 people is a breeze, although I've fed many more with it too.
Remember, people are eating other things besides the meat that comes out of the WSM.
Raising the temp up to 350° is typically no problem, although for "smoking" who actually
needs 350°? For baking - with...
I can put 6 slabs (rolled - not flat) easily into my 18.5", 3 on top, 3 down below.
I've done 8 (4 & 4), and you could do 10 I think, but I but my raw ribs in 3 packs
so the 3 & 3 works perfect.
I like the 18.5 vs the 22 because for a family of 4 or a few guests it has been plenty large
and...
Go to eBay and search for this:
Gasket - Weber Smokey Mountain high temp Nomex seal mod smoker bbq 18.5 22.5 WSM
Cost $27 and the guy ships fast and is very helpful.
18" vs 22" depends on how much you are going to be smoking at a single time.
The larger the smoker = the more you will spend...
