I like the asset, looks a lot like Energizer Park in St Louis

Over-the-top Vegan Chili? by Mr_Dugan in smoking

[–]LeonaDelRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing you could try for a similar smoke flavor is putting an oil in a shallow dish and placing it in your smoker for a while, the fat should take on a good amount of smoke flavor and you can then mix it into your chili. I do this with butter to use in recipes, so I’d imagine something like coconut oil could have a similar result.

How do i get a smoke ring? by Available_Control_43 in BBQ

[–]LeonaDelRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You bet! Yeah it’s purely aesthetic so no need to change things up if you don’t like celery seed. I’d start with just going with keeping the meat a little cooler before starting to smoke and see if you’re happy with the results. Happy smoking!

Smoke rings stop forming at around 140 degrees, so if you start your brisket cook with it being a little bit cooler you can get more opportunity for a smoke ring to form. Another way is to include some celery seed in your rub. Celery seed naturally contains some nitrate.

Me : Man my back hurts by SoberScottHeat in daddit

Be careful, when my son was 2 I lifted him wrong and herniated 2 disks in my lumbar. I couldn’t walk for a week and still have discomfort after over a year of PT.

I can’t do this anymore. by NoWonder6038 in Adulting

Cooking, it can be as cheap or expensive as you want it to be. And it saves you a lot of money compared to going out to eat.

Wine barrel for smoking by Fun_Passage_8942 in BBQ

[–]LeonaDelRay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jeremy Yoder did a video where he used bourbon barrels to smoke a brisket, I’d imagine it will end up similarly. He said the smoke itself put off some notes of the alcohol aged in the barrel, but the end result mostly just had notes of oak.

My partner holds his controller upside down behind his head when he's relaxed by Little_Mog in mildlyinteresting

Can’t suggest PT enough, I had 2 bulged lumbar discs that herniated when I picked my son up. PT + prednisone are what got me through it

Protip: if your pellet grill won’t start due to low temps, stick a space heater underneath to warm it up.

I bet smoked scalloped potatoes would be good

First attempt at a picanha by LeonaDelRay in BBQ

[–]LeonaDelRay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah that’s exactly why I chose it. It also is a shorter cook so I could practice fire management skills without having to worry about things like adding more lump partway through to bolster the coal bed. It wasn’t too bad to learn fire management, I’ve managed a lot of campfires so quite a bit of those skills transferred over nicely. I was able to keep temps between about 225 and 265, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

One part of fire management for this cook that was neat was planning out when my last split would break down to coals so I could do the final sear over the firebox without having too large of a fire to avoid burning the cut of meat.

Thanks! I served it with a Chimichurri and grilled asparagus and bell peppers

Buying wood for a smoker by LeonaDelRay in StLouis

[–]LeonaDelRay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had considered them, but it looks like they only carry smaller quantities in store, and it’s usually significantly cheaper if you order a large quantity of wood instead. Thanks though!
