Pretty cool. Thanks, Bob.
I'd never be able to make them that small and get the cheese to stay in. :)
I really need my yard to defrost so I can get out again.

Adam, any thoughts on the A-maze-N smoker I see in the Velveeta pic?
I picked one up but have yet to try it. I've been too lazy to shovel a path to the shed.
Was it easy to light and keep going? Any detectable taste difference?
I guess the Macgyvered Coffee can/soldering gun has been laid to rest.
Are you using pellets or dust?
I have the Amazen Tube Smoker. I've only used it once with the included pellets but I had great results using a large charcoal grill. I just put it onto one of the charcoal pans and used the cooking surface along with the warming rack for my items. I smoked a ton of peppers and some cheese. Peppers got dehydrated and ground for seasoning. Cheese got waxed and saved for later.

I bought a bag of apple wood pellets at BassPro that I'll be using next time I cold smoke. I had no issues with heat or it going out the first time. I lit with a torch as recommended. I think if you follow their specific instructions you'll be fine.

This was the best brisket I've ever made. Think I'm a convert!

I bought the whole packers at Costco and have to admit, I was shocked at the price. I don't remember brisket being $6.50 a pound.

I smoke most of my meats a bit above "normal". I do port butts around 250-275. I do brisket around 275-300. I've only had one complaint of dry meat and that was when it was eaten after reheating, (and not reheated by me). My cook times are usually a bit quicker.

BTW, if there's an RD near you, get a free membership and save money.

http://www.restaurantdepot.com/

I get Choice grade brisket, often certified angus beef, for under $4/lb all day everyday. Under $3.50 if it's on sale. Bone in pork butt was on sale for $1.24/lb last time I was there and $1.12/lb if you buy a case (6 twin packs). Chicken leg quarters are usually under $0.60/lb too. Bacon I get 15 lbs for $24.

Sadly,

True but it doesn't specify that the business has to be in food service. Any business license will work.

I know it's not for everyone. My wife has a baking business on the side; bread, specialty cakes, etc. A $40 visit to the county clerk got us a lifetime membership to R.D.

Thanks Mike; We do have one here in Louisville, but never been there. My wife and I do have a little business that may work. How is it different from Costco/Sams for food? Online shows mostly resteraunt equipment. Is it worth it for the meats and other food items alone? Thanks.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 
Mike, I do see your prices for choice brisket which is much better than Costco, at least the last time I visited. My above question was overall how you think, if you know, their prices compare to a Costco. Thanks.
