It's been awhile since I was able to load the old girl up so I am looking forward to posting some BBQ p*rn next weekend, pork butts, brisket, sausage and ribs!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

dam Steve, killer rig.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

IMO... one of the sexiest pits made!!!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Looks like a Lang 84 w/ warmer, no?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

That would be the one. If I ever go back to a stick burner that is the pit I would own. I just don't know if I can go back to doing all nighters:confused:

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Man, that's the fun part! Sitting around the smoker with good friends, enjoying a few quality cigars, possibly a fine beverage (12 year old cuban rum for example), and feeding the beast a stick of her own every 45 minutes to an hour. Yes SIR!

I'll tell ya, we've definately solved more than a few of the worlds problems over the years, if only we could get the world to do it's part :D

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Keith and Wes, that stuff looks Frickin Killer.

Steve, thats an awesome rig!

Re: What's in your smoker?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

T.J. That looks absolutely incredible. The rub sounds on the hot side, which I like, but the better half abhors! Congrats! Steve

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Man that loooooks soooo good right now.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Now that there is some eats!!!!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

:dr....nuff said!....that mole bbq sauce sounds killer too....share or is it a secret?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

^^^^^ What he said!!:tu

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Thanks guys.

BigAsh & gator, PMs incoming.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Great job Adam. Looks killer!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I cold smoked some Tilamook Sharp Cheddar blocks the other night w/ Apple, Alder and Hickory. They have to sit Vacume-sealed for 2 weeks before sampling. Should be :dr

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Brent, do you think one could get away with cold smoking cheese and letting it rest for a few weeks without a vacuum food sealer? Say maybe wrapped in super-duper-heavy duty saran wrap or zip-loc bags?

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Thats exactly what I have heard. Wrapped as tight as you can get it, then ziplocked w/ all air out. Has to sit for a min of 2-3 weeks. :tu

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Cool. Thanks.

Menal note: buy $1.99 40W soldering iron next time I'm at Fry's.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I have been using this one for over 5 years now and it still works great, just like the day I bought it. I use it 4-5 times /week.

There is a newer version out now. I have not heard much about this one yet.

http://www.foodsaver.com/index.aspx?...FRk7gwodW0E-_Q

Neither one of these are too expensive, especially with the $$ I save on things not going bad, freezer burn and recpackaging bulk items.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

The countdown begins!

http://oldchurchbbq.com/sharedpictur...tdown%2001.jpg

Hmmm, I wonder what I could use these for???

http://oldchurchbbq.com/sharedpictur...tdown%2002.jpg

Frankensauce, yea that's the ticket!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I can only say one thing... ya need more ribs!!!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

yeah, I've telling myself forever that I really ought to get one someday, but just never seem to get around to buying one.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I love mine and really cant see how I lived w/out it. Well...yes I can, I used to throw away lots of stuff that went bad in baggies. :=:

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Those ribs are just for Friday night. I just got back from my dads picking up the brisket, sausages, and more ribs!

:dr:dr:dr:dr:dr

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Now you are talkin'!!!:tu

Best of luck on the cook brother!!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Sounds like a "snack" is gettin' smoked!....you gotta lot o' room in that lang brother!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I gotta BIG appetite :D !

I do love that thing though. Even with what I'm planning for right now (4 bone-in pork buts, a brisket flat, several slabs of ribs (6, 8, 10), a mess of sausage, and possibly a couple of yardbirds), there is still a LOT of room. I'll probably do up a mess of beans before all is said and done, and maybe some corn as well. This is going to be a fun cook and party to celebrate my wife's birthday and recovery from her surgery. Cooks like this sometimes take on a life of thier own. Before it's over, I'm sure the nieghbors will be bringing stuff over to put in as well.

If they're smart!! :tu

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Well spares go onsale at Jiggly Piggly this week, so I am going to get about 3 packs at lunch today.
After my recent tragedy, I am gunshy about it, though. Picked up 2 NICE big chuck roasts the other
day and came back from lunch and put them in the fridge. Before I left for home, I got them out
and threw em in the driver's side cubby. Get home and just go upstairs like nothing is different.
Got up the next day and got in my truck for work and smelled a sickly sweet aroma in the cab.
Then later that day at lunch, the armoma was stronger. Then in a face-flushing rush it hits me.
THAT'S what that dang smell was. NOT nice.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Sorry to hear that about the chuckies... I had that happen once when I left a bunch of meat in my wife's trunk. I don't know who was more ticked...

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Back in High School, I worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken. One night we ran short on birds, so I ran to another store and picked up a couple of cases. I was careful about lining the trunk of dad's car with garbage bags, but apparently some of the blood made it past the plastic and got into the trunk carpeting...

Anyway, the next afternoon, after sitting in the Florida summer sun all day, dad comes out from work all tired and opens the door to a great green cloud.

Not my finest moment!

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

I am trying to go 2 for 2. I have four racks of ribs and 3 lbs of hamburger meat out in the bed of my truck.
Every hour or so I am running a bag of ice from the ice machine in the kitchen out to the truck and
pouring it into a large white bag that the meat is in. Who knows if I will remember either to renew
the ice or bring in the meat this afternoon.

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Bet I know....:r

Re: What's in your smoker?
 

Sweet. Not this weekend for me. I am going store bag Hickory chunks. Actually, I should swing
by the pecan orchard and see what the straight line winds done wrought.:)
2 racks of SLC spare ribs, some burgers and doggies.
