Re: What's in your smoker?
Okay read through about 15 pages of this thread.
Have an nice gas grill like Bsmokin, but want to get into smoking. Would you guys recommend starting out with a WSM or something else? I see the dedicated smokers at the hardware stores etc and I just dont know which way to go. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
For a family sized smoke it is hard the beat the WSM.

Just found a New Braunfels Smoker for basically free.
Think I may grab it and learn with it then upgrade. |

Re: What's in your smoker?
There are a couple of easy modes that will make it easier to cook with though. I have an older one in my garage that I used a lot before I got my Lang. I don't know how old yours is that you found, but mine is made from fairly heavy ga. metal. Some of the newer ones are a bit thinner and it's harder to keep the temperature level.
I'll look around for a typed copy of the mods, if I can't find them I'll re-type them and post them. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
I was looking for a NB Smoker when I ended up buying my Char-Griller. I was PI$$ed when I found
out they were no longer making the "quintessential" smoker, and had gone on to either be sold or just changing the most important materials feature of the thing that made em famous. I had ignored the company forever, I could have ccared less about smoking. The one day I caught fire and it was too late. :(. I have enjoyed my Char-griller, though. So while it may not get the props of the new favorites in the smoke biz, if it is a thick metal unit, you got a winner. Like I have said too many times, I just indirect grillnsmoke my meats. There is plenty of space. |

I wondered also on if the hig fructose was a good thing or not, but it didnt seem to hinder the flavors and the meat was dripping in juice from inside to out, even after resting for 10 hours. I would love to get ahold of some syrup made with cane sugar, i bet it would give a great flavor. |

Did you use corn syrup or high-fructose corn syrup? Big difference |
Re: What's in your smoker?
It was corn syrup but after you asked, i went back and looked at the ingredients and it has some high fructose in it.

One of these days I'll see if I can dig up a scientific explanation if there's any advantage to using HFCS and/or CS either alone or in conjunction with refined sugar in brines, or rather, how, if anything, it might affect the meat differently. |
Re: What's in your smoker?
From earlier this weekend - I only took one cell phone pic after everything was finished and rested. This was about 11 p.m. and I was shot.
LtoR - Cubed brisket point I turned into burnt ends, sliced brisket flat, and pork butt. I started with a 9-lb packer brisket and an 8.5 pork butt and cooked for about 12 hours on my cheap, Brinkman Gourmet with lump charcoal and a mix hickory and cherry wood. I've done a brisket before, but this was my first pork butt - and I will definitely be making more of them! http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...101/photo1.jpg |
Re: What's in your smoker?
