Thought I would start a thread to see if anyone is interested or if there are any pit masters out there...??
I'm getting into smoking meat and thought I would share my journey and hopefully find some masters out there to learn and get tips from.
I have 3 bbqs now starting with a std gas burner bbq with a hood. Which is good for quick cooking anything from large cuts right down to sausages and anything else that might need to be cooked
Then I have a Weber kettle bbq. A great little kettle that is charcoal or briquette fired and has worked very well for me for about 10 years. Perfect for cooking med sized cuts of meat like rib eyes and whole fillets.
Last Xmas I brought myself a pit smoker bbq which I got all excited about and am now getting better at learning how to use. This beast is very different to the other bbqs and requires a lot of fire management (which the other bbqs dont) but the results are amazing! Cooking anything from brisket and ribs to smoking salmon and even cheese. I love this type of cooking and the experience of spending all day tending a fire and getting amazing tasting meat at the end of it. I'm in the process of doing a few internal mods to it to get some better heat control etc but so so much fun and amazing tasting meat.
