Smokers (Meat)


Recommended Posts

Got some Holy Cow on my beef spare ribs I just dropped on. Will smoke at 180 for 3 hours, then bring up the temp in a bit. will play that by ear when i check the temps. These three big ribs aren’t a uniform size, so I expect the smaller one to be a bit more done.

Last questions.  Smoke at 225? How long do they usually take?

My Traeger seems to take double the time at 225, which is maddening, but I hold firm to low and slow. 

Honestly, I used to do the same thing that you do. Now I cook at 200 for the first two hours (to get more smoke flavor) and then I crank my grill up to 300-350 to finish it off. I have not seen a discernible difference in flavor doing it this way vs low and slow the whole time.

Can't say I've ever heard of that.  Sounds wickedly good!

With great trepidation I post my chicken after @WrestlingRasta has posted his.

45 minute brine with Kosher salt and garlic flakes. Canola oil and pepper before going on the grill. Used a Meater+ (sticking out of large breast) to control temp and determine doneness. Basted with bbq sauce from a local restaurant during the last 20 minutes.

Not sure of the intrepidation. Those legs actually look better than that whole chicken.

Beef short ribs. They aren’t as dry than they look. This was the first cut. Taste was good but I would have preferred to get them on 8 hours, but can’t really justify doing the smoker that long for basically one plate of food.

Those look killer! I'm actually more of a fan of beef ribs, and they always look "dry,"  but never are.

That’s my five year olds favorite meal!

Was delicious. Did a brown sugar rub after sousing it for 36 hrs. 3 hrs on the Webber. The sous kind of makes it fool proof which is nice with brisket

I would love to make that.    I have two briskets leftover.   I'm getting hungry, except for the Fair food I ate yesterday.   But I'm getting there.  

Since this is a thread on smoking, and I don't know what sousing is, can you explain please?  That looks soooooo good!

In my opinion the biggest game changer for chicken (at least white meat) is to soak it in a brine or inject with a brine. I keep my brines simple and just boil water with salt, pepper and sugar. I let the brine cool and then typically inject the chicken before cooking it. Give it a shot and it will be the juiciest, most delicious chicken you have ever made.

I went a little past well done to keep the wife happy, but it was still real juicy because of the brine.

Also, the whole time it was indirect heat. Started with all burners on, then turned one off and put chicken skin side down there for 15 minutes. Flipped and opened occassionally to baste.
