    Ribs and salt in new MES30 and AMNPS w/QView

    Did pork ribs, and tips, with 1 3/4 rows of apple in the AMNPS. Mustard rub before Famous Dave's rub. I was in a hurry so I grabbed the Dave's. I was quite good. I just smoked for 4 hours, no foil wrap or anything. I wanted to keep it simple on first run of the MES30 and AMNPS. I put some plain...

    Mini Fridge

    Read a lot of posts on cold smoking. Great info gang!! Question I have is: Can I use a operating/working mini fridge to cold smoke? I found some CL finds for cheap and would add small vents for smoke flow using the AMPS (sp?). I ask because I am going to try some belly bacon and want to really...

    Buckboard Bacon

    I wanted to give BBB a whirl, so here it is. I used Pop's brine but only used just over 1/3 cup salt. Everything else was to recipe. I have not sliced it yet, as I am letting it mellow in the fridge for a few days. I have tried a sample and everyone is right: I don't think I'll buy store bought...

    Interior of mini fridge

    Heat diffuser

    I have a 3 year old Kenmore propane grill. The heat diffusers are already rotted away. What type of metal can I buy to make my own supply, rather than buy new replacement parts for $$$$$$? I dont care if its one long diffuser or 4 for all four burners. Thanks!! Mark

    My "test" cold smoker

    Until I am comfortable with the cold smoking process, this is my $20 cold smoke build. I started small, just like with my beer/wine hobby. I then, when had the process down, went bigger. Obviously the bin will have the meat/cheese on a rack above a bag of ice. I did a dry run, and the smoke...
