But I'm normally well on the way to being a tad tipsy when I eat them in the pub?

I did this the very first time I failed to smoke a rack as I should have! Gave up because I was unable, on the day, to control the temperature and whacked them in the slow cooker out of desperation, lovely they were. it was at that moment the memsahib asked the killer question "why did you waste all that money on the smoker" I love her really, honest.?

Justin what type of bags do you use if adding a liquid marinade? Are standard zip lock bags OK or is it better to use the press type? I know I cant use the vac ones because it tends to draw any liquid out of the pouch during the sealing! Or am I doing wrong?

Had something similar last weekend, dried up roast pork, crackling so salty I thought I was following down Lot's wife's road. I had taken a whole bunch of knockwurst which I'd lovingly made and smoked, I love these little devils and so am a little touchy about any adverse comments, and got the same thing "oh these sausage things are like the ones you can get in Lidl" No there bloody not you utter twonk! was what I wanted to say but settled for sulking in the corner of the garden. Grrrrrrr?

I'm seriously researching as I type! My mind is working on using a commercial deep fat fryer that is taking up room in a kitchen cupboard because the wife don't like the smell of frying! This could work, combined with the clip on unit, to work as my first bath!! Deep enough, length not perfect but more than adequate for steaks, fish, pork loin, etcetera.?
-
True very true. To be honest I never realised you could use pretty much any container to cook in! As I said I'd only ever seen, in use, industrial versions which were all big stainless steel tanks with heating elements hidden underneath, a bit like a giant fish fryer? Never knew you could get units that clipped on the side of any container you happened to have available? I am interested, very...

14 lbs of brisket is a whole lot of meat!?
-
You know what, I may just look a whole lot more deeply into this! I already have a vacuum sealer and rolls of the plastic stuff so I'm halfway there and to be honest I've never had a bad meal with food cooked this way. Yep I think this could be on the 'treat myself' list. Need to go and do some more research on exactly what I may need as opposed to what I want just because it has shiny lights, buzzers and such like!! Any and all suggestions are most welcome.?

Cheers Justin I'm watching a video on UT of a guy cooking a 14 pound brisket! So he's smoked it for the first three hours then vacuum packed it and placed it in what looks like a large fish tank and cooked it at 140f for 62hrs! So based on what I'm seeing you can basically use any container that is both long and deep enough? Would that be fairly accurate?
-
Brian how do you use, or I should say what do you use to cook stuff in? I've only ever seen the industrial versions with large baths and the heating element at the bottom!

Thank you sir, I, for one, feel so much better for that...

Great success, these pellets gave a very fine and pleasant smoke ring to a leg of Lamb that was grilled today (Tuesday 4th Sep) using a very nice rub supplied by Wayne.
-
Well done to Wayne. I'm in the good books with the memsahib for cooking a lovely leg of Lamb smothered in Wayne's suggested rub. I also followed you're wet marinade, with a tiny tweak, and started adding that halfway through the cook just to add a nice glaze. I recommend this rub to the house and request permission for a rousing chorus of hip hip hooray's very loudly!!!?

Oh even I don't need 5XL I just like T-Shirts to be a little baggy to allow for internal stretching!?
-
As soon as I loose enough weight and developed a six pack to be proud of instead of drinking one! Then and only then will I be looking for for that T-Shirt, well unless XXXL is on the menu!!?
