    Right from the Farm 6 nice Chickens! Off the TMLE

    We are lucky to have a poultry farm not far from our house. These chickens are really good not the cheapest, but worth the drive and price. These brined overnight. I'm just now firing up a chimney. I'll report back when they go down!

    First Brisket of the Season. Plenty of pics!

    Another beautiful day in sunny Buffalo! Firing up a chimney of lump. I picked up this 15lb Brisket. I'll trim off part of the flat for a future smoking. It cooks more evenly and there is more than ample meat. Rubbed up with "big bad beef rub" collected from another site. I'll be...

    Reverse sear Porter House's and a couple of Tails!

    This will be good. Fired up a chimney of lump. This Brinkmann TMLE really does a nice job at this. My firebox will be the grill. No charcoal basket and the smoking chamber will bring these steaks up to 110 internal in about 45 min. These are 2 inch thick! Seasoned up with the...

    Baby Backs in Buffalo lots of "Q View"

    Favorite butcher hooked me up with 3 beautiful slabs. I'll do these 3-1-1 with honey, butter, and brown sugar during the foil stage. A final sauce for the last hour out. Trimmed them up as the rub components assembled. Built a fire a nice layer of lump and hickory. Ready to go...

    The Turducken was voted off the Smoker!

    I ordered a Turducken for Thanksgiving, I was planning on smoking it, but my girls thought It would be better just to have it cooked in the oven in the kitchen. I conceded. I have smoked several turkeys with great results and everybody liked them. The Turducken is in the oven now. I can...

    Nice Reverse Sear Whole Beef Tederloin!

    Had my butcher trim and tie a nice tenderloin. Lit up a chimney. Instead of my basket I will spread the coals on the regular grate that is in the firebox. This way I use my firebox as a grill. I really love this smoker. For my needs it's just perfect. The firebox is plenty big to use as a...

    Nice to have a Cabela's in your backyard!

    They had their grand opening last week. Nice store, well staffed, friendly. Picked up an injector. $6.00 less than the online price. Could have spent a lot of time and a lot of cash! I've got a pretty big cook of a packer and 3 racks of baby backs coming up Sunday!

    Planning a Turducken for Thanksgiving...Couple of questions

    I ran a search, but am wondering something. I've done several chickens and a couple whole turkeys, both of which I have brined overnight prior to smoking. All came out great. The butcher that prepares the Turducken gives several custom stuffing options. You get it cook ready all tied up nice...
