Jim, I did pour some beer in the water bowl, I just hate to pour too much in there ! ;) You get the idea ! :)

A couple of pics on startup and then after 3 hours, lookin good so far ! :)

I never use more than I have to to get the right level in my water pan. Then, I have to take a few sips to make sure the cheap beer I use hasn't gone bad.:D

Nice lookin' meat, Scotty. I hope you and Kathleen have a great time in Saint Martin.

Jimmy, I think that's the most popular style around, if you want to do your smoking with wood instead of gas or electric. Before we moved back to town, a neighbor had two big ones of that style and I helped a bit with his annual Fourth of July picnic. We always had lots of briskets, chicken, and sausage, but in addition to that we did a whole goat and 8 of my rabbits one year. One of my brothers has one and he and his wife used it to feed about 30 volunteers who were working on their church last year.

Good Evening Scott,

So your back to smokin again.:cool:......That is some nice looking ribs:D


Hope you enjoy your trip!.....Where is St. Martin???.....:eek:

Enjoy your ribs:p

Good Afternoon Bill,
Thanks we leave tommorrow afternoon ! :)

St Martin location...Saint Martin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

BTW the ribs were excellent, even though they should have been taken out of the smoker at 5pm when exactly at that moment, our VFD sounded a tone for a structure fire ! :eek: I ended up driving our 3000 gal tanker, we partially saved the home, but the ribs didnt come off until 7:30, I was worried that they would be dried out but thankfully the charcoal had died out ! :)

I never use more than I have to to get the right level in my water pan. Then, I have to take a few sips to make sure the cheap beer I use hasn't gone bad.:D

Nice lookin' meat, Scotty. I hope you and Kathleen have a great time in Saint Martin.

Good Afternoon Jim,

Good Afternoon Guys,
A few weeks back Uncle Dave went salmon fishing with a friend of his and brought back a boat load of salmon ! :)

He knows I love runnin my smoker, and we both know that we really like smoked salmon, so he asked me if I would give it a try. I was a bit apprehensive about doing fish but I gave it a try about three weeks ago. The salmon came out fantastic !

So of course he has a freezer load of salmon and he was so happy the way the last salmon came out that he wanted me to do it again..... :rolleyes:

So I just thought I would share with you guys what worked for me and pass it along ! I think I really came onto something really good with the Mr Yoshida's marinate, the original formula. I marinate the filets overnite in this marinate and throw in a few cloves of garlic.

For the smoker I tried using wine barrel wood chips for my smoke, it seems to be a great combination...

I will post some finished pics when donre, it only takes about 1 hr 45 mins for the whole deal. You dont want to dry the fish out too much.

Heres some action shots... ;)

BTW the weather here in new england is fantastic today just right for smokin and a few beers..... :D
