Ham & Cheese. :D

(well, actually "canadian bacon", which is really just ham from the tenderloin)

Salami, or maybe it's summer sausage w/ salami spices because it's not fermented and only relies on curing salts, I dunno. It's good though.

After 4 hours

Finally hit temp @ 10-1/2 hours after I bumped the smoker up a few degrees at the 8-1/2 or 9 hour mark...

Anyone smoking a turkey for Thanksgiving. I plan to. Brine, dry, olive oil and rub both sides of the skin, then smoked over charcoal and applewood. Finish in the oven on broil to crisp up the skin a bit. Thats my plan. I'll post some pics when the time comes.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Sounds good Mike. I think my smokers done for the year.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

It's going to be a turkey, but we are debating if we should spatchcock it. We haven't cooked one this way and I'm searching the Internet to figure out the cooking time at 325F. It's a 16 pounder and would have to fit on the Traeger.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

One in the smoker

One in the fryer

The fryers a new experience ... Fingers crossed

Thanks Mark! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.

Aloha all,

I've cooked it in the ground, and in the oven, but this is the first time I've done pulled pork in a Pit Barrel Cooker.

Hung an 8lb party ham
http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/x...psz7e3xcmp.jpg

3 hours in it hit 131* internal
http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/x...psihl1zcxv.jpg

5.5 hours temp hit 160 and I pulled it out, removed the skin, added more rub and 1/2 cup beer while foiling it up tight. 2 hours on grill an it made 190*. Resting now for 15 minutes.

http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/x...ps3mwrcxqj.jpg


7.5 hours total and tada. Picture is horrible as it was shot under fluorescent lighting. Please forgive.

http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/x...psllwpymnu.jpg

Should have used a lot more rub. Made sliders with King's Bakery sweet bread rolls and a wasabi aioli.

I have a lot to learn and will continue to visit here to learn from the masters. :tu


side note: I put the skin in a toaster oven at 350* for 20 minutes and it came out perfectly crispy with a great smoked flavor. At least something came out perfect.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Did a 5.5 lb point cut brisket on Saturday. The rub was Hungarian paprika, garlic powder, rosemary, salt and Madeira wine. Meat sat for two days in seasoning before going on WSM.

Cooked it to 160 on the smoker and then transferred to a covered Le Crueset with a little Madeira wine and cooked at 275 in oven until ready.

Came out lovely. We had it 1970 Ch. Pavie and 1993 Charbonniere CdP.

The main event was really a trio of 1963 VP; Fonseca, Taylor, and Niepoort.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Nice!

Maybe someday I'll unwrap the grill grate from my PBC. LOL. This might actually make me try something that uses the grate. For whatever reason, the PBC has always been about the hangers to me.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Two thick slabs of Bob's Bacon (as my friends kids refer to it as). One just a normal salt/dextrose cure, the other a maple syrup/coffee/salt cure. That second slab got an extra glaze of maple syrup. Rolling pecan smoke @ 175°.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I've been reading that people use mustard to coat their ribs as a glue for rubs and the mustard doesn't add any flavors. I've been using it in the oven to coat chicken and even fish and I don't think I'm picking up any mustard like flavors. Why is that? How does the mustard not add flavor to the meat?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

It's not that it doesn't, it's that it adds so little overall and what it does add is a flavor already found in the rub so youthat you don't notice it.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Chicken thighs stuffed with cheese and Jalapenoes and cheese, wrapped in bacon. Smoked over oak at 250 for 2 hours.

Temps in the low 20's last night proved to be no problem for the Assassin.

Doing some pulled pork and 3 racks of ribs for the Superbowl.

Looks good Dom! Get a moving blanket, helps a lot in cold temperatures!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Did a few racks of ribs this past Sunday on the Pit Barrel Cooker. (and have been leftovers all week!)

I am amazed at the consistent cook the PBC provides - at least when it comes to ribs. Absolutely outstanding every single time. Giving up a bunch of crappy cigars for this thing was easily the best trade I've made.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Isn't that basically all your cigars? :D

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Nothing on the smoker, too cold here. Did score 4, 20lb bags of Myron Mixom hickory pellets at Cabela's bargain cave for $6.09/bag.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

"crappy" :)

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Roughly 60 degrees today, fired up the pellet grill. Did a small brisket flat I've had in the freezer for some time. All grass fed beef from a local farmer. You can taste it. Only drawback was I used too much salt. Not in edible, but even a bit salty for me. The fat helps counter it a bit.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Looking for a inexpensive pellet smoker? http://tools.woot.com/?ref=cp_gh_tg_5

This is the one I bought last year for $330 or so. Love this grill/smoker.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Looking closer, this version has a analog controller. The one I bought last year, DLX model, has a digital controller. Not sure how much of a diffrence that makes. Decent smoker/grill for an entry level price.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Saw a killer grill at this tiny store, near the taco joint I frequent here in Hermosillo, MX. They have a grill that looks like a hybrid of a Santa Maria and a La Caja China. Put the coals on top of the box, with a grate you can raise/lower. Then open the doors on the front of the box and use it as an oven.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Do not give me any ideas...

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Ill snap a pic next time I'm by there.

Found a website for the place. http://eltizne.com/es/

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Those are cool! And gorgeous builds too.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Yea, very nice craftsmanship. The one small one I saw in the shop has two swing out doors instead of one drop down.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Got a Montreal smoked meat style brisket lined up for tomorrow. I am going to steam it in beer for a bunch of hours and then just finish it on the smoker.

Supposed to get my car serviced in the morning, so I am debating whether to start it before I leave on when I get back. It's 6.1 lbs. I will be away for about 6 hours and could just finish on the smoker when I get back, but if I am delayed it could be tragic.

Any suggestions?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I corned a brisket for St. Patrick's Day, but my wife decided we should make pastrami, so this just went on the smoker.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

After 6 1/2 hours on the grill and 2 1/2 hours of steaming, the pastrami was fantastic.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Looks delicious Tom! I'll take a pastrami on rye please:D
