    New IPhone app - Smoked! Takes place of a paper journal with lots of add ons

    I got a chance to get with my smoker this weekend and smoked a couple of butts for pulled pork along with 15 pounds of country style ribs. Got a chance to play with the Smoked! app some more. I really like the voice recorder for inputting stuff. I input 4 different recipes in about 10 minutes...

    New IPhone app - Smoked! Takes place of a paper journal with lots of add ons

    I sent in a question to the app builder and he is already working on a change - allowing a spot for recording periodic internal temp readings and then posting them in a chart. This guy is like us and really loves to smoke! He is also a very good programmer that wants to make this the best it can...

    jeffs naked rub, finally purchased

    I don't believe those recipes were in the book - probably not perfected yet - but it is a great book with some wonderful ideas. I would recommend buying the recipe! I went through 4 batches last weekend alone as I was making ribs for the family and smoking 6 pork butts for a grooms dinner I am...

    jeffs naked rub, finally purchased

    I bought the recipes when I was doing my first smoke ever last spring. My wife loved it so much that I can't use anything else. I have a batch in a large shaker and a back-up batch in a ziploc in the freezer at all times! We love it because it has very little salt and can be used as liberal as...

    Finally made some respectable ribs - Q view

    Get the Recipe for Jeff's Naked Rub! My wife won't let me use anything else - and I'm not complaining! Well worth the couple bucks for the recipe - I like it because it only has 2 Tbsp of salt in the entire batch and I can use it as liberally as I want. Our best friends come for ribs and insist...

    My take on a Surf and Turf Fatty...... (pic heavy)

    The Surf & Turf fatty sounded so good I had to try it this past weekend - and it was awesome! I rolled out the steaks and pounded them flat, put in shrimp, sea scallops and freshwater crappie - seasoned it with some of Jeff's Naked Rub and some Old Bay seasoning on the seafood, bacon wrapped it...

    Another AMNPS-MES Question

    The problem might be that the fuel isn't deep enough for the lit pieces to carry on to the next ones - I had that trouble a couple times but now I really pack the items in and haven't had any problems since. The top vent needs to be opened enough to allow the smoke to move over the product and...

    MES trouble code help

    I have a small metal heater for under the desk that I plug in and warm up the thermometer inside the box. It gets warm enough and then the heating element kicks in. I let it warm up good and that helps really get it going. Us northerners need to do this for about 5 months when we prepare to...

    Smoking some Blue cheese and Swiss today. 24 degrees out. Perfect weather for a cold smoke!

    I just did my first cheese 10 days ago - took out of the smoker and immediately vacuum sealed it for 2 weeks. Should I have wiped them down before sealing? Maybe not sealed right away? I haven't tried the cheese yet as I am waiting for another 4 days to try. Any suggestions are helpful

    Smoking some Blue cheese and Swiss today. 24 degrees out. Perfect weather for a cold smoke!

    I smoked some pepperjack, gouda, swiss, & cheddar on Sunday - near zero when I started - put an electric heater in my MES, heated it up, then tried out my AMPS for the first time - resisted the temptation to sample - just vac-sealed them up - will let all know in a couple weeks when I get to eat...
