Success!

Former Member

This is a great forum! Everyone is so willing to help.

Thanks for all the suggestions to get my temp probe to fit into the vent of my Smokette. Got it in today without too much trouble - straightening a little, pulling from inside - and its working just fine.

I have a corned beef in there now using the Pastrami directions found in the forum. Looking for success #4 with this recipe. First cook was strip steaks (I needed instant gratification after waiting three days for rain to stop). They were great! Next was pork tenderloins, then spareribs - all good. I have been following cooking suggestions in the forums here and then checking with the CS cookbook to compare.

I think the most important thing everyone here does is to help and encourage each other's cooking endeavors, especially us newbies so we won't be so intimidated by a few snags. Thanks for all the help.

Oh - you're gonna love the corned beef Pastrami!

My experience so far has been to ignore the CS cookbook, and use the recipes on here. I've also had pretty good success using the recipes from the "Smoke and Spice" book.

Enjoy!
