uhm guys, it's been like 2 months since we've smoked or grilled anything according to the gE mancooking diary

we are better than this

I smoked an eye of round roast last weekend and made sandwiches.   Was fairly tasty for cheap meat, but no prime rib of course.

please tell you made some french dips or cheesesteaks

french dips with provolone...

they were tasty, we used those Bolillo rolls that Dillons sells like 8/$1.    Some au jus and horseradish.   Mmmm.

was in a customer's yard and saw this beauty.  asked her about it and she said for the past 2 years it hasn't been used although her son keeps on saying that he is going to come and get it.

i told her that it hurt my heart to see it rusting away like that and she told me that if it was still sitting there in a week due to her son's indifference that it would be mine.  FOR FREE!!!

I forgot to post this. Fried my first turkey in December. It turned out fantastic. I injected it the night before with just about everything in the spice cabinet, plus beer and rum. It turned out fantastic. The meat is so moist.

it was pretty cold that day. the oil was at around 300 degrees, and four hours after i killed the heat and let the fryer sit outside, the oil was still over 100 degrees  :sdeek:

What's the upright part good for?  Cold smoking?  :dunno:

BTW last week I did 80lbs of pork butt for a bachelor party.  Lol they only ate about 40lbs. 



I used this sucker again.  I really like it because of the upright design, the smoke and heat really flow through evenly which makes my job that much easier.

it's not quite cool enough in there for true cold smoking but it is kind of similar to that.  got a brisket or pork butt going in the horizontal chamber, throw some sausage or chicken in the vertical one.  it is basically not as hot so you can even out cook times a little more

Ha, it's a beast for sure.  The tank is 3/16" thick so it does take awhile to get it up to temp.

does it not have an air damper on the smoke box or is it just weirdly located, or is it just my eyes

Long story short I wedge a 1/2 inch bolt under the firebox door to let in enough air.  I think most home made smokers have little secrets/oddities like that.
