ok. Makes sense.

I did this for the first time last year. Came out great, but I made one mistake.... When doing the ice bag on the breast, make sure you pull the turkey out of the fridge and let it warm up on the counter slightly before putting the ice bag on. I p…

I go with the chimney starter. Seems to work well in my windy location. I have tried them all and if the little holes on the bottom of the grate are clogged with ash, nothing seems to work. Give the left over charcoal a good swirl to knock the loo…

Consensus is about 15 min/lb un-stuffed at 325-350?
-
After the first smoke, when do you begin the second smoke? Do you let the meat temp. cool? Or can you pull, season, and start the second smoke? I am guessing the second smoke will not take as long.

How many pounds was the ham pre-cook?
-
How did this turn out for you? I have a 25lb. "corned"ham, which I belive is brined but uncooked. I am looking for temp and time cook.. Thanks

Ok. Looks yummy. What are we looking at for time, temp, and set up. I have been requested to bring a breast to t'giving dinner.

You might want to stop by the pet store and purchase a small plastic dog crate fan. They run on batteries. Start the fire. Draft door all the way open, lid open. Let it roll like this for 2-5 minutes. When you have a nice fire, close the top. but ke…

Found out through the Naked Whiz that RO is sold as the Wegman's Lump at Wegman's. I thought it looked good when I dumped it out.

thx
-
Ahh, no.no.no. I am talking about an aluminum rain cap sold for very small chimneys and such, not the ceramic cap. Sorry, should have specified. This cap will fit over the daisy wheel. Looks like a mushroom.

Well remember, there ia about a 20-30 degree difference between the dome and the grate. Might not sound like much, but when you are cooking something for 17hours, it could make a difference.

Ya think? My motto is, "If it is worth doing, it is worth overdoing."

OR, they were sixk of paying gas prices.

Did it just get out of the pool?

Good point. MAPP is LPG, found this link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAPP[/url]

Did 2 at 650 for 30 secs. each side. They were gray with a little sear on the outside and raw and cool in the center. Yummy. I used to kill Tuna. Not any more. Steaks were the pre-paackaged ones from Trader Joes. Should be pretty uniform in size and…

I saw the Giada cooking epsiode from your handle pick on the Food Network last night. I almost fell over laughing. My fiance didn't get it...I did though. :laugh:

A trick I use to to force air into the bottom vent. Go to Petco or Petsmart and look for a small battery operated fan for a dog crate. Throw some batteries in it and start you fire. After about 5 minutes. Put the fan directly in front of the bottom …

Or a tire in your lumo bag.

I had the same problem first time I did a beer can chicken, but my chx was so upright that the dome thermo actually split the breast when i closed the lid and some of the top of the chicken closed the vent at the top. Had to reposition. I have heard…

Slap 'yo 'momma is good stuff. But, it is very salty and very spicy. You can't use it like a normal rub. You have to use it in small increments. If you "lightly" sprinkle some on it, it goes a long way. I throw some in my eggs in the morning and it …

I was told for baby backs to modify the 3-1-1 to 2-2-.45 I did this the other day and it worked out well. Think my fire was a little hot though. I would keep it at 250.

We are having an Egg-off at work. My coworker convinced me to but one. I did, now we are cooking and talking our way to heart attacks. But, the office wants the rewards without all the work. So we are each going to cook a butt and season it how we p…

A guy actually did the poke hole thing into his steaks at a cookoof. The judges were appaled and they all stated that if you cook it correctly, there is no need to tenderize the meat. Hey, to each his own. Not that he is wrong or right. It is a pers…

Congrats on the hand-me-down egg. I am not going to beat a dead horse, I mirror what everyone else said. Do not be afraid to experience with other foods as well. There is a learning curve. DOn't give up. Read as much as you can. My favorite it the b…

Just don't forget to burp. No matter how you do it. I have less arm hair for forgetting this step on my first cook. Wont's forget again :blush:
-
Interesting. I have a 5 gallon one. But I have and old bagless vacuum I don't use anymore. I guess the bags could catch fire at some point. I think I just found a use for the old dirt devil I ruined doing drywall. FYI bagless vac + :side: drywall d…

I had my first cook up to 600. I was cooking some T-bones that took about 30 sec. Did not get the chemical smell, but I threw some JD wood chips in there to smoke it. Smelled and tasted a lot like whiskey. Maybe that is the key for the first few. Sm…
