Liquid Smoke

I use liquid smoke when I make my beans with a bone from the Holiday ham. Seems to work great, in fact I have a ham bone in the freezer now with pleanty of meat left on it I'm gonna use. !!!

Hmmm!

Man do i feel bad for the 2 of you when Smokin finds this post.

I was under the impression that if you use the stuff, you aren't to admit it here on the forum.

That is why I have never mentioned it.

Ah dam, now I guess I'm in for it also.

I watched Alton Brown make liquid smoke on the food channel. He burned wood, ran the smoke through a heating duct chimney up into the center of a bundt cake pan covered with a lid smaller than the diameter of the bundt, put a baggie full of ice on top of the lid and condensed the liquid smoke into the pan. I thought that stuff was just chemicals! Pretty entertaining, but I can't imagine anyone producing homemade liquid smoke. Of course, if there is a penalty, providing a recipe for liquid smoke is no admission of use.

Okay, so first we talk about liquid smoke, then Alton Brown as a source for BBQ knowledge we give a recipe for it.

You guys are KILLING me...stop the insanity.

WHY use the stuff? It has a nasty after taste and you are just killing your taste buds.

If you have a smoke, why make liquid version of it? Make the canadian bacon without it and cold smoke it so you get REAL smoke flavor, not the manufactured variety. And funny, but LS is all natural

Yes, I ought to ban you for using such language on this forum, but ONLY because it's the holiday season will I let you off with a warning.

Now, if you'd mention LS, the F word and Smoke Rings in the same sentence, it's called the death penalty and it isn't pretty.

Oh, did I mention that it's just my opinion

Perhaps SmokinOkie is right. What I ment to say is, yes I used L.S. but that was before I bought my smoker. SO NOW, when I make my beans-n-ham, I'll smoke my ham bone and what ever meat is left on it. It should turn out better anyway!! Maybe this weekend, looks like the weather is going to get colder, so a good pot of smoked beans would hit the spot perfect!!!! Might as well throw in a big onion and smoke that too!!

Inquiring minds want to know whether the shiney side of the foil goes in or out when you use liquid smoke and if it affects the SR.

Yes the foil side does affect the SR.

The only way to avoid this with ribs is to boil them first in lots of liquid smoke before using the foil

Would you then slather the ribs in Kraft barbecue sauce?

Tom, I have found that if you double wrap with foil using the first wrap with shinny side in and the second with dull side out (of course adding LS prior to wrapping) the SR goes clean through the center of the meat! .

And, I guess that comment makes me "Dead Meat?"

Sounds just like the rib burns that travel the country selling to the public,calling themselves competitions.

Okay, you're all banned

I love being easy to figure out.

Of course the ribs I boiled last night, in water I added liquid smoke to and the a teaspoon of TQ to add a smoke ring came out great.

I cover them in sauce, wrapped them in foil and put them in the dishwasher to finish

Great idea Smokin!

Now, did you use rib hooks and hang em from the top rack or just stand em on end on the lower unit? The lower unit is closer to the soap dispenser thus more lemon flavoring from the scented "Cascade!"

Oh thanks Wheelz, I forgot to mention the rib hooks (I hung them long way, one hook at each end) and the Lemon Flavored cascade is the ONLY way to go.

LS - Alton Brown - Kraft barbecue sauce - boiled ribs - Cascade !!!! WHAT is going on here ????? Hmmm.... Ribs in the dish washer..... Now theres an idea. LOL

Guess this should be moved to April 1st...

Oh, we should add Miracle whip to the list

I just pulled my first rack from the dishwasher: I produced a beautiful cascading boil ring (my first)!

ROTFL You guys are too much! I will have to catch up - the only SR I have produced was when the liquid smoke ate through the bottle and made a "smoke ring" on the shelf of my kitchen cabinet. This was years ago and the reason I never bought it again. Now here you go giving me inspiration to try it again.... Maybe Miracle Whip to hold the LS on the ribs while in the dishwasher???

"WHAT HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN SMOKING"? SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING FROM CHEECH & CHONG!!

RT

Now you guys got me ROTFLOL!!! You're missing one important element when doing the ribs in the dishwasher.....you need to make sure to fill up your Jet Dry reservoir so you don't don't get those nasty spots on the ribs

Yeah! I knew something was missiing! The jet Dry will help put a little bark on those ribs.

What do you guys think would work best; the Air Dry cycle or Sanitize?

Okay, since we're telling secrets. You are correct there is JD in the washer, but JD stands for Jack Daniels. My secret ingredient.

Now you know why I always like the plate clean.

When i do my boiled ribs in the dishwasher, i like to fasten them to the part that spins, that way they get an even coat of LS JD and cascade. If i take them out and they are to wet for my liking, I run them through a partial spin cycle in the dryer, this way they stay warm. I usaully line the drier with F that way it catches the K sauce.

As for the other JD I usually enjoy a cup or so as I watch the ribs spin in the drier. Although it is usually Maker's Mark not JD.

Hey, that dishwashing this is just a timesaver.... LOL! And mighty darn tasty, I might add!

Ya know, as much as I live BBQ, there ARE other ways to cook stuff! Bunch of wiesenheimers.

Hey everyone who mentioned SR, LS and F*(& is banned, banned for at least the next 3 minutes.

I have six racks of ribs I am going to load up in the bottom rack of the dishwasher, it is better than a weber rib rack since it holds more.You can load chickens that way too.They will stay upright just like using a beer can. Run through a short cycle with water only to boil,then load LS into one compartment,K sauce into the other(where normal people put detergents). Then load your finishing sauce where Jet dry goes.
I have had success using my Maverick Remote to monitor water temps and the dry cycle.I stick the wire out the top of the dishwasher.Hope this process it doesn't void the warranty on Dishwasher..

Well, if we have to be normal to use this forum there's gonna be a BUNCH of us banned!

Ok Smokin, which of us are "Normal?" You da man makin' the decisions...! LOL

Let's just say the "inmates are running the asylum"

Jerky dries out quicker in the dryer. For additional aroma, throw in a sheet of Bounce.

It scares me to think that some "newbie" has just logged on and read all of this!!!!!!!
And what's even scarier is the fact that he/she is in their kitchen right now trying all of this.
"and you know that its possible too"

Now if we could just make it look like those three cornish hens were having this discussion we'd have to get a copyrite,,This thread gets my vote for funniest of 2005 !!!

GOOD JOB FOKLS,,LOL

I don't know what SmokinOkie's problem is. I even add liquid smoke to my bath water. You can never have too much artificial flavoring or aroma. Hum, maybe we should invent some smoke soap on a rope.

Wow! Nice idea Dr.!

guys you forgot the TQ!!!!!!!!
the ls gives ya the smell, the TQ gives ya the smoke ring, and the foil (shiny in or out doesn't matter) gives ya the neat irreplaceable metallic overtones!!!!!
jack
ps. but if ya gonna use ls make sure it is haddon house unless you favor the metallic vinegary undertones

Smoke on a Rope is agreat name for it. You could probably take cakes of Ivory soap and put them on a tray in the smoker with some apple wood.After smoking and cooling, wrap in foil,shiny side out, tie around with butcher's twine.

What a nice gift set for the holidays.

Funny Sandraven hasn't come back.
