    Taking the Fun out of Smoking...

    Smoking in the rain tonight first pulled pork

    Good advice has been given here. I'll just add that a 20 mph wind is way more than I've ever smoked in. That's crazy. Yeah your best bet is the short term smoke followed by the actual cook in the oven. Let us know how it went!

    pan water or not?

    I have done brisket with and without water and I don't notice a difference in the bark. I ran my WSM without water for awhile and it went fine. However, I prefer water. It's just easier and it's also easier to clean out the water pan. All I do is hose it out. Not to mention you get easier to...

    Smoking Naked

    I'm also a big fan of the "naked smoking." Should we start a fan club? I've smoked some various meats and had people demand to know what my rub is. When I tell them it's just a little salt and pepper, they never believe me. You just can't beat the natural flavor of the wood smoke. Sometimes...

    Sugar maple wood?

    Thanks for the responses. I have plenty of it (as in an entire tree) that got basically eaten alive by aphids and is slowly dying. Guess I'll cut down a branch at a time as I need smoke wood!

    Sugar maple wood?

    Has anyone ever heard of or used sugar maple wood for smoke? I've been told it's a hard wood, but wasn't sure if it was any good for smoking.
