Re: What's in your smoker?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I'm slowly getting the hang of the UDS, smoking over direct heat (as intended with UDS's) vs using a heat barrier or diffuser. I'm trying different methods with each cook.

Last night I did some wings and beef ribs which I picked up at Costco. The ribs were in for 4.5 hours at 240F.

Wow, those look fantastic.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

yep, looks like you're having a real tough time there...NOT!.....Nice ribs!:dr

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Thanks guys! I'm having tons of fun with the drum smoker. I think I've punched enough holes in the drum and plugged up old ones experimenting with grates and diffuser placement....lol..

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Looks like I'll be firing up the WSM next weekend as we're expecting about 30 people over after church. I'll probably throw on a couple of butts for sure and other meat will probably be burgers/brats/hot dogs. Might make my first attempt at some baked beans on the smoker....

Trying to decide for sure what to do-welcome any suggestions you might have.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Did I say Blues Hog... uh I meant Hog Blues... no Bog Hues... no Blog Uwes!!! Yeah that's it!!!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Oh... I picked up the case of ribs today along with a bunch of chicken thighs. Gonna pick a bunch of japs in the morning for ABTs and will be eating high on the hog tomorrow night!!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Right on Brent!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

the ribs i made were a bit salty then I liked... any tips on some stew or something that i can do with the leftovers? I have 1 rack left...

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Smoked a pack of CSR's, a pork loin, and a meatloaf yesterday on the WSM. Should be set for the week now. :tu
I've got to say that the ease and consistency of pork loin can't be beat! It is becoming one of my favorites.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

so i took the last rack of ribs... tore it into bits.... 4 cups of chicken stock... 2 cups of diced tomatoes... 3 carrots diced... 3 celery stocks diced.... had 2 cups of mixed beans soaking in water for a few hours...threw it in all in a big pot... with some oregano, paresely, and thyme... boiled for 3 hrs... threw some barley in there... and came out with an amazing stew :)

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Hog Apple baked beans on smoker!
3 or 4 slices bacon, diced
2 (16 oz) cans pork and beans, mostly drained (modified to 2 28-oz cans Bush's Baked Beans - see note below)
1/2 c. Blues Hog BBQ Sauce (or other sweet-spicy favorite)
1 lb. smoked leftover smoked pork or beef, more or less, or 1 lb crumbled cooked pork sausage
1 can apple pie filling (chop up the big chunks some)
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 c. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. Mustard (prepared)
1 tsp chipotle or cayenne powder (optional, to taste*)
1 tsp Blues Hog barbecue rub (or your favorite de jour)

Brown bacon, and saute onion and green pepper in bacon grease. Mix in remaining ingredients. Bake at 325º for 1 hour, or simmer on stovetop in large pot for 30 minutes if you don't have time to do them in the oven. Serves 12.
A couple hours in the WSM till thickened.


*This is a rather spicy recipe due to the chipotle/cayenne powder. Feel free to leave it out if you'll be feeding those who prefer a less spicy taste.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

How did those ribs turn out Brent?

I nieghbor droped off a mess of pecan wood for me this evening. As soon as it starts to cool off a bit, I'm going to fire off the big girl myself. When are you going to be up in my neck of the woods again?
