I over slept. Started 3 hours later than planned so instead of eating at 6:30 it turned out to be 9:30 pm before the meat was ready.

We chowed on it this morning. Smoked Brisket Hash.
I also made 6 lbs of burnt ends. that stuff is like candy

My Wife and daughter thank you, as do I. We did red white and blue potato salad today. I did the potatoes just as you said and threw them into the mix with some blue cheese, bacon and all the other fixins for the Potato Salad.

You mentioned you like it better the next day, I prefer most of my smoke dishes better the next day, so I am really looking forward to lunch tomorrow!

Rep to you!

Heck yeah, glad to hear it was a success. I'm a bit ashamed I haven't been doing it this way all along.

Man, I wish my wife liked blue cheese. It sounds amazing in a potato salad.

Not a fan of pellet cooked meat over being cooked over real wood. Some pellet smokers are taking all the love out of smoked meats and letting simi trained circus animals to put out decent butt roasts and briskets.

On a pellet unit you burn pellets for heat so you are putting smoke to the food 100% of the unless you wrap it. (steam it) and I don't do that. With a stick burner, you can add, pull, or reduce the wood to get the smoke, the sweetness or bitterness. you prefer and let the charcoal or gas provide clean heat.

Pellet smokers have a place but I'm old school when it comes to putting out some great BBQ, pellet smokers IMHO take the love of mopping and maintaining a fire with the best mix of heat and flavor that's real BBQ. Pellet smokers are technologies way of saying "**** you"to the pitmasters of hundreds of years of BBQ history.

I own a tailgate smoker unit that runs on wifi controls and yes it's a pellet burner. It is like the only option for an RV as I fire it off as a main method of cooking as rv overs suck ass. It is used as an oven as much or more than a smoker.

It is lightweight, has a small footprint (stores under the bus) and can be set on a tailgate, table, or can use its handles as legs and be set up anywhere. My granddaughter (11) can move it and set it up herself, and the power usage is very little which is very important to RV'ers. I don't have to deal with what to do with hot coals and ashes as there are almost none from the Davy Crocket. I don't have to empty it to store it I can pull the food, fold up the grill and store it immediately after cooking.

Pros burn logs fired off with propane for heat, after the logs burn out the food cooks using just the gas for heat. This allows them to get great smoke flavor, of their liking, followed by consistent heat and being able to sleep through the night.

https://www.bigpoppasmokers.com/medi...cto_0067_1.png

My friends and family have been BTT (blind taste tested) and they choose real wood followed by charcoal over pellet smoked every time. Sometimes my local craft BBQ/ smoked meat emporium cooks on one of their pellet pits and not only I buy many other catch it right away.

I am not a pussy, I learned how to control fire, smoke, and heat, and consider it a call of duty to get up twice during the night to check on my smoker. If I had a bad ass 1/4 plate smoker, I could make it overnight or a one tripper but my $1300 stick burner and I have a unique relationship where I get a nice Bourbon for checking on the fire at 3 am and my SO rewards me for coming back to bed. If I used a pellet smoker overnight I'd check on it just for the benefits:):):)

That tell you where I stand?

Pros do that with gas fired logs then just run gas huh? Yeah, NO! See, by pros you mean guys that make money doing it generally. Competition guys will be disqualified if you use gas for anything other than starting your fire. If you let the logs burn and keep propane on, you are disqualified. Also, people don't wrap to stop getting smoke generally. They wrap to speed up the cook time. Yes, it is because of steaming, and for that reason I never wrap anything. I've been a competition bbq guy for over 20 years. Charcoal is what most of the guys end up cooking the comp meat with, and now pellets have been on the scene for about 10 years in comps and they do VERY well, even with old school guys. The big rigs with logs on them during the cook are all for show and generally for feeding the party that shows up. The real pit pros cook the logs off on another unit or barrel then transfer the hot coals to the smoker. Otherwise you will get too much smoke and not the right kind. Or, they use natural charcoal, which is made of wood and gives the same effect and then they just add a couple of small blocks of wood for flavor.
I've got a Weber Smokey Mountain, which is what most of the comp guys cook their turn in food on unless they are using a pellet grill. I've also used a side by side (horizontal) stick burner, and now I have a Grilla OG pellet grill. I did a large cook last weekend, and the wings were the best I've ever made, and my wife and several others said the same about the ribs, and I did them all on the pellet grill with Hickory pellets.
Also, yes, the pellet grill heats pellets (compressed wood if you use the right kind) for heat and smoke. I have news for you, that's the same way a stick burner works. It burns wood for heat and smoke.
So, to sum up, get off the high horse. Some of us "pitmaster" are using pellets and getting great results. I was a purist for years until I tried a pellet grill and realized that I can come home from work and use it just like a charcoal grill with the same taste but the ease of gas.

I've recently moved and have not moved my stick burner yet. I miss it greatly but hopefully this week I'll get it moved to the new pad. As far as the bolded part of the quoted post if you preheat your sticks you can avoid getting smoggy or dirty smoke every time you add a log to the fire. It's a must to control your smoke.

I did it because it’s just so easy. The instant pot makes all meat pretty tender. Just sauced and broiled at end to add some texture to outside.

Something like this for the Instant Pot part?

cooper barrett 09-20-2020 09:36 AM

Yes I agree, raw firewood will belch out nasty white smoke as it starts to burn. I have a Weber Kettle for pre-burning sticks before moving them to the firebox. I use a Weber chimney for charcoal for heat.

The smoker I showed can be used in a competition situation as you can start logs and charcoal and turn off the gas then add to the firebox with raw or prefired charcoal or sticks as needed.
In a Professional Restaurant situation you can fire it up, get the fire going and after 4-6 hours of cooking with smoke and heat from the wood and charcoal the gas will come back on and keep the temp at desired setting, letting the pitmaster sleep through the night, as the meat continues to cook.

Basically that with finishing under the broiler for a few minutes to crisp outside. It's VERY easy.

And I flip them under the broiler. I start meaty side down, get a char started, then flip them and crust the sauce.

Damn those look tasty. I'm a sucker for marmalade so I'm sure I would have loved those. I had to talk myself out of buying a pack of pork bellies at Costco yesterday because I've got like 30 pounds of meat in the freezer I need to do something with first.

Tomorrow I'm smoking a chicken and some deviled eggs in homage of KCU. Gonna get them chickens from birth to death!!

Next time you do it, add a little marmalade, the flavor profile changed exponentially, and if you like orange, you'll love this...

Just got a pellet smoker a few weeks ago and still figuring things out. Been hit and miss so far. Planning to try my first brisket tonight/tomorrow and serve before the game. Been googling and YouTubeing but ask that everyone in this thread please be on standby in case of emergency.

Hy Vee had Hormel pork tenderloins for $3 each. They're usually $10 or $11 ea. I bought six of them and put them in my freezer. I like to put these on a Weber GSM. They slow smoke great, and the meat is tender, just like what you'd find on a rack of baby back ribs. Easy to cook, tastes great. I'm going to do one of these if it doesn't rain.

I buy up Pork Tenderloins (not Loins) in 2 packs whenever they go on sale but they are like $2.50 to $3lb on sale with $5-$6lb regular price.

I think the Hormel products here are always flavored (Deal breaker) and weigh in at just over a pound each. The Hormel (or Smithfeild) they sell here are 1.2 to 1.3lbs which is $9 or more a pound. Kroger Price is $5lb up to $8 fully trimmed of silverskin, packaged in cryovac. Hormel at $3 is quite the deal

I stuff the large loins with brats or sausage that is pre-cooked and refrigerated sometimes with hard cheese and then smoke em.

Hell of a buy had to be a pricing error.

Its been years ago but at Sams Club, I ran across cryovac slabs of baby backs priced at $1.99. I looked and seen net weight 1lb obvious wrong as each cryovac contained 3 slabs. Well, I didn't expect to get out the door with this. The meat department guy came by setting out some meat and I asked him. He told me they were aware and the next batch out would be priced correct. His advice to me was to buy what was left as I would never get a better deal. I went through the checkout with 7 pack last in the bin no questions asked.

I've snagged a decent T-Bone on something like that, but never your kinda score.

My Hyvee had the Hormel tenderloins at $3/lb. But they had the marinated Smithfield ones as BOGO for $10. Snagged a couple of those bad boys, one was 1.4 and the other was 1.7lbs.

I bought a 36” Blackstone griddle today. Very excited to cook some foods on it tomorrow. I got finished putting it together around noon and then it’s been cloudy and off and on showers since, otherwise I would have done some ribeyes and veggies on it.

cooper barrett 10-11-2020 02:30 AM

Lots of protein on the smoker today


Late night roll ups with friends around the fire pit.

Smoked a Tri-tip after a 3 day marinade and my rub an hour before smoking. Smoked in Bayou Classic using white oak for about 5 hours just under 200 degrees with an hour at 250 at the end. (nobody wanted rare but me.)

Sliced 1/8" thin and served with various condiments. I had 1 of shortly mine bare and one with a Cabernet/ garlic steak sauce and lettuce. Hot pickles (Dave's Devils) on the side.

I cut off a couple more slices for someone that commented on the smoke ring. As an afterthought, I too a pic. Yes that's a slab in the background that I took off shortly after eating.

https://i.postimg.cc/8CSyJ1mG/IMG-0185-1.jpg

My SO and I had this for an early dinner meal. Potato salad, ghost pepper salsa infused cottage cheese.

I flip the filet on top of the strip to keep it rare.

I've got ribs wrapped in foil, the in towels, waiting for the son and wife to get home. Pics later (if I don't forget)...

Burning some PTO days so I had one of these days, but at least I got ribs going:

Burning Flex day myself 10 more days by EOY.

Tomorrow, deep fried tortilla stuffed with some of the leftover tri-tip, pork butt and maybe rib meat. I think, I am going to make rib meat mac and cheese, twice baked mac and cheese and pickled red onions for tomorrows game. Need to get stocked up on bacon. It goes in everything.

Should I Photoshop monkey faces on my sig. pic.?

I’m doing some kielbasa this week.

srvy 10-12-2020 07:40 PM

Dang I missed the notification of rib week:(. Good looking racks and pork butt.

This thread is moving.

Nice work.

GloryDayz 10-12-2020 08:03 PM

They were simply awesome. Not sure how I nailed on lazy day, but I did. They were friggin wonderful.

Letting them rest for 90 minutes wrapped in foil and in a towel might be some sort of trick.

Yes, yes it is. Welcome to the world of having teenagers who decided not to wait because he was hungry! LMAO

He thought it was funny, and I've got to admit, I laughed too.

The best news is that you can see how cleanly the bones pulled out, but the meat remained just firm enough..

Again, when I'm not really trying I mail it...

Uncovered on the smoker for 3 hours, 1.5 hours covered (and didn't add anything inside the foil), ~4 minutes under the broiler, then 1.5 hours resting in foil that were wrapped in towels...

https://i.postimg.cc/jdkQhTVp/IMG-0186-1.jpgWhere I came from being able to pull bones is overcooked. There should be some gnawing to be done.

That said, some people think they are under cooked if they don't pull completely from the bone leaving no trace of protein on the bone whatsoever.

I find, I like to have to bite into my ribs and prefer not to use my arms to separate the meat from the bone.

Cooked ribs last night with the Tri-tip but the smoke ring is missing on the ribs...

Homebrewing a KCoconut porter beer tomorrow.

Seems most toast the coconut in the oven, but since I'm from KC it was obvious I should smoke it. We'll see in a few weeks how it turns out.

Smoked coconut chips. 1lb

Can anyone give me a recommendation for some good analog smoker temp gauges? I want to install two closer to the cooking level on an OK offset smoker.

I bought a couple of River Country 3" thermometers. They work for me. They have a long stem and once or twice I've had to adjust things so they didn't touch the food.

srvy 10-28-2020 08:40 PM

I know a welder who builds smokers on the side he recommended Taylor to me. I have been happy so far.

Read up.

No mechanical temp gauge is worth it's salt.

Taylor and Tel-tru are both good, yet mechanical, units but you have to calibrate them.

srvy 10-29-2020 11:36 AM

Tel-Tru and Midwest Hearth are probably some of the best but they will cost you 4 times as much. They still have to be calibrated routinely and they all get spiderwebbing inside that ruins them. I would rather use digital all day but he wants analog.

ChiefGator 10-29-2020 01:38 PM

I think I will put a couple analog, but I did start looking at digital ones... the option to have low and high temp alarms sounds good.. especially when I wake up at 2am to start a smoke and lay back down to rest sometimes....
