1st Smoke - Oh Yeah!

adlkrodgersMember

Well, seasoned my SM 045, then waited one day for SEC football, then loaded my new toy up with wings, 1/4 chicken (dark), and some pork chops. Not long after kick-off I "let the smokin begin"! Yummy results - very moist. I probably could have pulled the meat sooner, so next time I will. Then I'll try finishin the skin off in our broiler or on my grill. The taste was better than the look, and the look was pretty good out of the smoker. Not bad for my 1st product!

For my wings I did @225 for almost 2 hrs from a cold start since I had the box completely full of meat. When I do with just wings next time I'll do for 1 1/2 hrs. Also, next time I'll follow some good hints from this forum about how to crisp the skin after you finish smoking, typically you must get them on a grill or in your oven @ a temp of 350 or so for a few minutes.

Good luck! I'm sure you'll have some yummy wings!

If those are out of the smoker they look good without throwing them on a grill.

Yep, that's what they look like right off the smoker. Good & tasty meat, though the skin out of the smoker is cooked but rubbery. Only finish at a higher temp on the grill or in the oven will make it crisp.
