Aussie BBQ Forum

Hi all, I have bought a pit boss vertical smoker from bunnings. It doesnt seem to be smoking very much, I am using apple wood pellets, not sure if whats going on. Is this normal? It seems to be like a oven. Any sugestions would be great.

looks great just watched a recipe for lamb shanks on gorden ramsey you tube channel yours looked better haha

Hi all i want to get a fire pit that i can also use for a bit of cooking we live on 4000 sqm block so size is not really a issue some ideas would be great Cheers craig

Did you have to fry them off a bit first or is there enough fat in the crackle to make them crispy when you put them on the grill Cheers Craig.

I did try that but maybe not long enough will give it another go cheers

How do you keep the akorn so clean mines is no where close to yours

try rubbing that sweet baby rays all over the ribs leave for 2 days then smoke them it comes out a treat trust me

Titch one of the best . Glad to here your onto the beefcheeks

Well Titch thanks for putting me onto these as you can see juicy tasty goodness dont want to praise them too much people will buy them and put the price up will def do them again :P . PS i will be doing a beefcheek lasagna in the next few weeks i will post the recipe for you to cheek out its really ...

Wollies sell it for 19 dollars a kg if yoy can get it there . My butcher in yeppoon have it for around 12 a kg and has it all the time . Its a great cut cook it really fast or really slow no good for stewing . I use it in beef stirfrys soooo goood

About 8 hours Titch this is about half way put some more baby rays on and some stock and covered it

Got one on lets see how it goes Thanks for the idea Titch

No only aussie butchers i do have a mate who runs a cattle farm though i might try him. Dont see him very often but. They all are charging the same for osso bucco as for a hole shin .

Hi Titch what smoker are you running with?. I got a price from a few butchers up here and they range from 12.50 to 15 bucks a KG . The weight ranges from about 1.5 to 3 kg might just get 1 and see how it goes. Cheers Craig

GEE $6.50 a kg thats great i was wondering how big are they . I am pretty sure that i will be paying more than 6.50 a kg pretty strange cause i live in the beef capital of Australia. i will let you know how i go .Cheers Craig.
