Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

Took the rib eye roasts I got at Aldi’s and took the ribs sections off of each and will smoke these short ribs at a later date. Cut the rest into at least 1 1/2” thick ribeyes. Ended up with like 18 steaks. Not bad for $7.99 lb.

This is the way. I had a foreign friend ask one time why we only have turkey once per year at Thanksgiving. I said it’s a lot of work and even if done perfectly it’s still not that yummy so we only do it once per year for tradition. That’s my take anyway.
I don't do whole turkey much, even for Thanksgiving. I opt for breast meat instead. Makes it easier to get meat that cooks at an even rate, and it's still a big cut of meat, so it's not hard to feed a crowd with a couple breasts. I'll smoke them for Thanksgiving, obviously, but I also smoke them occasionally throughout the year for lunch meat.
 
What do you like to use this on? My wife makes fun of me for my incredible catalog of different seasonings. I have to use restraint whenever I walk down that aisle. She banished all my stuff out of the spot for regular kitchen spices. :cool:
Initially I used it on chicken. But since I've used it on steaks, pork, in mashed potatoes, fried potatoes, brussels, etc etc. Pretty much everything.
