    Montreal Smoked Meat (Flavor Brine Cure Pumped)

    ya, I think it's a little faster like if I had this might have been done in as little as 3 days, and I think it's pretty much required for over 2" thick

    Montreal Smoked Meat (Flavor Brine Cure Pumped)

    Greetings All, I obtained a nice 5lb trimmed flat and made some MSM last month, using my old recipe. Equilibrium flavor brine cure 9 days (no pump this time as the flat was 2" at most), made a saltless rub for it then rubbed and smoked under 200ºF for about 9 hours to 145ºF internal. Turned...

    Shawn W got me thinking

    Just to qualify my comments, not right or wrong, I sort of consider HH to be north of 325ºF myself. Another reason I still believe what Doug D taught me here that time is a factor in tenderizing is the example of grilling a pork shoulder butt or a beef blade steak. If you direct grill those...

    Brisket methods and tips?

    I probably should have mentioned for those who don't know me I rarely use my WSM any more but mainly my Keg kamado with dry pan. It's been years since I did WSM brisket. I've done in the tens of briskets, not hundreds and I've only tried high heat a few times like for brisket, pulled pork and...

    Brisket methods and tips?

    I prefer really low ... like 200ºF - 225ºF for great big fatty briskets (or beef shoulder clod for pulled beef) with the Texas crutch at 160ºF and some added liquid. Can't be beat IMO. Small lean briskets/pieces or smaller more lean cuts for pulled beef come out OK with high heat cooks, but it's...

    Russian Dressing & Dip

    I don't much care for Kraft Russian dressing but this sounds great! I'll be doing this soon using the chili sauce and for my liking extra hot horseradish thanks for the post

    Making Reuben sandwich

    not sure if you want any more help on this ... but here are some basic instructions for a 'standard' Reuben sandwich to give you a starting point: rye bread thin sliced (but not shaved) pastrami or corned beef, enough for at least 1/2" (or as much as you would like) on the sandwich sauerkraut...

    Making Reuben sandwich

    What Lew said. Russian dressing is actually the 'authentic original' dressing, but most seem to use 1000 island these days.

    photobucket gone nuts ?

    Man. I have ten years of BBQ pics on Photobucket sorted in folders. From Free to $40/month .... My image links in perhaps 8,000 forum posts around the web were all broken in one fell swoop. I can't say what I think and keep it 'G' rated *>:( Here are a couple of options in addition to IMGUR...

    photobucket gone nuts ?

    Forums as far as I know only support HTTP(S) for image linking. As long as your NAS offers this yes. There are a few other points to consider whether HTTP(S) or FTP though. The NAS needs to be accessible to the outside world, so get your own domain name or use DDNS. Firewall/port forwarding...

    Posted here because it's not a weber- scores a free lynx professional series 36"

    Cured Smoked Pork Tenderloins

    Thanks all! I used 3% salt, 1% sugar, nitrites at 200ppm and just enough liquid to cover. They sat in the brine for 8 days. I put granulated garlic, dried rosemary and thyme leaves into 1/3 of the liquid and simmered a couple minutes to extract flavor, then cooled down in chilled water to...

    Cured Smoked Pork Tenderloins

    I flavor brine cured pork tenderloins with rosemary, thyme and garlic. Here they are after a rinse and 3 hours of fridge drying time with some white pepper sprinkled on: After about 16 hours of 150ºF the tenderloins looked, felt and smelled done. The only issue was that at that low of a temp...

    Butt 'n Bird (and a photo critique request)

    Bob, first, great looking grub! Second, as for over-saturation I do think the pulled pork and sauce in the wrap pic appear over-saturated to me. I'm not a photography wiz but there is a difference between direct and indirect light and pics with white and dark elements can be pretty challenging...

    An honor, an insult, or just a wicked sense of humor?

    I vote none of the above. Just not my style.

    Cured Smoked Beef Tenderloin

    A curious thing happened to this product I didn't expect. After vac packing the slices were rather stuck together and took some effort to separate with a thing pairing knife. To do it again I would vac pack chunks, then slice after opening. I took some to a Christmas party for 20 people and it...
