Like $130 bucks and does the trick.
Only when covered to tenderize, I like to use a can of beer in the pan, or all but a couple of swallows :darkbeer:In Texas, where smoking meat is a time honored tradition, we prefer to use indirect heat with a fire box on the side. Those of us that have welders usually make our own.
As far as tips for smoking, if you ask 100 people you'll get 200 opinions.
Now here's mine. I get a lot of compliments on my BBQ so it must work.
Marinade meat overnight, if possible. Use beer, worchestire, minced garlic and some of the rub for the marinade.
Put rub on and smoke for two hours at approximately 180-200 degrees. (While the meat is smoking I like to slice an onion in half and put it on the fire.)
Remove from heat and place in throw away metal roasting pan with about a cup of the marinade. Cover with heavy duty foil and put back on the smoker.
Smoke for as long as it takes to cook the meat and tenderise it.
Any meat the size of a beef brisket 8 hrs. total time.
Ribs about 4 hrs.
Adjust the cooking time according to the size of the meat.
For any game meat you must put plenty of fat on it to keep it from drying out. I like bacon.
