I made a ground beef fatty stuffed with cheese, mushrooms and spinach on the Weber kettle. Along side that I added a pan of doctored-up beans with some leftover smoked rib trimmings, other spices, etc ...
Once those were done I grilled up a few chicken breasts for salads later in the week. It was a productive session! |

I did a reverse seared, smoked tri-tip last night. Using bourbon soaked oak chips I did a short smoke until the internal temp read 120°F then waited for the coals to turn red hot for the quick sear.

Re: What's in your smoker?
This is my kind of thread! I love cooking on my 22.5 WSM.
I just recently bought a BBQ Guru DigiQ DX...talk about set it and forget it! It makes cooking on the WSM easy. A few pictures: http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...k/IMG_8238.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...k/IMG_8316.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...k/IMG_8318.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...k/IMG_8332.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...8/IMG_8371.jpg |

http://www.bbqaddicts.com/blog/recip...buffalo-turds/ I modified a bit-added some shredded cheese to cream cheese, used a BBQ seasonin in lieu of paprika/cayenne pepper, and didn't use any kind of sauce with it. It calls for a sweet sauce like the berry sauce from Arby's that would be really good. Smokin Gator gave me some suggestions I'm going to use next time around, but these were good. I had 24 halves on Sunday and only put 3 in the fridge (wife ate 1). :dr |

Did you have to drill a hole in your WSM for the DigiQ or does it connect thru one of the vents? |

Re: What's in your smoker?
THIS WEEKEND??? Oh, a sh*tload of bacon, lol. The one man on the boards who does NOT need bacon is going
to smoke about a half a pork belly. I am not happy about the way it is cut up, but I am gonna smoke it. Yay. It is in stapler sized slabs. But in the end, as long as it's BACON, who cares that it is cut up already? :r |

I did the newspaper thing for many, many years. I prefer the burner because it's faster, simpler & cleaner. Nothing wrong with newspaper though.

Re: What's in your smoker?
I had a roomate in NO that used to LOVE to cook out and have summer holiday-type parties, but he NEVER cooked
the fuel out of the charcoal before putting on his meat, and his food always tasted like gas. People would tell him politely that they liked it, and maybe they liked petroleum chicken. Once I realized that you could start coals with a little ball of paper, I was amazed and hooked on chimnies forever. I never bought another brique of gassed charcoal or bottle of fluid. Well, the theory anyway. I have no chimney. I build a little fire of yard twigs, and once it burns a little, stack coals on top of that. One day I may get one. HD had em for 7.95 the other day, lowest I had seen. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
My god, I had no idea bacon was so complicated, haha. I thought you smoked a pork belly and you had bacon.
I did a little reading today after buying the meat. I was like, $hi+...this is hard, lol. So now I am brining the meat and will continue to mess around with it through Sunday midday. Then I am gonna smoke it. Like I said I think in another post, the pork belly was cut up into stapler/butterdish sized pieces when I got it, so it will brine a little quicker I think. If I don't screwup this batch, I will do my second pack soon thereafter. They were both approximately half a belly. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
Back when I was using my NBBD offset, I used an old Folgers coffee can that I had cut the top and bottom out of and punched holes along the bottom edge to allow a bit more air flow thru. I would set it on the grate of the firebox, put in some newspaper and fill it up the rest of the way with lumb charcoal and light. when the coals were going nicely, I used a pair of pliers to lift the can off the grate, spilling the coals into a nice little mound and wala, fire.
My :2:2 |
Re: What's in your smoker?
I don't drink coffee, haha. But if I spot a can, I WILL make one. Mostly cause I know the concept of the minion method,
but to tell the truth, I hate to place cold briquets on a hot fire and close the lid, same basic thing, right? Same concept as a maze?? How the smoke from charcoal lighting doesn't affect the flavor is beyond me. When I go out to the backyard and see my temps have dropped, I usually place another 10-15 briques on the fire and close the lid. I can't help but think that's a bad idea. But anyway, I dig the chimnies. Oh and Steve, as Quint said, 'I got that beat'. I used to use a tube of heavy-ish foil to make a one-use chimney, but that thing burns right through that cheap BigLahts foil, lol. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
Even though I use coals to get the fire started, I used wood afterwards. Same as I do in the Lang. So I didn't worry about adding cold coals to the fire, I just fed the fire more fuel (another stick). I also put the sticks of wood on top of the firebox to warm them up before just tossing them in. Again, I do the same basic thing with the Lang, but only with quater sticks of wood.
BTW, I don't drink canned coffee, but my dad does, so I just grabbed a few cans that he was throwing away. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
I use a chimney to start my oak, which I use for the heat in my smoker. Works just the same a charcoal. I usually try to get some smaller pieces to put in the chimney but then i work my way up to log size pieces. I'm a pretty hands on kind of guy so I only use wood when i'm smoking meat.
|
Re: What's in your smoker?
I used to do that, too, I hated to PAY for charcoal when I had all the fuel I needed in my backyard, which is
heavily wooded. But I had some charcoal as a backstop in case high winds were not expected, lol. Now I am just kind of lazy and use charcoal, but in truth, I can control the smoke a little better with coals and wood. And as I have become a freaking smoke-god in my own eyes and in the eyes of my co-workers, lol, I have been ever more concious of the way my smoke is used. OH, and something that separates me from most of you is, I have no firebox, so it is much more critical for me to choose my actual fuel. But in the end, it's all good in the hood, we love what we do, that's why this is about the biggest thread in CA, lol. Looking forward to some good pics this weekend. I think West TN is getting peed on this weekend, so it will be all I can do just to get my bacon smoked. But I will take pics of that, too. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
