Just got a smoker
« on: April 30, 2004, 12:18:27 AM »
Wanted any advice/recipes for smokin food.  Just got a brinkman smoker (27.99).  Its an upright kind were the charcoal/wood chips are at the bottom w/ a water pan above it w/ 2 wire racks for the food above them.

I plan on smoking some whole chickens this weekend.  IF anyone has any good recipies/advice for rubs.....what kind of wood chips to use.....how long you cook for....and best of all RIBs.  I'd appreciate it.

Congradulations on your EZBake oven. This is a smoker.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Mora...he needed a smoker...not a "'still".  ;)

Gunslngr...I have made mouth watering ribs on my Coleman gas BBQ modified into a smoker....so these guys are just being ornary.  :D

I can't help with the operation of a smoker....but temperature should never be higher than 225 degrees.

I'll post a few rub receipes in a while.
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain
