The next time you smoke, for the last 10-15 minutes, put hard boiled eggs (shelled) on foil in the smoker. Totally amazing.
Precooked eggs? I am going to make breakfast on the smoker some weekend. Anyone done that?

You have a smoker?? When did you get that? I'm gonna build this guy soon https://www.bigpoppasmokers.com/store/bbq-accessories/big-poppa-s-engineered-drum-smoker-kitI made beef jerky in the smoker today and I've almost ate it all already. Took some thin cut sirloin, marinaded over night and smoked it for about 3 hours with some apple wood-- amazing.
Replace oven with smoker. Use Applewood and the second picture is how they turned out.

I've got an apple tree and a couple pear trees that I trimmed up a couple months ago. Looking forward to those Trimmings drying so I can try the pear.I also put in the ground mustard. I also experimented a little yesterday and put about a half a teaspoon of ground coffee in the rub. I will also use chili powder or sprinkle some cayenne pepper. I love smoked paprika and prefer it over regular. I did a whole chicken on my brinkmann "smoke and grill", 5 hours later it was juicy, flavorful and tasted awesome. We had cut down an apple tree a few years back and saved all big pieces and I will split it into smaller chucks. I have enough to last a few more years. The smoker has the water pan and I use the water that I soaked the apple wood in, along with apple juice, orange juice etc. Just experiment!
Had my twelve year old do a taste test on a beer but chicken that he wanted me to do on the grill. Besides the obvious smoky smell, he liked the flavor of the smoked chicken in the blind taste test he wanted to do.
The best advice I can give to anyone is to use a temperature probe, and judge the doneness of the meat based on temperature.
I'm a fan of bbqbrethren and amazingribs.com.
One of my favorite things to do is put a mix of half apple cider vinegar, half spiced apple cider in a spray bottle and spritz the hell out of them every half hour/hour. Helps keep the outside layer from drying out, absorbs some of the smoke, and gives a nice hint of sweetness to my ribs. I do this on top of marinating them overnight in straight apple-cider vinegar and my dry rub.
Here's a good book...
Smoke & Spice by Jamison and Jaminson.
You can thank me with a bit of BBQ. Good luck.
I did a brisket last week, The best way I can describe it is that I thought it ended up kind of soggy. I have a gas smoker and had a guy tell me this might be the reason why. Anyone have this before and how did you combat it?
