Getting past all that and just looking at the device...

I suppose you could, although it takes time for the smoke to penetrate and I don't know how well that will or won't work with larger pieces and the ziplock bag trick like she was using on the salt. I'm sure it would work to infuse a bag of cheese cubes though, and if you're careful, even shredded cheese or slices, so long as you don't mind the taste of fresh smoked cheese - it can be kind of different than after it has had some time for the flavors to meld while resting in a vacuum sealed bag.:2

Will somebody PLEASE smoke something this weekend?? Haha, I am going to thaw out a pack of small bone
spares tonight, the old three racks to a pack packs. That should fire up the weekend a bitsky. Might ought
to get a sack of taters foh ta make up some tater salad. Kart over to the place where they stack the vegetables,
I'll have to find where that part of the store is, though. Get me some sweet taters. Some comfort food for the
new year. No cabbage or black-eyed peas for me.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 
I will be doing a couple of butts, possibly a brisket, and more than likely a couple of slabs of ribs New Years Eve for a small group of friends that are going to ring in the New Year with us. Of course, a couple of cigars will be offered up as burnt offerings as well (provided I can kick this bug my office passed to me).

On a side note...my daughter and I met a friend from out of town yesterday at a local BBQ joint. As we were leaving, I saw a mobil unit in back so we stepped around to have a look. It was a Klose moble unit. Very sweet!

Holy crap, halfway down the PAGE??
Here are the Baby Backs from this weekend past. As you can see, I began slicing them up way before
I remembered to take photos. As it was snowing out, I decided that once they were smoked I would bring
them inside to finish the cooking wth sweet baby ray's. In an hour, my fire would go down to near zero.
It was tought getting them smoked. As you can see, I did not even let the glaze carmelize. I just ate dem.
Sorry you have to see the smoke ring COLD, this is four days later, haha.

T.G 01-19-2011 05:48 PM

Re: What's in your smoker?
 
Nice looking ribs Brad, even 4 days old.

Weather here has been pretty much crap for the last two weeks straight. Rainy, foggy, drizzle, high winds - everything but snow. Haven't lit a grill or BBQ since the 31st when I cooked the fatties, I'm starting to go into withdrawal symptoms.

Some good lookin' eats guys... I haven't fired up the smoker in so long I may not remember how. My son is living with us for this term in school. He has been begging for some ribs so this weekend it is. I've been dying to make/smoke some sausage to I may throw that in the mix as well.

Kristys kids want some fish and ribs. I know I know odd combo this weekend. I did just see on Diners, Drive ins and Dives a place that did fish ribs maybe kill two birds with 1 stone. Naa we have a good sale on baby backs this weekend and they have some wild salmon on sale as well. I have not smoked salmon before. Do I go with a lighter wood?

Smokin Gator 01-19-2011 06:57 PM

Re: What's in your smoker?
 
Frank lots of purist would say you didn't smoke salmon unless it was with alder. To each his own... I like apple and you should be able to find some of that laying around in NC!!! I always brine the salmon first, but I can't really tell you why. I just always have.

You do realize that it's all your fault, right? You're the guy who got me hooked on making them with your "Super Fattie Contest" challenge thread and I've been trying to perfect them ever since. They do make awesome herf food BTW, so thanks! :tu
